Average customer review:Product Description
Major label debut from the New Jersey indie-punk outfit, following on from 2002's 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love'. Following a similar formula to their debut this album blends the dark atmosphere of bands such as Joy Division and Cursive with melodic hooks and howling vocals ina similar way to AFI and in some respects The Cure though with a definite pop-punk influence throughout. More polished than its predecessor this album contains the single 'I'm NotOK (I Promise)'.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I bought this album after "The Black Parade", and for anyone only just starting to realise the brilliance of MCR's music, I think that's the best way to go.It took me a while to get used to The Parade, but I then (roughly)knew what to expect from "Three cheers for sweet revenge".
Three cheers is definitely darker than the Parade, but after hearing their third album you'll be used to darkness and anger.The lyrics in most of the songs are very aggressive,but I guess that's what pulls you in. My favorite tracks are "Helena", "Give 'em hell, Kid", "To the end", "Jetset life is gonna kill you" "Thank you for the Venom" and "I'm not Okay (I promise)". "You know, you've got something in your eye..." If you've seen the video for "I'm not Okay (I promise)", you'll know what on earth I'm talking about. If you haven't , WATCH IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Three Cheers for Sweet My Chemical Romance!!
This is the first My Chemical Romance album I ever bought and I fell in love with them. Not only does it have an awesome cover design Gerard Way has such an infectious and catchy voice and the music and lyrics are incredible. Altogether the perfect recepie for an album.
The songs are all marvelous but the songs I recommend the most would be Helena (track 1), To The End (track 3), I'm Not Okay (I Promise) (track 5), The Ghost of You (track 6) and Thank You For The Venom (track 9). Most people label My Chemical Romance as being a whinny, miserable emo band but that's just not true just listen to Give 'em Hell Kid (track 2) and you'll see what I mean. An awesome album!!
Even better than "The Black Parade!"
This album was MCR second album follwing their mini success of their debut album "I brought you my bullets, you brought me your love" is amazing. Starting with the song "Helena" written about lead vocalist and bassist Gerard and Mickey Way' grandmother really sets a great first impression. And song titles such as "You know what they do to guys like us in prison" and "I never told you what I do for a living" really sets the cotrasts of each individual song. However My Chemical Romance shouldn't be mistaken for "emo" music. My chem's lyrics are from the heart, and help teenagers find themselves, and finally find someone that understands them
ESSENTIAL BUY FOR ALL PUNK/ROCK FANS!
