The Revenge of My Chemical Romance

It’s crazy to think Gerard literally could’ve joined the 27 club if we kept down the way he was going during/after Revenge

WAKE UP BABE, BEST MCR ERA VIDEO DROPPED

Preach

[@zora4527]

Three Cheers is my favorite of their discography. The just aggression that Frank brought to the music is just so fucking good. While bullets is desperate, the anger is just beautiful.

[@Zimx02]

It's crazy that you think that Frank brought the aggression/anger. wtf i hate this fanbase

[@zora4527]

@@Zimx02 You’re misinterpreting what I’m saying. Frank added a lot to three cheers with his noisier more punk style approach that wasn’t as present on Bullets. Not to mention the energy he brought live. Definitely a lot of the anger does come from Gerard and his vocals, but I’m just saying that without the additions Frank brought the record wouldn’t be what it is. Idk why you’re getting mad about this bro.

[@ShugylaAdilbek]

Lmao 90% of the aggression comes from Gerard. And Bullets was even more aggressive than revenge.

[@Kekktye]

Though the concept album aspect of the album is interesting, the ironic 'being tasked with killing a thousand evil men, only to end up being the last man' and 'lovers separated by death, promised to be revived by the devil only to meet in hell' I think far too many people skip over the album's overarching messaging and song-to-song themes trying to make pieces fit into a story that wasn't meant to be clear-cut. You really have to read into the songs themselves and look at the context of the album's production to understand what they were going for (Though what they were really going for was just Bullets but more accessible). I think this video far and away from other analysis videos does that justice. You hardly hear about much of Revenge's production in online circles beyond the surface-level points of Life on the Murder Scene or soying out about the aesthetics and nostalgia.

[@MapleFried]

Your dedication to and passion for alternative music has yet to be matched on the platform, in my opinion. Keep on trucking, Mads; and thanks for the venom!

[@graymads]

Bless you, and dont worry, I have a lot more to talk about!

[@musicandmania]

As a 30 year old millennial that is far beyond my years and will to live, im offended at how accurately called out i was in the first two minutes. Amazing, immaculate.

[@MikaDamaged]

I love the Bullets era with my heart, but Three Cheers is so legendary, well written, so much energy and passion in just one record. Love it.

[@Dazreil]

there is a straight line that goes through Nightmare before Christmas to MCR to Hazbin Hotel.

[@dahsarrashad6700]

Now that I think about it, you might be onto something 🧐. I watch Nightmare before Christmas when I was little, I started listening to MCR when I was 10 and now I'm a Hazbin fan .......huh? 🤔

[@Dazreil]

@@dahsarrashad6700 well Burton, Way and VivziePop are all visual artist and all 3 projects are musical in a way.

I feel honoured my sister was one of the animators on Hazbin hotel. Proud moment in the family. Was crazy to be in USA to see the giant billboard of Hazbin hotel above Adam Sandlers star on the Hollywood boulevard. Proud Australian here who felt blessed to set foot in America February/March this year.

[@TurdOfParadise]

Truer words have never been said. I'm im my 30s and that is unfortunate but accurate.

[@BloodStainedSkramz]

It’s interesting that you mention the post-hardcore scene because in modern times, this album and MCR as a whole are looked as a pop punk band but I don’t think a lot of people realize that bands like MCR, FOB, and Paramore were often mistaken as post-hardcore bands and also did a lot tour with others bands that sounded more in line with From First To Last and The Used. But anyway, great video. Also it’s cool that the band are still close friends with The Used and Thursday to this day.

[@Sam_MvP1]

27:26 that PERFECTLY sums up emo nite “You sing the words but DONT KNOW WHAT IT MEANS….” Is the lyric that comes to mind as well 🤣😭

[@AlexanderFromTheStarDimension]

Just finished watching most of the stuff on this channel. From music tastes to internet lore and video essay formats, this guy is like the version of myself who ended up making a YT channel. Anyway, I was saving the best for last, since MCR is a fav of mine. What a way to encapsulate their story and essence.

[@JimNoBoDie]

Ghost of You changed my whole mind on this band. Such a great record. Three cheers for Three Cheers!

[@cobine]

three cheers is their best work IMO. no other punk album has that much energy capsulated inside it.

