The message to fans, simply titled "My Chemical Romance," reads:[/quote] [quote]We've shared the stage with people we admire, people we look up to, and best of all, our friends. And now, like all great things, it has come time for it to end. Thanks for all of your support, and for being part of the adventure.[/quote] I dunno how to feel about this. I won't miss them, that's for sure.

hey guys remember when mcr was cool?? yeah me either

We'll carry on

i saw them live once. it was awful

Eh. I liked a few of their songs as a teenager, but I can't say I was ever a fan. Now my music tastes are different, anyway.

Ha, man, I haven't heard a word about them in at least five or six years. They had their MTV heyday when I was a teenager, and that was it.

I never understood why basic bands like them need so many people. They had six fucking members for a basic alternate rock band.

Tumblr is going to shit itself with "feels"

I feed on the tears of emos

[QUOTE=God of Ashes;40007849][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCUpvTMis-Y[/media] still fucking love this song tho[/QUOTE] Too emo for my taste

NO NO NO there is no way this is happening and that's not just my refusal of reality (in the case that this is real) talking. Gerard (the singer) confirmed that they were doing shit and meeting with people for a fifth album, they just recently did a revamp of their website, AND nothing besides their main website has said anything. I'm willing to bet the website's been hacked.

[QUOTE=God of Ashes;40007849]still fucking love this song tho[/QUOTE] The only song I like as well, and its still not that much.

I really enjoyed their stuff and I'll miss them for sure

Was never really a fan of them, although my Facebook feed is being flooded with this

[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;40007829]I never understood why basic bands like them need so many people. They had six fucking members for a basic alternate rock band.[/QUOTE] Singer, bass, rhythm and lead guitar, and drums. Keyboard in some songs. That doesn't sound like too much

[QUOTE=Paul McCartney;40007829]I never understood why basic bands like them need so many people.

Wait why is it such a big deal how many people were in the band

[QUOTE=Maloof?;40008079]Wait why is it such a big deal how many people were in the band[/QUOTE] It's not, he was just commenting on it. Sort of like what you're doing in your post.

[QUOTE=supersnail11;40008085]It's not, he was just commenting on it. Sort of like what you're doing in your post.[/QUOTE] the whole [QUOTE] six fucking members [/QUOTE] bit made him sound pretty angry regarding the fact

I know like three girls who are bawling their eyes out right now.

[QUOTE=Chonch;40008121]I know like three girls who are bawling their eyes out right now.[/QUOTE] if they enjoyed the music and it meant something to them then that's ok I would be doing the same if I'd been around in 1980 when Led Zep broke up

Wow, I haven't heard or seen anything about them since middle school so I've always assumed that they broke up a long time ago.

Huh, I was just going back and listening to some of their songs earlier today. Their first two albums were alright, and The Black Parade had some decent songs too. Never really listened to their newest release, except for watching the "Na Na Na" music video. I mean, who can resist Grant Morrison as a villain?

i find many mcr songs quite listenable. they've definitely got a bandwagon hatred going on. (had) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6SuAm7mxpA[/media]

I thought my chemical romance was gay back when I liked linkin park. So uh

[QUOTE=Ittla;40008342]I thought my chemical romance was gay back when I liked linkin park. So uh[/QUOTE] ugh i find linkin park to be extremely whiny, can hardly stand the lyrics but their sound makes up for it. all the members sound great but goddd the dripping angst. mcr compared to them i find more bouncy and full of action, linkin park sound like they're sitting on a couch doing heroin through a haze of tears.

I love their Three Cheers album, it's pretty fun to listen to every once in a while. Though, I never cared for them when they tried to be all serious after that. Still kinda sad to see them go.

many emo's will suicide now :| im happy they broke up

I hated MCR until I actually listened to them maybe 5 years ago, they're a pretty decent band. I don't get all the hate, personally. Every band has some stupid persona in one way or another.
