The Black Parade - Blog Posts
Some facts you may or may not know about MCR: (yup, this is gonna be a series so... here's the first fact!)
I. "The black parade is dead!" and "¡Venganza!" were shot on the same day, 7th October 2007!
Just some revenge Gerard and tbp Ray in my style and in the fp style :3 ganna turn these digital
(They were also requests by people on insta if you wanna follow me there too >< )
FUCK YEAH got my tickets for NJ AND MA
saint jeanne of arc
Saw this on insta and decided to share here and to Twitter :)
yk what fuck it 99 days unti i see mcr live!!! losing my mind slowly but surely.
i think the drum beat frank played might have been the outro to "welcome to the black parade"?? but that's just how I heard it. the little marching snare with a bass hit in the last few moments of the song. that might just be the band kid in me telling me that (being a drum major bleeds into my everyday life, unfortunately)
also yes there's totally something else except the tour that they're trying to go for!! i get having a story for the tour itself, but (especially with all the crazy font stuff- like 10 fonts, i think?) this is a lot a lot a lot for only nine shows. unless they're screwing around with us and just really like this dog. xD
I don’t get what Mcrs doin, like why are they advertising this tour so much?? It’s not like it’s the first reunion tour and I swear even that one didn’t have as much run up to it (though maybe we’re all starved of Mcr content and overthinking everything)
I swear down there going to be more than just this US tour cos there’s so much effort and details going in to the promotion videos that it would just all be a waste for like 9 tour dates? (Didn’t quote me on this) wether this “more” will be a whole album or a song or even a worldwide tour I honestly couldn’t care less I just miss em
ALSO?? the fact they’re back in the studio and have been for a while?? How much practice do they need before the shows?? And “disenchanted tune” ??? Why not just call it disenchanted- AND the clip or Frank playing the drums?? He’s never played drums for Mcr and I don’t recognise the thing he played so either it’s just a practice beat or something new I don’t know
One theory I saw that I really like is that they’ll play one new song on each tour date and release the whole album at the end of the tours which would be rad as hell although I’m not too sure what direction the music would be going in. Gerard wanted to follow danger days kind of style (pretty obvious from their solo stuff) but Frank kinda stuck with the black parade so I really wonder what they’re gonna come up with for mcr5 (it will happen)
Another cool idea is that they’ll release it on 5/5/25 at 5:55 but i feel like that’s too on the nose for them cos foundations of decay was released on some random Tuesday
Anyhow I require mcr5 and also it’s be rad if they came to the uk I’ve never been able to see them live (please please please please please please please please)
I drew this back in October for a dtiys on instagram by @pisswitchart and I kept forgetting to post it on here 😅
But yeah I’m pretty proud of this even though the background is super messy
This was for a dtiys by @/heavenlysiren on Instagram, based on the amazing MCR song Heaven Help Us 🖤
Con haul!!
(Image is upside down idk why)
Gahh!! This is my second con ever and Ive got to say it was so much fun. I got to go with my cousin which made it better, and I experimented with my style by dressing goth, tbh I looked very good. I didnt have as much money as last time but I loved everything I bout nonetheless!!
Maybe I'm grasping at lose strings here but...

Listen, I don't know what DRAAG stands for. Maybe this has no correlation but i've seen a lot of theories of people saying that the black parade is being forced to perform as some kind of punishment or show of power by the dictator?? So maybe the lyrics are a double meaning.
"Here's my resignation" could possibly show just how much the black parade does not want to be doing this, how they've given up after being sent to the MOAT, theyre resigned, they've let go of hope, the entire basis of which their purpose and message was built on—they are truly surrendered. And "I'll serve it in drag" could mean that they are serving, in this "celebration", under the boot of whatever DRAAG is, inside of whatever confine the MOAT (physical or otherwise) they have been sent to is.
Also (I'm being totally delusional) but Gerard pronounces the "drag" in "I'll serve it in drag" in The End as "I'll serve it in dra-ag", making it sound like a double a—Just like how in the post DRAAG is spelled with a double a.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BLACK PARADE 😇 OFFICIALLY AN ADULT
I will probably sell my kidney for this
lets all go to hell (with mama)

Brisbane 2007 / Brisbane 2023
GUYS. this is a cry for help. give me your favorite pictures you want me to draw. my chemical romance, the used, fall out boy, the academy is, I DONT CARE. send them in. please please please please please I can find any good references. pelasepleaseplapsleakspelapelaksepaease
welcome back online school, where my friend and i spend our day comparing the lyrics to house of wolves to the plot of lord of the flies
when we invent time travel i’m going right back to 2001 to mysteriously end up at every mcr show, then just keep replaying the loop once i get to 2020
me on a first date: so... would you say you’re more of a crash queen or a motor baby?
as it turns out, i am actually my chemical romance’s second biggest simp bc kerrang! will forever be in first place
what my chem song would you want to be the last one you hear? personally i think any and all could work on your deathbed. some would be comedic, others touching... if you are an aries, perhaps destroya?
becoming a my chem fan in 2013 was an experience i can only compare to seeing the light at the end of the tunnel only to find out it’s an incoming train.
so, can you name every song off of american rock band my chemical romance’s four main studio albums or did you just... not get made fun of in middle school?
This is my hot take.
Parade is Millennial Nihilism. Danger Days is Gen Z Nihilism.
This is so real but I can always identify the song easily when I'm listening to smt and it takes more than 10 seconds to actually play something
Headphones: *song ends* Headphones: Headphones: Me: you gonna play anything? Headphones: Me: did you die? Headphones: Me: did I turn off my volume *turns it all the way up* Headphones:... Headphones: *full blast* WELL THEY ENCOURAGE YOUR COMPLETE COOPERATION-
mcr challenge - day 24
probably Mama
it's a really good song!
mcr challenge - day 22 + 23
day 22: probably teenagers since it was my first mcr song but welcome to the black parade has this vibe to it that just brings be back
day 23: I would be glad to even see mcr live tbh so I don't really care but I still think that it could be fun to see ex: I'm Not Okay or Helena live (overall songs from the Revenge era)