[@lug358]

I did not discover MCR when they started. I was like 7 when this album got out. I discovered in my teen years at 14, when someone i followed posted a link to "the ghost of you" song and video. I was fascinated with everything, and i started looking into more of them and their music. I became a huge MCR fan and was devastated when they broke up just some months after i could discover them back in 2013. This has a very special place in my heart ❤

[@Goatythemeow]

I've been into mcr for a few years now and have recently gotten into resident evil so it's cool that that was an "influence" on them

[@delia_watercolors]

It was the best era! I went to 10 of their Revenge era concerts. They were the best. The venue size was still small enough (for most shows) that it felt personable.

[@darknesdkzr000]

I fully endorse the Black Veil Brides disrespect.

[@andieinthecity]

This was the album that started it all for me when I first heard it at 9 years old. MCR was my gateway to the genre and my taste expanded from there. I will forever be grateful for that fateful day where I heard Helena on MTV for the first time.

[@NikoBenet]

great video! i do wish you went more into Life on the Murder Scene bc that was a bible for fans during the revenge era. More specifically the songs Bury Me In Black and Desert Song. For the Black Parade episode please bring up some of the un-used songs because Gerard did state that Kill All Your Friends probably should have made the cut for BP

[@realmusicmedia95]

This is like… insanely good! I’m so glad this popped up on my recommended. The best ‘Deep Dive’ type video I’ve seen. I went to see MCR about a year ago and has been off my radar for the last few months. Now since watching this video. I already know I’ll be listening to this album on repeat for weeks! 🙌 SUBSCRIBED 🙏

[@hikkipedia]

The fact that Ghost of You is one this record always throws me. It feels SO Black Parade coded. Anyway, got to be one of my favourite music videos of all time.

[@hexogramd8430]

you didn't mention it but your tone towards "saving kids" in the first video did a full 180 in this video. you seem to have more of a respect for their open talks on depression now. Am I correct to assume that your research into this album changed your opinion and strengthened your respect? My own personal Anecdotal evidence is that as a depressed teen my chemical romance back then their open and candor discussions of feeling depressed gave me the strength to continue. I know in your last video you got a lot of push back from people telling you similar, and the tone seems more measured. would you say you regret calling them grifters previously?

Finch was a similar band in the early 2000s that mostly is forgotten about now.

[@lilithhenry]

I'm a fan of MCR since their debut album and never was I an emo. I wasn't part of this movement at all, and truth be said I found emo kids pretty much ridiculous. I loved and still love MCR, but not other bands branding in the emo like Panic at the Disco, Paramore, Fall Out Boys or Mindless Self Indulgence at all. Nor did I like Punk rock bands such as Blink 182, Sum 41 or Avril Lavigne. I was pretty closed minded and leaning much more on the pop rock ( Muse, Placebo, Radiohead but hated and still do Coldplay and U2) or industrial rock ( Rammstein, Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly) at that time. But I have to admit that I'm glad that MCR have reunited since 2019. I love The Foundation of decay to madness because it reminds those bands and those music that I used to listen when I was a teenager and a young adult.

[@tinted_7475]

Graymads, I just want to say your videos are phenomenal and one day this is going to take off for you, keep doing your thing, this stuff is awesome.

[@torchvideos93]

Funny enough that almost exact situation happened for me except it was a friend playing American idiot at the day camp I was in on the cd player in the room and I immediately when from a radio Disney kid to a emo. Also funny enough a girl in that room would play three cheers at one point and I’d would be interested but then shot that down cause my friend said they are lame so I of course being the self conscious 12 year old I was didn’t give MCR another shot til TBP.

My Chemical Romance: Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge was the soundtrack to my early 20's. It's my favorite of all the "emo" bands that came out in the early to mid 00's. Even though these guys aren't emo. When I think emo I think Death Cab for Cutie or Dash Board Confessional. MCR has always been what I call new punk other new punk bands would be The Used or Fall Out Boy. New punk is like punk that appeals to a mainstream audience but not like pop punk. I was living in Bullhead City, AZ at the time and the local rock station was from Vegas, and they were playing "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" and "Helena" in heavy rotation. I fell in love with this band and immediately went out and bought the CD. Shortly after buying it I went on spring break to visit my family in Panama City. For 4 and a half days straight on a bus I jammed out to this album. I couldn't get enough. Then a week or so later I did the same on the way back. Now I had other CDs to listen to but all I wanted to listen to was this MCR album. It wasn't to long after going back to AZ that I decided to move back to be with my family in PCB. Though on the return trip I did listen to other albums from different bands, but I did listen to Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge a few times on that final return trip. So this album means a lot to me because it was what I was listening to during a big event in my life.
