My Chemical Romance,

any one else excited?!

Nope.

Nope.

Same here.

mcr are shit

NO!!!

i heard their new single,pretty boring.

I like mcr, but no.

im more excited about the new beck release on tuesday

:thumbsdown:

If I do not manage to purchase this album on the day of its release, I will most probably eat my own foot in frustration.

uh ohhh emoooo

also:

mcr are shit

its out and it is pinical of MCR's life so far. (!)

Well that must be pretty depressing for them I guess.

I brother bought it and I burnt it off him and now I wish I burnt him instead and kept my blank cd :(

MCR are a pile of crap. nuff said.

Dont like it no offence.

The song comes on the music channels alot Ugh!

no thx

its out and it is pinical of MCR's life so far. (!)

You have got to be kidding! Nothing is capable of topping their last album, I do believe it is the best album ever released.

I've heard it all, tbh it kinda sucked. :(

one or two notable songs, that's about it.

its out and it is pinical of MCR's life so far. (!)

you mean the whiny voice and the tunes which are actually stolen from queen? like, no kidding, actually thieved from freddy and co

there ok but i'm not excited ROFL :)

I'm as emo as they come yet I think this new album ain't gonna have anything exciting enough on it for me to purchase... Welcome To The Black Parade; the song is pretty aweful in my opinion also.

Welcome to the black parade isn't very good, I agree, but I still like the album alot. It's not the best album I've heard, but far from being the worst.

I was listening to the radio today and they played the song about the dad and being emo and the skank presenter was like "I wonder if in 20 years people are going to get drunk and sing that song with their mates much like people do these days with Bohemian Rhapsody" and I was so shocked that I nearly fell over and dislocated my other knee

I was in the shower you see

Nope.

Oh. God. o_O

I'm personally extremely excited for this album! I haven't gotten it yet but I am tomorrow.

I bought the album, I like the style (quite clearly inspired by Queen, one of my all-time favourite bands) and Black Parade is my favourite song, closely followed by the hidden track at the end.

dammit! - double post!

More like ripped-off Queen.

Freddy must be spinning in his grave :(

Better to spin than rise up and eat other's brains!

*plays House of Wolves*

ugh

emo fags, cut a little deeper next time

i wouldnt listen to mcr if you paid me

I'll probably pick it up eventually, but I'm most certainly not in any rush, nor am I excited by their new release by any means. MCR's not bad, as there are worse bands in the genre *cough* Good Charlotte *cough* Simple Plan *cough*.

Anyone who knows me knows that in my mind, hating emo for it simply being in the emo category is retarded. Disliking certain music shouldn't be based on a stereotype, but, to each their own. But when ppl like Razorbunny here say something such as this:


ugh

It's really quite irritating. I like a LOT of emo music, but, I think most people can tell I'm very far from depressed, and I don't take razorblades to my skin. Dislike the music, that's fine with me. I disliked it a first too (since I actually am a metalhead first and foremost), but, I like a lot of it now.

Carry on.

sorry

emo's piss me off

i hate a lot of the fans too, but hating the music simply because of its label is ludicrous.

well what if i hate the music, because its, well, utter crap?

If you've listened to a decent amount of it, and dislike it, then it's a matter of taste and obviously that's fine... I still maintain that MCR is a rather poor example of good emo/punk music though, even though they are certainly not awful IMO.

Agreed.

Carry on.

simple plan is not emo. simple plan is canadian. Canada is not emo.

no anger intended here
Canadas' cool, they have a flag with a leaf on it,
doesnt get much better then that.

My Chemical Romance genre is not Emo, it is Punk Rock... Neirther is Simple Plan but I'm not sure what they are classed as.

actually both bands are pop groups, they make pop music.

If you say so.

My Chemical Romance genre is not Emo, it is Punk Rock... Neirther is Simple Plan but I'm not sure what they are classed as.

call it what you want. its still total shit.

If you say so.

My Chemical Romance are not a punk rock band. They are closer to like Glam Rock.

i say mrc's punkish ;but whatever, simple plan are more pop rock.

mcr are fucking horrible i hate them with every ounce of my body and soul!!

