I hope they make new music

this is great news

i am very excited

wasn't big on the last one but 3 cheers and black parade are bomb

*screams in excitement*

*gets out the old eyeliner*

Hard to think of many more significant rock bands from the 21st century - at least the first decade. They were an absolute phenomenon, peak saturation was when news broadcasters started airing pieces aimed at concerned parents about how to handle your child 'turning emo'. But despite the hysteria they always nailed the tongue-in-cheek theatrics and were so tight and high energy. Can't wait to see more from them.

i saw billy talent open for these guys and i have to say they were farrrr better than mcr. mcr suffers from the vocals being wayyyy too drowned out by the music. that shit has ruined so many live bands for me.

MCR live is transcendental I don't care how astute or well founded your criticisms are Gyro, that's a holy cow you don't fuck with
Even if this ends up as another Danger Days news is dope

idk man, i've had other friends see them live, as well as checked out some live performance and the sound design has always been so shit. the mixing is just so bad. all the instrumentation is there and it's great but the vocals are practically inaudible

This is the best day of my life lmao
Fuck

WHEN I WAS

Yes Yes Yes epic news welcome back!!! Hopefully a new record is in the works

nandato

Fantastic news! Gonna do a discography revisit today. It's been too long.

Gotta love MCR. I hope they record some new music. Great news.

just read gerard way and joe rogan were cousins?

Yeah, they announced the reunion on his podcast, what a time to be alive

im happy about this! Would love to see black parade live, particularly the track Mama

A YOUNG BOY

Not the biggest fan of these guys, but Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge was sweet so more of that please.

MUH FATHER

TOOK ME INTO THE CITY

TO SEEEEE A MARCHING BAAAND

Anyone who hasnt I implore you to check out the Conventional Weapons series of singles they did post danger days. A lot of amazing song writing and energy on those. This is so exciting!

obligatory: I AM NOT AFRAID TO KEEP ON LIVING

Famous Last Words > Welcome to the Black Parade.
Of course Helena > all, though.

Thank You for the Venom is their best song but yes at the Famous Last Words love

Uh hum* "This Is How I Disappear" is best.

OK top MCR songs list incoming

actually I just realized I only like 2 of their albums, I just happened to LOVE them, so someone else should make the list posthaste

Last album was garbage though

Yeah, but Conventional Weapons was p sweet

@Gyro fair fair, I guess fanboyism > sound design in some cases (though that said I've seen some of my favourite groups live and have been majorly underwhelmed as a result of sound design hmm)

This is awesome, highkey hoping more dates get announced or some new jams

WHERE THE FUCK IS MY EYELINER

new album PLEASE

Famous Last Words GOAT let’s be real

I AM NOT AFRAID TO KEEP ON LIVING

I AM NOT AFRAID TO WALK THIS EARTH ALONE

HONEY, IF YOU STAY I'LL BE FORGIVEN

NOTHIN YOU CAN SAY CAN STOP ME GOIN HOME

That made me well up a bit *sniff sniff*

A beautiful moment there bud

i'm so glad we're all happy omfg.

For real, it’s wonderful lol

I’m not okllaaaaayyyyyy

TRUST ME

Band stinks

Boy Division fucks so hard. I just want an album like that

[2]

lmfao Pitchfork making an article about this

back in 2010 if you asked them to review Danger Days they probably would've sent you anthrax spores in the mail

Boy Division top 3 MCR glad we all agree

Top 5 but yes

I detest this band but I'm glad you guys are excited

boy division is a jam

band stinks OF TIGHT SONGWRITING

gotem

Three Cheers is the only album from them I really enjoy but this is cool.

^^^

3rd’d

With the amount of bizarre news happenings this month i'm convinced CM Punk is about to return to pro wrestling

I DONT LOVE YOU, LIKE I DID YESTERDAAAAAYYYYY

Are they gonna do more than 1 concert? If that's all then I dont care

I remember when I was swiping my laptop while practicing guitar, I literally dropped my pick when I saw the news, along with my jaw. I am a little mixed despite the surprise though, since I worried whether can they recapture that fiery glory of their early days, but hey I am still happy that they are back!

