My Chemical Romance Biography

My Chemical Romance is an alternative pop/rock and punk-pop band that has been compared to Thursday and to a lesser degree Cursive. Many of their songs are loud fast hyper and aggressive but My Chemical Romance's work also tends to be melodic and pop-minded. My Chemical Romance got started in the early 2000s when lead singer Gerard Way and drummer Matt Pelissier decided to try writing some songs together. Way and Pelissier both felt good about the song and Way asked guitarist Ray Toro if he would be interested in working with them. My Chemical Romance's five-man lineup was complete when Way Pelissier and Toro joined forces with bassist Mikey Way (Gerard Way's brother) and guitarist Frank Iero. Both bands were from New Jersey both had recorded for Eyeball and both combined punk-pop's musical aggression with introspective confessional lyrics. Plus I Brought You My Bullets You Brought Me Your Love was produced by Geoff Rickly Thursday's lead singer -- add all of those things up and there was no way that My Chemical Romance was going to escape Thursday comparisons. But Thursday isn't their only influence; reviewers have cited the Smiths Morrissey the CureThe Smashing Pumpkins and the Misfits as influences. And Way has even cited British heavy metal icons Iron Maiden as an influence.
