About this Album:
Holy snot! I'd have to say that this is MCR's BEST album so far. I don't know what to say..all the songs have alot of meanings to it. I don't think I'll ever get bored of MCR they're like the best band ever to walk this earth!(for me atleast =p) And thanks to them I started playing my guitar again and now finding people for my school band! If anyone from MCR is reading this I want to say thanks because you guys inspired me to move on and do the thing that I love, and that's singing an playing my guitar. Oh! One more thing..I LOVE YOU GUYS!! PLEASE COME TO JAKARTA!! Nobody ever comes here T.T.. MCR rocks my world!

This album saved my life in so many ways. It tells a story and means something to its listeners. It has kind of an old school rock feel to it and I hear something new every time i listen to it. Absolutely FANTASTIC. no words to describe how i feel about it.

This album rox! it is their best yet. with awesome songs like "Welcome to the black parade" and "Teenagers", MCR might have said that they went a little darker in this album, i don't agree coz if you go back and listen to their other albums they're so dark it's creepy, but still tottaly awesum! i love this band and i can't wait to see them in december!

My Chemical Romance's album 'The Black Parade' is a fantastic album with a mixture of sounds not just guitars and drums. They included in their track 'Welcome to the black parade' horns and piano. The track teenagers and house of wolves were more like rock and not their emo style but that proves they are talented, and know how to do other things and make different types of music. The last track famous last words was fantastic and inspiring and contained encouraging words for people out there who are only living because of My Chemical Romance and all emo's out there. The design of the album cover was FANTASTIC it really gave people a clue that the album was emo and punk. The poster included inside was great and really gave the album more attractiveness. I think the price was great as it was low and affordable by all broke emo's out there! The sound quality was really good because if you put it on really loud it feels like you are at their concert! If anyone out there wants to buy an album it SHOULD be My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade! I rate it 5*. By any chance if ANYONE from My Chemical Romance is reading this I LOVE YOU GUYS KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!

The Black parade is the best album that My Chemical Romance have made so far. They may be the oldest young band in America. None of the band is over 30 although Gerard Way(Vocals) is going to turn 30 in April. The opening fanfare, "The End," blows up like an outtake from Alice Cooper's Billion Dollar Babies, with glam-Godzilla guitars and spook-choir hurrahs. "Dead!" is a sleek, bleak bruiser, like Queen's "Keep Yourself Alive" in widow's weeds. And in the hyperoperatic "Mama," Way -- playing a soldier up to his neck in blood, raging against the woman who gave him life -- briefly duets with Liza Minnelli, who belts her two big lines only to have Way sing back at her with vicious obscenity. The words Gerard sings back are But there's shit that I've done with this fuck of a gun. This is not the way you'd expect the song to go but because it does ot makes is a brilliant song. You would cry out your eyes all along.My Chemical Romance are very much a band of their time -- post-9/11. The first song Gerard wrote for the group (with ex-drummer Matt Pelisser) was "Skylines and Turnstiles," based on his experience that day in New York, watching the Twin Towers fall in front of him. There is a lot of fire and rubble in these songs, too. And there are bodies all over the place -- dead in the streets ("Welcome to the Black Parade"); near death in hospital beds ("Dead!" and "Cancer"); or just too numb to give a shit about morality ("House of Wolves") or forgiveness ("I Don't Love You"). "This Is How I Disappear" is an exciting, perverse goodbye, from one lost soul to the object of his suffocating affection. "And without you is how I disappear/And live my life alone/Forever now," Gerard sings from the depths of obsession and, it seems, his grave. The poetry is rickety, but the self-pity is arena-ready. Many listeners wont understand the lyrics but MCR's fans will know exactly what they are on about.Their hyper, scream-drenched choruses and metal-flicked guitar lines call to mind similar New Jersey-ites Thursday, but MCR's therapy session alt rock defines its own space. Singer-songwriter Gerard Way ties up all of his disparate influences (Iron Maiden, the Smiths) into one cohesive, explosive whole.

I love this album. It's totaly amazing. If you listen to it over and over again new elements of the story come through, it's completley mind blowing. Well worth getting. Can't decide which song is my favourite on the album, possibly " famous last words" or " this is how i disappear" But they are all great !!
