Rest Of September Until Now Pt. 3


HRBT Channel:
·      “Has anyone else noticed that the HRBT channel has changed too? It's not a regular heart monitor thing anymore, it's getting kinda... funky... like whatever's attached to the monitor is in danger, or dying. I'm no good with symbolism, do you have any clue what this all could mean?”
o      As far as the HRBT channel goes, I listened to it last night, but haven’t noticed any changes.

From MTV: My Chemical Romance’s Danger Days: Born In The USA:
·      And that’s sort of the point, isn’t it? Dangers Days isn’t supposed to plumb the same murky depths The Black Parade did or strike the same misfit poses as Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. If it did either of those things, it would be a rehash — and probably quite boring — and My Chem don’t do rehashes. They set the past ablaze and walk away from the pyre, stumbling off into the darkness with only the flames to light the way. This is a large part of what makes them a great band: They are fearless, almost to a fault. And Danger Days is most definitely their most fearless album, proudly — almost defiantly — kissing the past goodbye, ditching the pancake makeup and overwrought histrionics for an album’s worth of lean, mean, missile-launcher rock.

Special Edition Box Set Preorders:
·      If you follow @MCROfficial or check the site often, you probably already know that they’ve started preorders for a super sweet special edition box set for the album for $69.99. (FYI: f you live in Texas and go with standard shipping, that’ll come out to around $80.) Alt Press is also reporting on it. It’s…rather expensive, but I’m also pretty sure this has the most stuff in it of all the special edition sets that they’ve done, too. According to the box set’s purchase page, if you preorder before November 11th, it’s more or less guaranteed to arrive on the 22nd.

“The Only Hope for Me is You”:
·      Miss Calamity Cassie, everybody’s favorite Poison Woman, tweeted about Amazon having a page up for a possible new MCR single last night. (Behold the Amazon page.) Everything on the page is spelled correctly, but so far as I know, there hasn’t been anything advertised about the release of another single so soon. Guess we’ll just have to wait until October 12th to find out.

KLSK:
·      The KLSK station has once again changed songs. Someone told Yekith“Horse Latitudes” by The Doors. (Now is about the time when those of us who remember a voice post by Frank get a little nostalgic.) Yekith also found that there’s a Wikipedia page on horse latitudes, so if anyone wants to start looking at that… that the song (more like a creepy-ass rant, really) is

Most Anticipated Album:
·      Lastly, for now, MTV is holding a poll asking which album we’re most anticipating this season. (This also comes via Cassie on Twitter.) I think we know what the answer is, no? Fortunately, they’re an option on the poll!

Random Stuff:
·      A lot of things were said and done before the premiere of “NaNaNa”, so much so that the fandom rejoiced in more ways than one. But soft, what is this? Suddenly “Only Hope” is released with little more than an amazon page announcing it’s existance and a tweet here and there from the guys once it’s arrived.
·      Why the sudden 2nd single? And with a song that’s been paralleled in magazines to Famous Last Words, one of MCR’s most famous songs, you’d think it’d get as much coverage as “NaNaNa”.
·      And then I had a silly little thought. Much like WTTBP and FLW, will NaNaNa and Only Hope be paired videos? Is that why they decided to release it after NaNaNa? They were just recording the video. Maybe they made a video for Only Hope, or possibly had an epiphamy to make a video for it later and decided to release it now.
·      Who knows, but if I’m right and we find out later that the videos were filmed much like The Black Parade set, I am so going to dance around and proclaim loudly, “I knew it!”
o       [Hmm… It’s an interesting theory! And an interesting observation to make. I can only hope, that if the two videos are paired up, that the video for “The Only Hope” doesn’t incite as visceral an emotional reaction as the video for FLW had on me. >.> I’d kind of like to be able to watch all the videos from this era on a regular basis! XD
o      Speaking of videos, did anybody see the extended preview for “Na Na Na” while it was still up? Someone has uploaded a ripped version to Media Share; should have that link later on.

WKIL:
·      In case this hasn’t gotten to you yet, WKIL has changed. In addition to what was already there, there is now a video transmission, much like the robot one (messed up and noisy) of what looks like a view of Battery City from some far away zone.

