Opinons, opinions, they get ya no where, but I personally prefer to express mine.
So here, I'm reviewing an album I recently bought, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge.
I've been trying to get this cd for ages, I love the band, but no stores had it. I eventually got it online.
The album starts out with a song I no longer much care for, Helena, as it has been over played to the nth degree.
Then it takes a sharp turn from the melodic, but violent Helena to the chatic Give 'Em Hell, Kid.
Apparently the album is a concept album.

"Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge continues the story from I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love where two lovers both died when their hometown was overrun with vampires.
It's told that the male went to hell, and made a deal with the devil so he could have the souls of himself and his lover back in exchange for the souls of evil men.

The album starts off with the funeral of his lover (Helena), as he goes on to collect the souls of a gay criminal (You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison), a highschool student that went on a shooting rampage (I'm Not Okay (I Promise)), and a man that kills a group of people that attends a wedding party (To The End).

During the soul collecting, the male has his doubts (The Ghost Of You), but in the end he gets his lover back and tells the story of how he did it (I Never Told You What I Do For A Living)." -Wikipedia

It isn't very strong (as in, the story isn't an overtone), however, and I actually didn't know it was a concept album until I found out online recently, so if you're not fond of concept albums, you won't mind.

My Chemical Romance has been pigeon holed as "just another emo band" when in reality, they have 10 times as much talent as the average emo band (see: Fall Out Boy) Lead guitarist Ray Toro and Rythm guitarist Frank Iero have a keen sense of melody that they show through out the songs. All the album art is by front man and lead singer Gerard Way, with an immense amount of red and black (which he says are "funeral colours"). Several of the songs, suhc as I Never Told You What I Do For A Living, take many twists and turns that one wouldn't expect/ Overall, I recommend the album, though the band is already well known by nearly everybody. My Chemical Romance have caught a case of the dreaded over-play syndrom, but I'm sure they can overcome it and settle bac to being a normal band, and not just a trend band.
