My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade (2006)
Gerard Way, Ray Toro, Frank Lero, Mikey Way, Bob Bryar
Produced by Rob Cavallo
Our summer of nostalgia finally ends with a seminole album in the hearts of many that grew up in the 2000's era. We're here to talk about an album that capitalized on the resurgence of the "rock-opera", and exponentially expanded the theatrical elements of what Green Day did with American Idiot years prior. This is the longest period we've gone without recording, so the first 5-7 minutes is us catching up on Austin's recent trip to The Gorge in Washington to see Dave Mathews Band, as well as him moving out to his first apartment - meanwhile, Alex's only ongoing thing is his recent foray into exercise and completion of the Twin Peaks series. We're getting quite sloshed on this one while drinking 'Toki' Japanese Blended whisky.
Thank you for listening.
