"My Chemical Romance is this generation's Nirvana"

Ha, not quite. It just never fails to amuse me when people get all worked up and spend so much time on something they hate. I'd much rather spend that energy on something I like. Then again, I am on this thread.

http://www.imnotokay.net/data/board-smilies/icon_mad.gif Grrrr....this person is an asshole. If people dont like My Chemical Romance, then thats their choice, I dont care, but to do something like this makes me want to find them and beat them up. http://www.imnotokay.net/data/board-smilies/icon_mad.gif Also, the idiot doesnt seem smart enough to come up with any other 'insult' than fag. http://www.imnotokay.net/data/board-smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif They're just jealous because My Chemical Romance is an amazing band with loads of talent.

A lot of people are very personal about pop music, whether that's right or wrong. To most people pop stars mean a lot more than politicians. The optimist in me says that maybe that's because most people have little faith in our political systems (that's optimistic?). But I think it's more likely people just find it uninteresting and don't care. Anyway, considering the amount of people who think they relate to MCR I think we need to keep an eye on our pop stars too.

Myspace is the place where teenagers are hanging out and spending all their time, trying to meet other people like themselves. It's where many people live their life.

As posted by Doran just now over on the Avenged Sevenfold thread, in reference to when he met MCR for a story:

I was so gauche when I first met them in Manchester. I had this idea 'Punk band over from New Jersey. I know Manchester like the back of my hand, I'll take them out on the town. It'll be amazing.'

Then I got on to the tour bus about midnight after the gig (with Gerrard Way's exhortations about doing lines and getting wasted and punk rock still ringing in my ears) and *literally* one of them *was* wearing pyjamas and they were all arguing over which D&D DVD to watch. You know: the kid's animated series. I went out with their drummer (who didn't remain in the band long afterwards) and the two support bands and, did, literally meet them on the way to see a 9am showing of the new Harry Potter movie as we were crawling out of some post-Jilly's Rock World hell hole in China Town.

It wasn't a Damascene experience but I did kind of get then how big they were going to be and did admire them in a way I hadn't previously. I liked the fact that they were geeks who were into Pulp and Flock Of Seagulls as well as the non-violent 'message' of Black Flag and comics and tats and all the other stuff. Sooner that than some bunch of Dawn of the Dead style Babyshambles group.

that is the greatest story in the world.

thread title otm

especially in regard to t-shirts

5 years since Hesitant Alien.

hmmmmmmmmm

Is something happening

hard to confirm whether people have actual information or are just leading me on, as if halloween were april fool's day part 2. it's not!!!!

(but there are more reunion whispers than usual online)

(i still don't believe it)

(but *x files voice* i want to)

"We're coming back together...to back Gerard's cousin Joe Rogan on tour."

all right, i'm p sure it's happening

So joe jonas wasn’t lying huh?

joe jonas never lies

Gerard is never gonna release any of last year's solo singles on vinyl is he?

At least one official reunion show.

https://pitchfork.com/news/my-chemical-romance-announce-reunion-show/

happy halloween to me

i'm not ok (i promise)

My Chemical Romance is this generations Bullet For My Valentine.

Doesn't sound like a proper reunion tbh

in what way, beyond only one show being announced

starting your statement with "My Chemical Romance is done" makes it seem to me there will be no new material forthcoming

which tbh is all I care about cause I can't do big/pricey gigs anyway

that’s a quote from when they disbanded

it’s a confusingly ordered pfork news post tbf

Ahhhhh I see. Durrr.

the best mcr song is still "summertime"

I've been drafting a list of my favourite songs of the 10s and "Summertime" is in the top five.

i stopped short of calling it the best song ever but......................it is

the other best mcr song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQndQV9E8C8

i didn't end up voting for three cheers or black parade in the '00s poll because, like, no mcr album is perfect, but the cumulative effect of their work is more powerful than any album

I fell asleep right before the announcement yesterday, but it looks like I picked a good year to become an MCR stan. (Always liked them but didn't get heavily into the records until earlier this year and am pretty obsessed now).

My current jam is Destroya! (destroya, destroya, destroya, destroya, ah ah ah ah, ah, ah)

the second half of danger days >>>>>>>>>

ya, basically that entire stretch from "S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W" to "The Kids of Yesterday" rules

we can leave this world leave it all behind
we can steal this car if your folks don't mind
we can live forever if you've got the time
YOU MOTHERFUCKER
(whoaaaaa)

help i've fallen down an MCR youtube hole and can't get out

need to stop myself before I get to the Frerard corner so here's "Summertime" acoustic:

dreaming of a new album produced by justin meldal-johnson

judging by the reunion related tiktok activity this post’s inciting statement was otm

tried to take a stab at a POX for fun but realized it literally had to be at least a POXV just to scratch the surface. insane density of great songs.

Headfirst for halos
I never told you what I do for a living
You know what they do to guys like us in prison
Hang 'em high
Helena
Teenagers
This is how I disappear
Disenchanted
Kill all your friends
Bulletproof heart
Save yourself, I'll hold them back

Summertime
We don't need another song about california
Make room

i love how every song on Danger Days sounds completely different from the one preceding it but as an album, is laserlike in concept and execution. really wish i had given them a chance sooner.

The idea that My Chemical Romance is this generation's Nirvana is ridiculous to them. It's probably ridiculous to most of the people who read this blog, but to the average 16 year old kid, Nirvana is irrelevant in comparison to My Chem.

I don’t think it’s that ridiculous to compare My Chemical Romance to Nirvana, but I do think that the notion that Nirvana should be somehow more relevant to a 16 year old in 2006 than My Chemical Romance is. Is the writer expecting music to get stuck in 1993 for the rest of its existence?

The idea that Billie Eilish is this generation's Madonna is ridiculous to them. It's probably ridiculous to most of the people who read this forum, but to the average 16 year old kid, Madonna is irrelevant in comparison to Eilish