Is this sicker news than emmure reuniting? Discuss

my facebook feed is not okay

kevin smith says he's the one who got gerard back into music so everyone go see clerks 3 when it comes out. and sit through the whole thing too

Not the best news, now my wife may 'force' (well, guilt trip perhaps) me to go and see them... presuming they will eventually expand this to the UK.

i legitimately am excited

Love the random Boy Division love bumpin in here. I remember jamming that in my car at full volume after breaking up with an ex.

MCR for Coachella headliner 2020

Everybody talking about their best song but no one has mentioned Mama? Disgraceful

House of Wolves

y'all, Cubicles is their best. or Give Em Hell Kid

Never got into this band that much, as long as it's not danger days again I'm sure it'll be fine.

So y'all are sayin they are good live? If they do a tour I'll definitely be sure to go.

Fact A) Three Cheers is their best album
Fact B) This Is How I Disappear is their best song though.

*Facts not actually facts

Gonna join the hype in posting unintentionally funny live videos

@botb that reminded me of this unintentionally hilarious video

Good find!

Even though what I'm about to say is somewhat from a biased perspective; I dont think post-hardcore really needs another MCR. I've been enjoying the direction that some of these post hardcore bands have gone in recent years (Glassjaw, Thrice, Soasion,Circa Survive, ..even State Faults) I'm just personally turned off by the eyeliner, self-mutilating gimmicky side of it. Like I said-I'm a bit biased though, even during the mid-00's I couldnt stand MCR, The Used, and Hawthorne Heights. I like post hardcore now because it feels like a bit of a progression from what was going on in the early 00's

They're not post hardcore ... MCR is more akin to FOB and Panic! than Thrice, Saosin and Circa.

Idk, MCR had some post-hardcore influence early on. Their first album is mostly post-hardcore (just listen to Skylines and Turnstiles, Honey this Mirror, Drowning Lessons, etc.) and their second album was like a blend of post-hardcore and pop punk. Their most popular songs always leaned more towards pop punk/pop rock though, and they basically abandoned most of their post-hardcore stuff after three cheers. Fall Out Boy is a decent comparison, but I would say they have more in common with Thrice and Saosin than Panic! at the Disco.

first album def had a post hardcore sound

second too

Sure their old stuff definitely had more in line with thrice and saosin than panic, but when they were on their way out they had much more in common with FOB, Panic, AFI or the likes (you know the emo-pop/hot topic shirt scene).

My point is that no one has to worry about MCR diluting or redirecting the post-hardcore scene ... they just are no longer a part of it.

ah yea theyre def removed from it now

And to be honest, I hope to see a new emo-pop scene rise from the ashes with their return and pass the fun onto the next generation :-)

shoutouts to Demolition Lovers for still being a pretty damn good song.

That's easily one of their best songs

They can fuck off for asking 1k for a ticket. That's just exploitative.

Fuckin A, are you serious? A little of themselves if so lol.

Clowns will pay

Idk why they thought one show would be enough considering their christ like level of popularity in the emo scene. That just makes it ripe of ticket sale abuse from scalpers and ticket sites

^

OMG ratm and mcr! mb rock music is not kill?

yeah im thinking rock is back

why are people acknowledging this

Tickets are $150, these are probably resale or something. Also, I think they're just doing one show for now. I've heard insiders say that they're planning more.

Sure their old stuff definitely had more in line with thrice and saosin than panic, but when they were on their way out they had much more in common with FOB, Panic, AFI or the likes (you know the emo-pop/hot topic shirt scene).

Early sunsets over monroeville is a classic as well. I enjoy the more melodic melancholic stuff from I brought you bullets overall but it feels way differnt than the melodic stuff from three cheers.

wack ass band

this made my entire year omg
