A band that has been around for a while but has just recently become popular because of the singles 'I'm Not Okay (I Promise)' and 'Helena'.

Their other singles include 'Vampires Will Never Hurt You', 'Honey This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Two Of Us,' and 'The Ghost of You' which was leaked on the internet before the release date. A fourth single from their latest album, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, is planned in the Band's future. As of now, the next single could possibly be 'You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison' or 'Cemetary Drive'.

They currently have 5 members: Mikey Way, Gerard Way, Bob Bryar, Frank Iero, and Ray Toro.

My Chemical Romance has 2 albums out currently (I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love and Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge). A third album is due to be recorded sometime in the winter.

They are currently finishing up headlining the Warped Tour and will begin their first headlining tour of the USA and a couple of UK dates in the fall.

Judging from most interviews the band has participated in, their music is difficult to classify, but can be classified as "Violent Pop-Rock".

If you don't like My Chemical Romance, then just don't listen to them (and if you don't like them, what are you doing looking this up?)

A band. Good or bad...that's for you to decide for yourself.

My Chemical Romance are a band from NJ. I;m not going to attempt to give them a specific genre, because they have many influences. Guitar wise they use a mixture of punk and metal riffs, mainly due to the bands love of bands like the Misfits, and metal bands such as iron Maiden. Lyrically, Gerard Way writes in a style similar to that of Morrisey, using metaphors and story-telling to get across his point.

In reading the other definitions here, I was quite angered by the many comments about the band slitting their wrists, or encouraging their fans to do so, because one of the most important messages the band gives out is that self-harm is not acceptable. "No-one should ever feel the need to hurt themselves, because the rest of the world hurts you badly enough." They hate the idea of self-harm, and will always encourage their fans to get some help. Regardless of whether or not you personally like the music, people should never insult a band that to someone else could mean so much, and could have helped someone else so much. I don't like Slayer, to me slayer just sounds like noise, but I won't insult them because to someone they could have been a great help, could inspire them, or could just mean a lot to someone.
Band members are Gerard Way, Frank Iero, Mikey Way, Ray Toro, and Bob Bryar. Yes, they are all quite good looking, but that isn't what the music is about, and they get quite uncomfortable about the attention to their looks.
They're very nice guys, I hung out without them quite a bit a few weeks ago, and none of them once mentioned a wish to slit their wrists, mainly they just took the mickey out of each other, and tried to set me on fire by dropping their cigarettes on my shoes.
Whilst all of them hate homophobia, and make a point of standing up for anti-prejudiced feelings, none of them are actually gay, just open-minded people, who stand up for others who can't stand up for themselves.
They aren't emo, please research genres and learn correct definitions before you label bands as emo.

my chemical romance is made up of a sassy man (Gerard), a 5 foot tall man (Frank), a unicorn believer (Mikey), and princess fro fro (Ray). now if that isn't the most awesome description of the idea(band) I don't know what is. This band is guaranteed to save your life. so long and goodnight🌜

A band from New Jersey. Simple as that. Some people like them, some people don't, but personally i think that all the people who come on here saying they are "shitty losers" and saying they "fucking suck" and making other unjustified comments need to get a life and find something better to do than criticise a group of people they don't even know. To the people who say that MCR should die, do you think YOU actually contribute anything to society by slagging off peoples taste in music? This band have helped people, have you? Save your sad, unjustified opinions for when you become someone significant and the world actually gives a fuck about what you have to say. (bit of a rant there, sorry)
They are a band based in New Jersey (who have never claimed to be emo, goth or punk, so stop saying they have), very good live.
Gerard Way-vocals
Mikey Way-bass
Ray Toro-lead guitar
Frank Iero-rhythm guitar
Bob Bryar-drums
They have released 3 albums: I Brought you my Bullets, you brought me your Love, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, and the Black Parade, and they also released a live album and DVD set entitled Life on the Murder Scene.

My Chemical Romance are an amazing band that have unique, poetic lyrics and band members that are just like normal people.
MCR don't even think of themselves as famous.
they live in NORMAL HOUSES.
They are not emo, they are beautiful, violent pop.
They have never reffered to themselves as emo unless being sarcastic.
Their lyrics are more sophisticated and deep than any crap "gangsta" singer's.

My Chemical Romance!Hmm?What is there to say except they fucking rock!!!!!I totally love'em!!!And to whoever said that we should listen to the ramones instead,well as a matter of fact I went to their concert wearing a ramones shirt.Well they totally rock,because besides being kick ass rock stars,I saw walking Gerard and Bob walking around before one of their concerts just chillin without bodyguards or any of that crap, and they werent stuck up to smile at me.(Even though I was to shy to go up to them,and i respected the fact that they wanted to keep their presence low key).Well any band that fuckin rocks,and loves their fans as much as they do is a god damn good band!!!I wish them all the luck with their careers and cant wait to go to their next concert!!!-Lizette

An amazing band which are hard to describe. Many people class them as emo, but some class the, as punk. 'I'm Not Okay', 'Thank You For The Venom' and 'Helena' are all amazing songs which you should hear. If you dont like them I personally think you should get your faces out of your shitty backsides and start listening to them a bit more :)

My Chemical Romance is a band just like Green Dayand Backstreet Boys. All though there is a huge gap in between Green Day and BSB music wise, they are both bands.

MCR do not label themselves "emo" and I simply do not see how they are either. Their songs "I'm Not Okay" and "Helena" are the only songs practically mentioned in the previous definitions, they have other songs too like "Our Lady Of Sorrows" and "Give 'Em Hell Kid".

Gerard Way, lead singer, is not in any way "emo" and has good fashion sense. He does not promote self harm or suicide. Gerard is just a normal guy in the world that doesn't deserve being insulted by those who listen to 50 Cent and Aaron Carter.

And none of the members is "mine" and they definitly do not want your babies. So STFU.
