I'm listening to 'My Chemical Romance' for the first time... I'm not impressed

[devilgrrl]

They sound like typical 1990's 'Mallternative' crap - nothing new here.

But Oh! Don't they look cool???



:thumbsdown:

Bollocks!

1. poxy rubbish indeed

[Chan790]

2. They're not good. N/m

[Guava Jelly]

3. I saw them open for Greenday

I wasn't impressed

[SteppingRazor]

4. Certainly nothing challenging, but...

for a tweenie alt-punk band, they've got good sensibilities. The video to "I'm Not Okay" was a classic, and a lot of their songs have hooks a mile long, which is definitely preferable to the hideous screamo that emo was devolving into before bands like My Chemical Romance came along.

5. Thats because

You're not 14 years old.My oldest son is a big fan of them.I tend to agree with your assessment though.MG

8. When I was that age I was into 'KISS'

They're better that MCR - as is 'The Bay City Rollers' and 'KC & The Sunshine Band'

Kids these days.....

[HughBeaumont]

6. They compare this group to Queen.

Uh . . . . no.

MCR are shite on a sticke.

[devilgrrl]

7. Queen???

Oh my... :puke:


Not even close.

9. OMG, I saw them in concert a few years ago

They were the opening act for Green Day...

They're even worse in person, if that's at all possible.

I love loud music as much as the next person, but I literally had to leave the arena. It was nothing but screeching guitar and shouting. Absolutely horrible.
