Basically this thread is dedicated to My Chemical Romance's new album and Gerard's new hair.

I've heard so many people complain about it - the hair.

I absolutely love it. I'm not normally a fan of blondes, much less bleach-blondes.

But he looks awesome with his hair like that.

He looks very Aryan - in the Nazi sense - and for some reason I find that extremely attractive.

Anyway, here is a visual:

Or you could see him in action on the video on their MySpace:

By the way, apparently a number of the disgruntled fans - with regards to Mr. Way's hair - have failed to take note of the fact that Gerard did this to himself in order that he might be able to better portray the main character of the new album. Most fans know that each MCR album is a story told through each track. The Black Parade focuses on a character called "The Patient". Gerard wanted to be able to somewhat resemble a man who had gone through chemotherapy.

[[just a tidbit of information for the potentially less-informed]]

Aside from his hair, their new album The Black Parade comes out this coming Tuesday.

Many fans have probably heard their first single from the album, "Welcome to the Black Parade" - if you haven't, that's the video on the link I just posted.

I really enjoy the song and the video. You can really hear their Queen influences in their music. It's so awesome. The video is so well made too. The colour schemes and camera work are spectacular.

There hasn't been an MCR video that I haven't loved.

I've yet to hear anything else from their new album, but I'm pretty optimistic.

Anywho, discuss!

Btw, I have the album now.

Thank you, BitComet.

But here I thought this guild had a number of MCR fans.

As a former anti-emo, I took no time whatsoever to listen to MCR. But, surely enough, their last cd was plopped into my lap, and with the sentence of a good two months stuck to my room, I listened to their cd. I loved it. And from what I've seen and heard of the new album, both "Welcome To The Black Parade" and "Cancer", I'm loving the new cd. 3nodding I'd make sure that others would put it on their recommendation list.

At first, I was just waaaaaay too ******** shocked to like it.

But it's growing on me, I must admit. I still like his old hair style the best.

And the new song's awesome too.

Gerard's new hairdo freaks me out a little. I first saw it and thought "OMGWTF EMO BARBIE! gonk ".... but that little tidbit on the chemo thing... hm. New light to it.

I can't say I'm much of an MCR fan because last year I could NOT get "Helena" to come out of my head for a number of months and thus began to loathe them for putting that song in my head in the first place. Now, over a year later, I can tolerate MCR, but not in mass amounts.

Anywho, thanks very much for the insight, Morty! Now I can ponder them as less of an enigma. 3nodding

I loved his hair to begin with.
It's just right to not look odd like so much bleach blondness does.
And I liked how it ties into the story.

My favorite shot of the video is when you first see the parade travling through the burning buildings.

I haven't gotten the CD yet.
(Oh, how it pains me)
But I should be able to get it this weekend.
If not, I'll have to do crazy acts on the street for money and transportation so that I can buy it.