Show Pony = Johnny Weir?
·      This just in from Station MITH, it has been assumed that Show Pony is a very popular and famous American ice skater know as Johnny Weir. This is speculation, but a J. W. and MCR fan posted this artwork on deviantART stating so. My own knowledge of this ice skater is telling it’s not him, but it’s something to think about. Are there any other well-known male skaters, ice or otherwise, that are this freaking pretty???
o      I’m not very familiar with skating in gerneral, so I don’t know. But I did a quick search on Google Images and I think they look fairly similar.

Twitter Conferms Show Pony:
·      Looks like that solves that. Show Pony = Ricky Rebel.

Second Video Underway?
·      From LA Times Hero Complex Twitter:
o      “Today: Headed to My Chemical Romance video shoot with Grant Morrison cameo www.herocomplex.com #mcr
§       So, I’m guessing it means the 2nd video was shot this weekend. I’m guessing 2nd single is, after all, “The Only Hope For Me Is You”… ‘cause releasing yet another song before Nov 22nd seems odd.


BL/ind Guest Pass/Employment Pass:
·      I’ve noticed this for quite a while now…just never thought to mention it until today. Around 1:23~1:24 on the official video for “Na Na Na”, I notice that there’s a card-thingy dangling along side the mousehead. Combine that with some of the ex-police force theory…maybe the Killjoys aren’t involved with S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W, but with BLind itself? And the fact that Sir Bald of Badass Korse tells Party Poison to “keep running”  makes everything a bit more…interesting. Also, at the end of the video, one of the Dracs seem very interested in the little girl’s radio…either there’s something special involving it, or he’s just very curious.
o      I could be misinterpreting, but are you suggesting that the Killjoys are aligned with BL/ind? Personally, I don’t think that’s very likely. Korse’s message the end to “keep running” doesn’t seem like friendly advice. We’ve seen in one of the music video previews that the Dracs carry BL/ind name tags… The other, more plausible option is that the Killjoys formerly were involved with BL/ind somehow but either left or were forced out. Korse really seems to have it out for the guys, which puts into question why he stole the Little Girl in the first place. Spite? Is she important to BL/ind?

Stories From The Zones:
·      This message appeared on my Twitter feed by way of MCRmyWORLDWIDE, which included this link. The message reads as follows:
o      Welcome Motorbabies,

Your skills have granted you access to hijacked BLI communication frequency 4065.5. As we all know, BLI has begun expanding the Battery City borders further out into the zones, pushing everyone else further away from our few remaining resources. 


It’s time to let the world out there know about the world in here, and that’s where you come in. We need your stories, news reports, diaries, one-act dramas, and home movies about life out in the zones. We need coverage from every area, from the wastelands and artificial forests, to the heart of Battery City itself. It doesn’t matter where you live, we just need to know how you’re living.


We will compile the best of your stories and patch them through, as many as we can before BLI drops the “X” on us. Let’s show everyone what life is like under the shadow of Better Living Industries, art will be our weapon.

·      Now we’ve already got enough heat on us, so no using music or images that you don’t own the rights to. We’re not looking for some slick Fact News or Brand Land production, we’re just looking for the truth.

Very Interesting Post:

Rest Of September Until Now Pt. 2

 Thoughts:
·      “WHAT IF "Scarecrows" are actually radio towers. And "S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W" means something else, like every letter has a meaning y'know? And maybe that's Frank's code name in the Dangerverse: S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W not Scarecrow... did that make sense?”
o      Like an overly-long acronym? They do have a history of overly-long titles… In all seriousness it’s something to look into, though I’m not sure where we’d even begin with something like that.

·      “I'm pretty sure by the time this record comes out, EVERY character will be dead, including Dr. Death, PartyPoison, ALL of them. I mean, its in the future, so its not like it really matters if they live, its not like they're gonna use this concept again. Based on tweets alone, I'd say we're gonna find out that everyone is dead by Nov 22nd.”
o      Um… Gonna have to disagree with this one. Just because News A Go Go is out of service and we haven’t heard from Agent Cherri Cola since he last noted his body count doesn’t mean we’re headed for a Kill Em All scenario. (And we don’t even know if the News is actually dead or just captured. You never really can tell with totalitarian type government systems.) Plus, when you consider that Dr. Death Defying apparently opens and closes the CD.

