[QUOTE=Aetna;40008404] I don't get all the hate, personally. [/QUOTE]
crap commercialised "alt" rock
[QUOTE=Aetna;40008404]Every band has some stupid persona in one way or another.[/QUOTE]
nope
[QUOTE=EddieLTU;40008401]many emo's will suicide now :|
im happy they broke up[/QUOTE]
I don't understand this attitude
If I don't like a band, I just don't listen to them. I don't listen to Bieber, but I have no problem with him making music and making money off of it. People say he's 'ruining music'; these people said the same about the Backstreet Boys and oh look metal and rock and everything else still exists.
It's okay to not like a band; it's not okay to shit on them purely because you don't enjoy listening to them
[QUOTE=Ghostwork;40008357]ugh linkin park is 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.[/QUOTE]
Well my phase of enjoying shitty emo music didn't last very long.
My tastes are super refined now, I swear.
But still, I hope that they were good for their genre and those who enjoy them. Because it's sad to be considered shitty by your old fans before you finally break.
My girlfriend isn't going to like this....
I don't like this :(
Will I still be crucified for admitting that I like their Black Parade album?
Never got around to listening to any of their other stuff; but the Parade was a nice shot at a concept album in a time sorely lacking in that department, and every song had a little something to it that I enjoyed.

still fucking love this song tho[/QUOTE]
This is the only song of theirs I ever really listened to, but I'll admit I liked it, especially the video.
They have some kinda neat videos

Helena was the only song I liked by them
i've always thought of my chemical romance as a band of talented musicians plagued by the fact that they tried very hard to be what people thought was "emo". like they would have be good if their lyrics weren't so shitty, but they fucked themselves over from the start. on the subject of emo, i have a lot of respect for early emo bands, especially those who came out of seattle. i suggest anyone who hates emo to check bands like sunny day real estate and texas is the reason out. this song showed me that emo mutated into a monster during the 2000's.

I remember listening to their songs back when I didn't know English and didn't care about lyrics, after that I stopped liking them
[video=youtube;KSNKCfxcYvE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSNKCfxcYvE[/video]
still an ok song even though all songs from this band/linkin park/fall out boy/<insert alt rock emo band name here> are the fucking same
Man, all the videos people are posting remind me of high school. Shit's ridiculous, haven't heard it in ages.
~Whats the worst that I could say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight~

Linkin Park'a album Meteora is pretty good in my eyes.
I'm surprised any of you are managing to talking about MCR or LP without jumping on the usual hate-bandwagon. Huh.
i fucking love linkin park
still

cant someone just hate bad commercialised alt rock without it being a band wagon?
fuck
[QUOTE=Mister B;40007903]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]
Gerard has already confirmed that the breakup wasn't his doing. I assume some of the band members don't like 'the transition' that the killjoys album started aka moving away from Emo. Wouldn't be surprised if Gerard forms a new band though, he really likes the name 'Killjoys'.
For some weird reason I read the title as My Bloody Valentine.
Jesus Christ that was a horrifying two seconds.

go ahead but you have to not come off like that guy
when you call a band bad you make it appear as a fact and that no listener has the potential to like it.

Exactly
There's a difference between 'I don't really like to listen to Nickelback' with accompanying logical and reasonable arguments attached and 'fuckin nickelback is the shittest band ever sellout faggots'

i think the fact that this thread exists proves that not only were they bad, but that theres also a merciful god who agrees with me

That doesn't make them objectively bad though, nor does it mean one can profess 'how shit they were' as though it's undeniable fact without looking like a twat

this thread only proves that there was a band and they broke up.

I know <3
band of the year 2004
Eh...they had a few decent songs but most were really whiny...
Now if only we could get Green Day to follow suit...
Mandatory "this was my favorite song"

Fuck, I love Black Parade (Fav MCR album), RIP. New stuff was hit and miss though.
[QUOTE=God of Ashes;40007794]i saw them live once. it was awful[/QUOTE]
Seen them twice, for some reason they were supporting Muse twice.
