I love the new My Chemical Romance album?! How did this happen? It's fucking good!

What makes "The Black Parade" so exciting isn't anything rock is quite used to.... My Chemical Romance

Huh. I've been avoiding listening to it, but this has got me curious now...

[blankboy]

It's a mix between Green Day, Queen, Pink Floyd and...emo I guess.

[blankboy]

Naw, it's more comedic and not pompous, much. Doesn't sound anything like that.

seriously?

*gasp*

*faint*

*thunk*

*shudder*

*dies*

[blankboy]

Have you heard it? I thought the same thing until I listened to it. Snob.

[sanderella_]

No no, I like it.... but that's MY cheesy emo taste in music coming out. Of COURSE I like it! Have you seen the video for Black Parade? It's very Smashing Pumpkins goth.... Nicely done.

What's shocking me is that YOU like it. YOU'RE the music snob. ;)

[blankboy]

It's shocking to me too but good is good I guess.

Maybe good just isnt my thing. I can't hear that single without wanting to kick Gerard Way directly in his whiney vocal chords.
Is the rest of the album better, on par, or worse? Fuck it, never mind, if it's supposed to be so damned good i guess i should find out for myself. Either that, or i should dig out my eardrums now - they're promoting the shit out of that band and there's no avoiding them otherwise.

I like the single so maybe it's just not for you Mr. FancyPants.
