My Chemical Romance - 'Famous Last Words'

Post categories:

Fraser McAlpine | 10:55 UK time, Friday, 19 January 2007

Right then. Firstly, has everyone bought 'Welcome To The Black Parade' now? If not…WHY NOT? These guys have proved they can kick butt in the ‘comeback single’ department, they've still got those natty suits on in the video, and you just can't have too many gothic (original definition) rock operas about dying, with a guest appearance from Liza Minelli, can you?

My Chemical RomanceThis isn't one of the madder songs on that very mad album though. You get the impression that the band want to consolodate on some of their amazing success with a song which won't scare non-fans away, while also providing the people in the pit at their shows something to sing while waving a clenched fist in the air, in an all-together-at-once fashion.

And, with that in mind, here comes their nice big rock anthem, only, being the Chems (the Mys? the Romance?), their nice big rock anthem comes complete with stonking riffola, stoppy-bits, starty-bits, twiddly-bits, shouty-bits, and, of course, the enormous chorus. You have to have that, see, otherwise people will think you've 'gone pop' and there'll be all sorts of credibility issues.

Anyway, seriously, go and buy the bloody record, willya?
