My Chemical Romance confirm new album
My Chemical Romance have revealed details of their long-awaited fourth album.
As has been speculated, the album will be titled ‘Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys’ and released later this autumn.
The band have posted a teaser trailer at Mychemicalromance.com. The Tarantino-style clip sees the band listening to a pirate radio broadcast and dressed in biker gear, with Gerard Way sporting bright red hair.
The clip then goes on to flash slogans “Art is the weapon / against life as a symptom / defend yourself / the aftermath is secondary”.
The album was planned for release earlier in the year, with tracks previewed including ‘Bullet Proof Heart’ and ‘Black Dragon Fighting Society’. Way had promised a “stripped down” new direction, but the band went back to work on the record again following the departure of Bob Bryar.

Some in-studio pics

Hey all! Hope everyone is good. Quick update on the happenings here in MCR land.We’re almost done tracking the record, and then moving on to mixing. This process has been really different and enlightening. When we went to Tokyo for the Summersonic shows, we came back recharged and remotivated, wanting to better what we had done before we left. What resulted was us writing some of our best songs on the record. Lesson learned? Sometimes you have to step back to get to the real heart of things…
Photo-shoot today, and damn’t none of my old clothes fit! Either time to go shopping, or time to hit a gym. Neither are choices I like…
Mine and Christa’s dog Bauer, who I posted a picture of a few weeks ago, has been diagnosed with CRF – chronic renal failure – which is insane for a dog his age. He’s three, and very sick. Unfortunately, its something that you wouldn’t pick up on until its too late. We decided to bring him back home to Jersey where he can run in the grass and play, and luckily that seems to be making him feel better. The doctors out here are surprised at how well he looks considering the severity of his condition. He’s a tough little guy.
Putting some pictures up from in studio. Enjoy!
