My Chemical Romance emerged from New Jersey in the aftermath of the 9/11 atrocity to become the standard-bearers for a new fusion of punk, glam, and emo. MCR achieved global prominence in 2006 with the release of their platinum-selling albumWelcome to the Black Parade.Extensive touring has added to their worldwide fan base with incendiary sold-out live shows. In this provocative biography, Reinhardt Haydn presents a comprehensive profile of the band, from its hardscrabble start to its rocky upward climb to its present superstar status.

It's Easy Peasy Pumpkin Peasy....,

This review is from: My Chemical Romance: This Band Will Save Your Life (Paperback)
I haven't finished the book yet, but let me just tell you- It is most likely the BEST biogrophy of them out of them all. They go into detail about many situations that were very little talked about, or not at all on LOTMS. I would suggest you know a bit of background on the band before you read it, and watch life on the murder scene, familiar with each cd etc. You can feel like you know everything there is to know about the band, but you WILL learn something reading this..There's full page pictures on about every other page...All in all, if you're an MCR fan, you GOTTA READ THIS!

This review is from: My Chemical Romance: This Band Will Save Your Life (Paperback)
I love this book, I felt like I was following the band through out their lives. I recived this book as a present and pages 13-22 fell out with in the first 10 minutes of reading it! The condition didn't stop me from reading more and more. I finished this book in a day, I was so into it. It was a great book I felt like it opened readers up into their lives and that you were really a band member with them. I felt like it focused alot on Gerard Way more than the other members. I know he is the frontman and all but I didn't learn nearly as much about Ray and Bob compared to Gerard. Great read I recommend it from any My Chem fan.

Easy Read, Thoroughly Engrossing,
This review is from: My Chemical Romance: This Band Will Save Your Life (Paperback)
As a rule I despise nonfiction, but this book is like our generation's "Hammer of the Gods" (albeit a much easier read). I bought this when I was beginning to get interested in My Chemical Romance, and reading it increased my appreciation for the band tenfold. These guys are fascinating, not to mention all-around great people, and the little facts you learn about the band on the way are quite interesting. This would be a great book to have on hand for those times when you don't want to do too much deep thinking but still want something that will inform and edify.
