My Chemical Freak: My Chemical Romance All The Time

Gerard, Mikey, and Ray sat down with the Sydney-based radio station Nova 96.9 for a short interview in which they discuss their new single, “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”, and the band’s new direction. CLICK HERE to watch the interview.

For those of you who want to sing along to MCR’s new single “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”, but aren’t too sure about the lyrics, an excellent video has been posted HERE on the official My Chemical Romance YouTube account that is basically a literal depiction of the words in the song.

What do you guys think of the video? Would you like to see more of these in the future? I know I sure do. :]

Also, check out the new picture uploaded to MCR’s official site (pictured above; you can also click on it to see the full size file). It’s an image of the newspaper Frank was reading in “Art Is the Weapon”. The only thing I can really make out from it is “©Photos provided by S/C/A/R/C/R[/O/W]“, which is the name of one of the upcoming songs from the new album. Most of the rest is unreadable because it’s in lorem ipsum (look it up).

My Chemical Romance’s newest single, “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” is now available for purchase! The album version of the single (as opposed to the already-released radio edit) can be bought from various online music store such as Amazon.com MP3 ($0.99), the iTunes Store ($1.29), and Rhapsody ($0.99).

UPDATE:

It looks like the single is only available in North America, but for those of you in the United Kingdom the single will be available on November 8, 2010.

NOTICE:  This is strictly speculation that has been circulating the internet.  We cannot as of right now confirm or deny the mystery single.  Could be a fan made photo.

Seems as though another single could be released on top of “Na Na Na” tomorrow, which was a song intended for their first incarnation of the album, which got scrapped, called “Bulletproof Heart”. Here is the single cover art for the song. It looks pretty legit, and very similar to “Na Na Na”.

Lyrics had leaked from this song some time ago, and are easy to find, but have undoubtedly changed since then. Now it looks like the song may be making its first appearance tomorrow.

Check back for more news on this as it comes, I will update this post with the final word when tomorrow hits.

Stay well, Killjoys

Dan Martin of NME got a change to listen the the new album, Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, and he has a lot to say. To say he liked the album is an understatement; he got to listen the first attempt at the album and he thinks the final incarnation is a BIG improvement:

‘Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys’ changes the game in exactly the same way ‘The Black Parade’ did, while managing to be completely different from it in every single way.

It channels the band’s genius tastes for the absurd and the outlandish into a record in gleeful love with the macho pleasures of old school rock’n’roll. The jazz hands aren’t visible to the naked eye, but they’re there in spirit. …

This is the best rock record of the year by such a margin that you actually feel rather embarrassed for everybody else. This isn’t over-excitement. In 2010’s final act, consider rock’n’roll saved. — Dan Martin
