The Black Parade is routinely cited as one of the greatest rock albums of the 21st century for its combination of Queen-sized art rock ambition and emo/pop punk directness alongside frontman Gerard Way’s vivid comics-inspired imaginative story.
My Chemical Romance recently finished their most recent “Black Parade” tour with five dates at the Hollywood Bowl, and are currently preparing to head to East Asia for the next leg of the tour.
Gerard Way recently announced onstage that the band plans on taking 2027 off from the road to work on a new album.