MCR classifies themselves as 'Emo.' Now I dislike the emo music scene. Probably because it is just a bunch of over-used power chords and high pitched singing.
But when someone says, "Hey, I am an emo." I want to punch them in their throat. You see, I live in Arizona, and in case you did not know it is the Emo Music Scene Capital of the United States of America.
That means, I have to watch a bunch of bitches running around flipping their hair in the eyes and taking MySpace pictures half-nude in their bathroom mirrors.

So let me clarify:

Emo is not a dress style or race of person, it is a music genre.

Back to MCR, their music was never good but a lot of young angsty teens could relate to the over dramatized states of depression.
That is the only way they could've gotten popular. Soon, they will decay like the other Emo/Screamo bands that have fallen before them.
Because now the cool thing is the 'Hardcore' music genre. Which closely resembles the old 70's punk style but is added by low growling sounds by the vocalist.
This type of music opens up mosh pits where the world's youth can hit kids with their elbows and build up their egos.


It's all bullshit in my opinion.

I learned how to make an origami crane today.

But did you learn how to make 1000 of them?


Also, back on my rant.

I like some Indie music. Which is like slowed down and really light on the ears. It is nice when you are tired or just feel like crap.
But everyone mistakes it for emo music, and it is not.
So fyi, Indie and Emo.
There is a difference.

But did you learn how to make 1000 of them?
No ;_;; But I actually had a 50 question Chemistry exam today that I completed in 2 minutes and handed it. Multiple choice has it's benefits, especially when your teacher is a half-wit wench and you don't learn anything. But anyway, I sat and made a crane farm.

Also, I listen to a bunch of stuff, more so of the stuff that isn't in English. Jpop, Jrock, OSTs, so on and so forth. Though I do have quite a library of multiple kinds of music.

You see, I live in Arizona, and in case you did not know it is the Emo Music Scene Capital of the United States of America. I was always under the impression (and I am pretty sure I am right) that emo was mostly spawned in the midwest and retains it's highest amounts of popularity there. Mostly like Ohio, parts of Missouri, Illinois, Michigan, and to a lesser extent Minnesota and Wisconsin. This might also include Iowa if they make music in Iowa which I am not sure they do. Iowa is possibly the most boring state in the union.

Also, emo is barely a music genre really, it goes pretty much undefined musically. It originally was an off shoot of punk and hardcore music and maintains the simplistic style for the most part but when most people label a band as emo it is because of the lyrics or even more often because of how the band dresses. It is kind of just a pop culture meme right now that is being marketed to hell and very successfully. I don't really know where I am going with any of this I am just kind of rambling on about a million different things and if you are still reading I guess you are pretty cool by me. There is nothing of substance to be derived here.

so yeah.

Hogan I can agree with you on most of that. But I know that Arizona is big on emo because in about half a year, there were about 8 or 9 bands that started here and went to my school, and ares of Glendale/Peoria Arizona. (Where I live)

Now, they are huge selling records, touring in the UK and scheduled to appear on MTV in the near future.

*insertion* The Black Parade video was definetly Different *insertion*
It scared me a bit.

You know what I really enjoy? I really enjoy smacking my head into a brick wall after spending hours arguing with 2 of my best friends that 'The Black Parade' is an aweful Album by a good band and My Chemical Romance are sliping, getting worse as time goes by.

More like awful album by a crappy band.

I have to say that the people who are against 'emo' are a fucking trend itself. At least that's how I see it. It'd like somebody says "MCR are total fucking shit man, I fucking hate emo," and then other people jump on the bandwagon, and I bet half the people have barely heard a damn song by any of them. That is what irritates me. Give it a listen, if you hate it, then at least you gave a couple of songs a listen. But I HATE it when people say a band is emo, and automatically come the clowns with there 'EMO FUCKING SUCKS, BLAH BLAH BLAH". And, yes, the 'fans' do take it too seriously a lot of times with their stupid makeup and crap, but, whatever. But it's the people who buy into the budding stereotypes that give it the bad name anyways.