·      “So I don't know if this has been said, but watching the lyric video again (for the sixtieth time...) I got thinking about the BL/ind can at the "eight legs to the wall" part. Eight legs might symbolise the four band members, as I'm pretty sure you've already established. Eight legs also meaning a spider. BL/ind standing for Better Living Industries, maybe? After a little thinking, my confused brain has come to the conclusion that the can is representing bug spray, which would make sense. Better Living Industries vs. the four Killjoys (the spider).”
o      Good observation! I totally thought it was a can of spray paint, but this interpretation makes a lot more sense.

·      “I'm pretty sure you're right about Frank being part of an organization, or was at one point anyway. According to an interview that I've misplaced, S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W is a sort of police force, and we all speculated that S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W was frank, so perhaps he's ex police?”
o      That would be this Spin article where Ray talks about the existence of a police force called S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W. I really do like the idea of Frank as ex-police, if only because it would explain why he’s such a badass (as if he needs any explanation) and would also possibly explain why the figure in the bed has on a similar jacket.

·      “So in the NA NA NA video I noticed this one point where there is a guy that is wearing the exact same thing as Frank on the bed at 2:41. I am not sure if it is Frank my gut says it is ahahaha. I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed the same thing I did.”
o      The question of who is on the bed is something that’s been debated and prodded at a lot. I was really hoping we’d get some clarification on who it is with the release of the video, but I guess not. But there is a thought that it was News A Go Go.

·      “I have just realized that Toro's jacket has the same logo as Frank's- Maybe he's part of whatever Frank is as well? Or was? Thought I'd share.”
o      Frank and Ray as former cops? I like the sound of it! Here’s hoping someone offers up some high-res screencaps for examination.

·      “When did the creepy-evil-bald-guy from the Na Na Na video get the name 'Korse'?”
o      Korse’s name is seen in the newspaper Frank is reading during the Art is the Weapon trailer. (I’m also trying to frantically remember where it is I saw it, but there’s a picture of the bloodied bed from the motel room scene which also has a good shot of the newspaper. Not operating on all pistons today…) The headline is, if I can remember correctly, includes some variation of “next Korse of action” and is followed by Sir Bald of Evil’s picture. (Sir Bald of Evil isn’t a canon name; just a placeholder until we could figure out what his actual name was.).

·      “This might be Wild Mass Guessing, but maybe News A Go Go is the Little Girl's mom? Since we know the News is dead...and since I don't think we ever knew the gender of the News...Maybe the Little Girl is the News' kid. It would explain why there is a little kid running around, and why it looks like the Little Girl got snatched by Dracs. Maybe the Killjoys saved her and decided to look after her.”
o      That would be really depressing. And also sweet if the Killjoys swooped in and rescued/are looking after her that way. I personally hope that the News has just been captured, but that’s wishful thinking more likely.

·      This is a teaser for the Na Na Na video. There are a couple things that caught my eye, but the most interesting thing was at about 00:58 you see a corpse of some sort in the sand, dressed in what appears to be a Black Parade-esque uniform. But anywho, I’d like to thank you for creating this tumblr and updating it so diligently. I’d be lost without you.”
o      I’d noticed the skeleton but was having trouble making out the uniform, but it seems like they could be doing a little Continuity Nod or maybe just enjoying a little tongue-in-cheek humor. (The last thing they put out is called The Black Parade is Dead!, after all.) Also, did anyone else notice that the road sign at the beginning of the video says “guano”? Guano is bat poop. Insert all manner of “bat country” or “batshit crazy” jokes here. The other thing I noticed? Looks like the Killjoys aren’t the only ones with a sweet car. Korse is riding stylish, too!

·      “I think the theory of Frank being a cop should be out. Cause his name is Fun Ghoul not Scarecrow. Scarecrow is probably just the defense force that Ray said.  I'm not even sure who said that Frank was (part of) Scarecrow in first place...”
o      I know I’d made a suggestion in one of the previous posts that Frank’s codename might be Scarecrow because of the stamp on the back of the print and the way it looked like a robot or scarecrow face type…thing. But now we have evidence that it’s the name of the police force, so the idea sort of morphed into the question of, “Well, what if he used to be part of this force and defected?” I’m not sure I’m entirely ready to throw the idea out, but it’s still in the realm of things we’re not certain about.

