My Chemical Freak: My Chemical Romance All The Time

Danger Days: The Perfect Rock Album?

|

It is probably too early to say this, but based on little more than a really awesome trailer and a really long title, I’m going to declare that My Chemical Romance’s Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys is the perfect rock-and-roll album.    – MTV.com

So My Chemical Romance’s new single just premiered on air today. To the best of my knowledge it was first played on WRFF in Philadelphia and then on Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1, and finally on KROQ in Los Angeles.

On the BBC, Lowe also had a short interview with Gerard Way, who talked about the Weezer show last night. He said when Rivers Cuomo found out that My Chemical Romance was going to be at the show he insisted MCR play a song with Weezer. Gerard also said he was happy with the new album and excited to start touring. He said, “We really feel like we get to start our lives again.” He also said that this week the band is finishing the final artwork for the album.

If you missed the premier of the song on WRFF, BBC Radio 1, and KROQ there’s nothing to worry about because you can listen to a stream of the song right here. Enjoy!

Small Details Released Slowly on New MCR Album

USA Today’s Fall Music Preview says:

My Chemical Romance, Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys (November)

 Auditing the sound: Frontman Gerard Way and company had finished a raw rock album last year, then chucked it and started over after getting signals from a fresh muse. While not a concept album like 2006′s The Black Parade, Danger Days represents a transmission blasted from the future, according to the band. Planetary (GO!) and Na Na Na are among the confirmed tracks produced by Rob Cavallo and recorded in Calabasas, Calif. No other specifics have been leaked, and the band’s blog advises fans to “look alive, keep your ears to the ground and your eyes bloodshot and open … there are signs everywhere.”
