[Transcript: This is a song about suicide. We want you guys to know, no matter what happens to you, no matter what tomorrow brings, there is nothing worth taking your life over.
I don't care if your girlfriend dumps you or if your boyfriend dumps you, I don't care if you lose your shitty job, I don't care if you can't get into some crappy fucking school. Life is too fucking precious. Call up a good friend, call up your mom. If they're not available dial 1-800 SUICIDE.]
Headfirst for Halos [2003 Beaumont Club, Kansas City]
it was watching this for the first time that mcr tipped over from "awesome band i really fucking dig" to an all-time hyperfixation for me. ray's enthusiasm, the way they wordlessly jump into exactly the part ray's thinking about, the way those parts work together and sound so fucking wonderfully insane...like these are two very talented guys but they could only get as good as they are through dedication to their instrument of choice and their band could only sound as good as it does because of their dedication to working with each other and that's what it's all about baby
man mcr recording bullets was really like. hello we are my chemical romance from new jersey :) our drummer can't play and does NOT want to improve. here is our guitarist who is the best thing to happen to music in the last 20 years and his little helper. he has rabies. he is also very very talented but we recruited him like a week before finishing this album so I guess we'll wait and see. our bassist has never picked up a bass in his life. this is our singer. yeah he just looks like that. it's because he never comes out of his basement but he is also plagued by visions from god. he has never taken anything close to vocal lessons but he also possesses the voice of an angel who went to hell but got lost and landed in new jersey (1000x worse). he has every dental problem ever but if you punch him in the face he can forget about it and give you the best performance on this record. geoff rickly please produce our album :(
