Amazon.co.uk Review
Emo might be swiftly shaping up to be the sound of disenfranchised 21st Century youth, but one listen to The Black Parade raises serious doubts that the genre will prove big enough to contain My Chemical Romance. The third studio album from this New Jersey quintet breaks new ground in grandiosity, an ambitious parade of passionate emotional hardcore, political ire and pantomime frivolity set to a scope seldom seen since the days of Queen. Any moping is short-lived: frontman Gerard Way might sing "If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see/You can find out firsthand what it's like to be me" on the opening "The End", but it's really just a new beginning, the band sweeping back a curtain to reveal a suite of frantically enjoyable outsider anthems. Importantly, MCR have a humour many of their peers lack: "Mama", featuring guest vocals from Liza Minnelli, appears to be a satire of the Iraq war set to a jumpy polka beat; meanwhile, the Hoodie Generation gets its own tongue-in-cheek anthem with "Teenagers" ("They said all/Teenagers scare/The living **** out of me"). Impassioned, inspired and amusing, The Black Parade takes the bar set by Green Day's American Idiot and raises it one notch higher.-–Louis Pattison
Description
Third album from the New Jersey emo-punk titans, following 2004's 'Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge', swaps the grand guignol concept of that album for an even more ambitious one following the story's protagonist into death and beyond. Produced by Rob Cavallo (Green Day's 'American Idiot'), this marks an ambitious progression for the band and goes far beyond the scope of mere "punk", encompassing the pomp and theatricality of 70s pop and prog rock. Includes the single 'WelcomeTo The Black Parade'.
