No MCR Reunion

2016-07-21 by daysofthunder | 142 Comments
As reported yesterday American rock band My Chemical Romance put up a teaser video alluding to an announced this September.

The band have since posted this message to their Facebook page just a few moments ago:

"We've been really touched and blown away by the response to the teaser trailer. We are not touring and there is no reunion planned - only a release for the anniversary of The Black Parade.

Thanks so much for continuing to keep MCR in your minds and in your hearts."

So it looks like "The Black Parade" will be getting a re-issue this coming fall as part of its tenth anniversary. The album was a platinum-seller and saw the highest chart performance of the group's career.

Black Parade wasn't bad, but had songs that had way too much pop appeal. I always skipped I Don't Love You, Cancer, and Teenagers. That's just me though. Three Cheers was more raw to me.
