"Boy Division" is good! I'd be happy w/ that as a teaser for a new record.

second pair of outtakes is out -- "AMBULANCE" and "Gun." are both great

on cursory first listen the latter seems to stray into quasi-"political" territory, not sure how I feel about this development
― Simon H., Monday, 26 November 2012 14:24 (eleven years ago) link
well they shelved it so it's not really a development at this point haha

I'm just now hearing the DD outtakes on the Mad Gear and Missle Kid EP and they're pretty good!
Tunes on CW vol. 3 are pretty huge.

Gerard put a song on soundcloud under the name 'Danny The Street,' pretty good: http://kroq.cbslocal.com/2012/12/07/my-chemical-romances-gerard-way-releases-punk-track-as-danny-the-street/

OK on sober listen "The Light Behind Your Eyes" is just too broad/soppy for me. Just a step too far into saccharine. On the other hand "Gun" remains ludicrously catchy, though I imagine they'd be in heaps of trouble had it been a single rather than a c-side.

i like all of these songs a lot but i'm also glad they scrapped them and did danger days instead

are these offcuts going to get a physical release at some point ?
― mark e, Monday, 24 December 2012 20:46 (eleven years ago) link
As some sort of boxset, I think.

number four is out today

'kiss that ring' is very QOTSA

thanks for the heads up; #3 was the first set that did nothing for me, those guys really love their boring power ballads

Tim's Continuing Emo Adventures Part Seventeen: my god "Summertime" is just the best thing.

there is something so natural and easy to the movement of the tune, that radio sweetness

also i will forever love the whole concept's art: http://varnishstudio.com/work/danger-days
after you remove yourself from the drip, the conventional weapons eps are good methadone

Yes, the movement. The rises and falls in this tune are so seductive.

tim "summertime" is my favorite mcr song ugh
the tracklist to the hits comp underlines for me that though they had a solid run of singles, they weren't really a singles band, except for in the Black Parade era, which is funny because that's when they made their most obvious Big Statement Album attempt.

'new' song sucks, wish they'd left it at Conventional Weapons
― Waluigi Weingarten (some dude), Wednesday, 19 February 2014 12:41 (ten years ago) link
Yeah it's not great.
― Simon H., Wednesday, 19 February 2014 13:27 (ten years ago) link
“bulletproof heart” and “summertime” are the best songs in the world

yes, and also S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W
I greatly prefer the version of Sing they released for Japan

honestly i’ve made my peace with “sing.” this is their best album
― princess of hell (BradNelson), Tuesday, 7 August 2018 15:05 (five years ago) link
I actually like "Sing"! It's "Planetary" that doesn't work for me
but yeah on balance I think you're right
