Reminds me of some Japanese pop music. Not bad. Just need to hear more.

 

[Dan]

Hm, not sure if I'm into it or not. Then again I always do this, then love it after a couple of listens.

I have to agree with you with the Japanese sense of it though xD

 

[TheMysteriousThug]

I hated Welcome to the Black Parade from my first listen of the song. Listened to the album and fell in love.

 

[Dan]

I felt the same with I Don't Love You, seemed like such a cheesy song, but after listening to the lyrics I realised it was well written.

 

[MenaceInc]

Don't like it.
First listened to I Brought You My Bullets... way back in early 2004 after there was a review of a gig in London. Three Cheers... came out pretty soon after that and it was awesome.

Then "The Black Parade" came out. To be fair there were a few songs on it that I really liked like This is how I disappear and Famous last words but thought that most of it was naff.

Unfortunately from what I heard in that video, this album will be worse...

 

[TheMysteriousThug]

Apparently the album has lots of synth in it.

 

[ChurchedAtheist]

I dont like this. But this is just part of 1 song. I'll wait for the album to drop to decide.

 

[Joey]

The song was pretty mediocre, but I really liked the video.

 

[Craig Fairfax]

I'm not one to diss a style change, but i'm pretty sure that sucked.

Same here. One of my favourite bands AFI went through a massive change in style over the years yet all of it is pretty dam good. This though...

I've grown to like this. But I'm not letting myself get too excited. I've got anticipation for this to be a fun record.

The full song sounds a hell of a lot better. Pity about the chorus backing vocals.

 

[TheMysteriousThug]

The Na na na's are kind of overkill. They did record a version in Simlish for the next expansion pack for The Sims 3. Should be fun.

Album art:

I miss Gerard's artwork. But I'm pretty sure Frank did this one.

 

[TeamOverload]

Surprised this hasn't leaked yet. I know they have quite a few songs out, and they're alright, but nothing that's really special or making me really want to keep on listening over and over. Hoping there's a few hidden gems on the actual cd, but only time will tell.

This. Looking like a ridiculous rainbow doesnt make you a better band.

 

[january39]

It's okay, but then it ain't my bag really - easy enough to listen to though.

 

[Robby]

Just downloaded it.

It's an OK album. Not as good as their old stuff, but it isn't bad.

 

[MenaceInc]

Better than The Black Parade, worse than Three Cheers... or I Brought You My Bullets...


Really liking Sing, probably my favourite song off the album. Destroya and Save Yourself, I'll Hold Them Back are pretty good too but overall it's an alright album I guess.

 

[Craig Fairfax]

It's their worst album but not necessarily a bad one. I like The Kids From Yesterday, Save Yourself, I'll Hold Them Back, Vampire Money, and Zero Percent. The worst song would have to be Planetary (GO!), it just sounds out of place; like how teenagers sounded out of place on The Black Parade.