And this is coming from a metalhead of sorts. Have a goddamned open fucking mind people.

Let me go back sleep.
You make no sense.
I am emo, My Chemical Romance on the other hand... Are not, I do not get insulted because I am emo.

so yeah.

thank you. im from the mid-west. so peace up to my homies in the bread basket. and what not. as far as i go though, i dont know if im emo. but i ve had like 4 people call me one, but the first 2 times i still didnt know what its was though.

Congratulations for missing the point, and congratulations in mistakenly thinking I was talking about you.

Congratulations for mistakenly thinking that I was mistaken thinking you were talking about me... Pfff I shall rephase that post a tiny little bit.

I bought the first MCR Album and liked maybe one or two of the songs.

But thanks to MySpace and Purevolume, I have had a listen to the debut songs off the new album and I do not like it at all.

But you must realize that any kid is going to do what is cool. So if his friend says MCR sucks then any idiot will think that.
I am not one to judge by the music a person listens to, but it really can tell a lot of what person they are.

And Hardcore has been the hit thing for about a year now, mainly on the west coast.

East Coast > West Coast.

North Coast > South Coast.

and everything > emo

Anyone else find this absolutely hillarious? Because you live in Arizona you have to watch a bunch of bitches take half-nude pictures in their bathroom mirrors? Yeah I know that's not what you meant but you have to admit that sounds damn funny.

Far as MCR is concerned I'm not a fan, if they come on the radio I'm lucky to get through the song without switching stations. But hey that's just my taste and if someone actually does like MCR then the more power to them.

Also I find this entire emo/anti-emo scene to be pretty damn funny in itself, especially since so far I haven't run into many people who can even agree on what the deffinition of emo is. Bet if The Rolling Stones came out today as a new band and their first single was "Paint it Black" there'd be that emo/anti-emo division of people that absolutely love/hate The Rolling Stones just based on the emo label.

your probbly right.
people seem to love/hate bands now-a-days based on apperance and wheather their on FUSE or not over their actual music.

Well it is hard to be on the fence on the whole emo scene because either you like the music or you don't.

I personally do not like it, but that doesn't mean I am going to beat down on every kid who does. What bothers me are the kids who promote their so called 'depression' and relate it to the music.

While I'm not particularly for labelling bands, if MCR classify themselves as Emo, then that is what they are.

I have listened to one or two songs from this album, and have heard much about it.

Here is one thing that annoyed me:

"Welcome to the Black Parade is awesome, you know Lewis. It's a concept album, did you know that?

As if no-one has done concept albums before. I could even say it's becoming more and more commercial to produce concept albums anyway.

Either way, the songs I have heard are abysmal. There is absolutely nothing about them.

A point I have to make, is that I hate Radiohead, with a passion, but I appreciate that they have done something to the Rock genre, they have expanded and influenced other bands. My Chemical Romance are doing nothing but regurgitating ideas from other people, and currently leading a pathetic genre of music which sends the message to fans that life is shit.

In any case, no thanks.

personaly i think the whole emo sucks/ i will defend my emoness with the blood from my rist [love emo] debate is getting out of hand. i say if people want to classify themselfs as emo go ahead. no differnet then being grundge, or punk i sapose. i guess its just because its a new trend or whatever. kinda like how metalheads were scrutenized during the 80's.

It doesn't make you emo to slit your wrists you know, I mean if it did there like wouldn't be many around... I have never slit my wrists eirther before you ask.

No, just the majority of teenagers who do slit their wrists do actually class themselves as emo.

And I daresay the majority of them have little or no reason to do so.

I hate Radiohead, with a passion, but I appreciate that they have done something to the Rock genre, they have expanded and influenced other bands.

pretty much my stance on Radiohead, as anyone who knows me will tell you. also, MCR are utter shit, incase i havent already said it.

Pretty much why I hold no specific regard for MCR. It's one thing to find the music to be alright, it's another to be delusional enough to think they are something ground-breaking.
