"Melissa and I were talking once about how MCR exists on a continuum from "Raw to Polished." Their first album, bullets, is their most honest, heartfelt album, but can be hard to listen to at times because it is extremely raw and the songwriting doesn't really shine. It's a lot of screaming and banging on instruments, and its never done much for me. The last album, on the other hand, is so put together I don't even know if I would call it emo/punk anymore. It's very poppy and happy and anthemy from start to finish.
I think this album, and The Black Parade, sit nicely in the middle of the spectrum. I'm Not Okay was my first single MCR song, but I actually didn't listen to the full Three Cheers until long after I'd listened to The Black Parade. While the latter is a masterpiece of a concept album, I do think this one ends up feeling a bit more liberated by just being A Bunch of Very Good songs instead of trying to tell a whole story.
It's funny you bring up "Get what you deserve" because I actually have noticed that before I one time considered writing a dubious blog post about how themes of consequence and justice kinda weave through a lot of MCR's lyrics. But I didn't end up writing it." - Alex

my albums
conocí este album cuando era chica. cuando vestirse de negro y pintarse mucho los ojos estaba mal visto. siempre me atrapó la oscuridad del sonido y la crudeza de las letras. cuando fui adolescente, entendí que mi lugar estaba en todos los discos de MyChem, pero mi corazón pertenecía a Revenge. ahora soy adulta (aun no una vieja chota) y cada año que pasa agradezco haberme topado con este disco, que me dió sentido de pertenencia y una identidad. crece conmigo, pero no envejece.
