American Music And Grammy Award-nominated Quintet Creates My Chemical Romance After Witnessing Second NYC World Trade Center Disaster

 

My Chemical Romance is one of the newer popular American bands out there on the market these days. The band was formed shortly after the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001. The lead singer, Gerard Way was so touched by his firsthand witnessing of the planes crashing into the World Trade Center towers, that he wrote a song about it called Skylines and Turnstiles.

It wasn't long after he wrote that song that My Chemical Romance became a reality. Slowly the band picked up members, from Matt Pelissier to Ray Toro and Mikey Way My Chemical Romance slowly became a reality.

Then drummer Matt Pelissier hosted recording sessions right in his home. In the attic of Matt Pelissier, creations like Our Lady of Sorrows and even Cubicles were borne from idea into reality. They garnered thousands of fans by networking through MySpace, eventually landing their dream of signing a real record deal in 2002 Eyeball Records signed My Chemical Romance in 2002.  At that point, the band had caught up with their new guitarist Frank Lero; he was originally of the band Pency Prep but the band had become dismantled, giving Lero the freedom to bring a little something extra to My Chemical Romance.

The band went on to sign with Reprise Records the following year in 2003 and even released their second album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Although they only released three singles from it, My Chemical Romance's sophomore album went platinum within that year. Matt Pelisier was no longer the drummer for the band due to some argument with one of the other band members and Bob Bryar had stepped in to take over. They have opened for Green Day, bee on the Vans Warped Tour and even had tours of their very own.

A sign of true success in the music industry, My Chemical Romance released their very own DVD or CD box set, called Life on the Murder Scene. There is a DVD with all the ins and outs of the band and another DVD with music videos and band footage, as well as a CD included in that set.

The third CD for My Chemical Romance is currently in the workings and there is word that it is nearing completion. They are often classified as rock, emo, or alternative music but My Chemical Romance was created with a purpose, and they have stuck to their original vision rather closely. They received their first exposure through Myspace yes, but My Chemical Romance has made it through the internet into a popular and successful presence in the music industry.
