-# Review of My Chemical Romance discography
-
-Review of MCR discography, in the same order I listened to each album from
-start to finish for the first time. Expect diminishing neutrality.
-
-## The Black Parade
-
-First listen: late 2020 or early 2021, I don't remember
-
-General remarks: Formed my first impression of MCR: monochrome pop punk
-talking about death. Or living in pain. Never got the point of the Patient
-as deeply as the real fans do.
-
-Fav track: Sleep
-
-Close runners-up: This Is How I Disappear, Mama (these are two tracks if
-you're unaware)
-
-Track stuck in head for longest: Disenchanted
-
-## Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge
-
-First listen: June 2022
-
-General remarks: Another concept album but this time I got the idea. In
-fact just go to the Amazon HQ and start killing. There's never a shortage
-of evil men. Sounds homogeneous genre-wise (not necessarily a bad thing).
-
-What I like: Dynamics — angelic hums in Interlude, then immediately the
-heavy guitars in Thank You For The Venom. The time change in INTYWIDFAL.
-Also, only two songs are named after a chorus line.
-
-Fav track: I Never Told You What I Do For A Living
-
-Fav line: And we all dance along to the tune of your death (I, for one, am
-certaining anticipating the tune of the death of certain people whose
-names my lawyer advised me not to elaborate)
-
-Close runner-up: The Ghost Of You
-
-Track stuck in head for longest: Cemetery Drive
-
-## Danger Days
-
-First listen: August 2022
-
-General remarks: _Another_ concept album? This time the lore goes as far
-as comic books, which I never read. To summarize, band fights evil
-corporation with laser weapons.
-
-What I like: Lots of mixed genres this time, and I'm glad they took
-a break from dark sounds.
-
-What I don't: This time 9 songs are named the easy way.
-
-Fav track to sing: Summertime (only song playable on ukulele)
-
-Fav line: Terrfied of what I'd be / as a kid from what I've seen / every
-single day when people try / and put the pieces back together / just to
-smash them down
-
-Fav track to listen to: Bulletproof Heart (extremely relatable)
-
-Track stuck in head for longest: The Kids From Yesterday
-
-## I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love
-
-First listen: September 2022
-
-General remarks: As with most debut albums, it didn't grow on me until
-a couple listens. I'm in a phase where I'd pick select tracks to listen to
-at will.
-
-January 2023 update: now I put on the entire record daily.
-
-What I like: Tempo changes! I wish they had more of them in later albums.
-Also the way Drowning Lessons has an outro, and Demolition Lovers is
-broken in half.
-
-What I don't: One, it's underproduced; two, Gerard's lines often consist
-of a bunch of half notes or quarter notes in succession (example: all but
-the last word in this line: We walk in single file / we light our rails
-/ and punch our time / ride escalators colder than a cell), and eight
-words in, this begins to sound monotonic.
-
-Fav track: Demolition Lovers (this started all the Three Cheers lore
-didn't it)
-
-Close runner-up: Early Sunsets Over Monroeville
-
-Remarks on ESOM: This song goes HARD. The first verse is all fun and games
-like "late dawns and early sunsets" and "holding hands and life was
-perfect" but by chorus it was shit like "before I pull this trigger" and
-"there's a corpse in my bed". Can't wait to recommend to people I hate.
-
-Track stuck in head for longest: also Demolition Lovers
-
-Misheard lyrics: "dressed in red and blue ice cream" where it should be "I
-squeezed" and "ice cream and roses fall at your feet" where it should be
-"rice grains"
-
-## Conventional Weapons
-
-First listen: October 2022
-
-General remarks: Well, I sure am glad MCR shelved these songs in favor of
-what is now Danger Days.
-
-Conventional Weapons is like No Phun Intended by Tyler Joseph in many
-ways, including how they reused some of its lyrics.
-
-What I like: Gerard's voice is crystal clear in many tracks.
-
-What I don't: Too much repetition, and there are artifacts of monotonic
-quarter notes from Bullets. Also some lyrics sound rhymed for rhymes'
-sake.
-
-Fav track: The World Is Ugly
-
-Misheard lyrics: "I wanna suicide, get my gun" where it should be "As soon
-as I get my gun". Truly horrifying misunderstanding.
-
-## Bonus mention: The Foundations of Decay
-
-First listen: May 2022
-
-General remarks: Just imagine how the real fans reacted. First song in
-8 years?! I hear it's categorized "progressive rock", but because the only
-other progressive rock song I've ever heard is Bohemian Rhapsody, the only
-conclusion I can draw is that all progressive rock songs are exactly
-6 minutes long.
-
-What I like: This song leaves a _lot_ to be anticipated. It's like
-a fragment of a map. Let's wait till MCR releases their fifth album.
-
-What I don't: "And so he gets to die a saint but she will always be the
-whore" ← like, _which_ she? This sounds sus out of context (I say this
-because I don't get the context).
