Cygnatti - I don't enjoy the all the drama around the record. This is more immediate.

Thanks Greg! I stopped listening to them a few years ago, but this is solid. Out of all tracks here "Boy Division" and "Tomorrow's Money" might be closest to your thing.

Your first sentence summed up everything about this compilation.

I wonder what prompted them to release Danger Days.

Apparently they freaked out when they realised that with their age their persona was becoming drier and more corporate, or something like that. So they tried to do the exact opposite

they are all about story telling and being theatrical, plus they weren't having any fun while writing conventional weapons

I wonder then what direction will they take for the next record, because they hadn't had that much success with Danger Days.

It had a fair amount of success, not what it was expected though, they even ran out of money to finish the killjoy videos. But I'm sure the new record will be something totally different to DD

Initially released as 5 separate 2 track EPs, 'Conventional Weapons' compiles all 10 songs into what is essentially My Chemical Romance's 5th (even if it was recorded before their 4th) studio LP. Surprisingly cohesive considering those circumstances, this so-called scrapped album was far too good not to see the light of day. Containing the energy of 'Three Cheers...', dramatics of 'The Black Parade' & fun of 'Danger Days...', this is an intriguing listen which fans will undoubtedly enjoy. And yes, the scrapped LP is better than the officially released one! Recommended Tracks: Boy Division, The World Is Ugly, The Light Behind Your Eyes & Ambulance.

I didn't mind them, but I wish they released whatever they were working on. It could be as good as this.

Much better for them to go out on this than Danger Days.

"Really pathetic if something like that actually makes you happy."

Not pathetic at all. They were a terrible band. Intentional sell-outs from the time they formed -
type. Let merpmerp indulge in this momentous occasion