·      “People have been talking about why ‘Only Hope’ has been released when Na Na Na has only just come out etc. And I was just as confused as everyone else. Then I was thinking about two things they said. One being what Frank wrote on the website in his blog ‘To Kill A Demon Shark’ which was “We have a plan, and we are sticking to it.” The other was what Gerard said in the KROQ interview when asked when the video was coming out. He said that Na Na Na wasn’t even going to be a single at one point. Both of those things together got me thinking. That maybe at some point ‘Only Hope’ was going to be the first single and ‘Na Na Na’ was chosen instead when Art Is The Weapon got such a great response. That would mean that it was in their plan at the start to release Only Hope around this time but when they changed the first single they decided not to change Only Hope’s release and release it anyway as a ‘treat’ for us.”
o      Hmm… I’m not sure. It’s possible. I was talking with someone about it and the question was raised about whether or not the release of “The Only Hope” was a case of Executive Meddling—in that, perhaps the studio wanted them to release that one for some reason or another. It just seems really fast, no? However… I need to watch the KROQ interview again, but wasn’t there talk about trying to make the videos connect again, like during the TBP era? I’m a bit gray with that memory, but… I really do like the song. It’s different from “Na Na Na”, it doesn’t get me as charged up, but it…does something. I can’t put my finger on it, the same way I can’t quite put my finger on the effect the video for Famous Last Words has on me, but it’s… It does something. I like it.

·      “You know how in the end of the music video, it says BL/ind "The aftermath is secondary." In Dr. Death Defying's transmission he also says that. Do you think this means that the Killjoys/Dr. Death Defying and BL/ind are connected like, in a good way?”
o      I don’t think that’s very likely. If the three were connected in a good way, there would likely be no reason for Korse—who is running with a posse of Draculoids (who have BL/ind badges or name tags) and driving (or being driven around in) what I assume is a Better Living Industries company car—to kidnap the Little Girl. Unless Korse is someone who has gone rogue or is more focused on settling some sort of personal vendetta with the Killjoys… I’m not honestly sure how that, then, accounts for Dr. Death Defying’s use of what appears to be BL/ind’s motto. Maybe he uses it ironically or has turned it into a positive rallying cry?

·      “You seriously need to go to MCR’s transmission page and click on WKIL… That is just a major OMG! moment right there.”
o       You mean the distant shot of Battery City taken from the desert? Quite intriguing, yes. I meant talk about it when someone told me about it on Twitter but somehow just didn’t get around to it. D: It’s rather intriguing, though. Who’s doing the filming? Why? Is that really Battery City or is it someplace else?

·      “I don't know if this has been brought up yet, but on the transmissions page, the knobs on the bottom right of the TV set now have symbols: an X and a lightning bolt. if you click on the lightning bolt, a popup appears and it gives you embed codes to embed the transmissions TV on any sit, even your desktop!”
o      That’s definitely news to me! Thanks for the head’s up.

·      “Now I understand, you need to click the numbers in the TV thingy in this order: 01, 76, 02, 78, 31, 36 and the screen will say "You have accessed a clean channel, to proceed click here..." And it will redirect you to this page: http://www.mychemicalromance.com/transmissions/form.php”
o      I was wondering how @MCRmyWORLDWIDE got a hold of that link… Thanks for the tip!

Rest Of September Until Now Pt. 1


October’s Happenings

Note: I am sorry I have not updated in so long. I slipped a disk in my back and it has been very dificult to do things. But alas, I will be getting surgery hopefully mid-November, so everything should be good soon. In the mean time, here is the updates which have been going on all month!

When I miss something important, I always go to this tumblr to see what happened. What I am posting is from her. She is on top of things and I appriciate what she has been doing. I thank her for all the information. Her layout on her tumblr is a little confusing, but I think I’ll manage.

Here is a list of interviews/articles/photos since the last time I posted.

·      My Chemical Romance Get Dangerous In Na Na Na Na:
·      My Chemical Romance Broadcasting Transmissions:
o      http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/my_chemical_romance_broadcasting_tv_transmissions_from_2019/

The Newspaper seen in the Na Na Na Na video:
·      The newspaper explains what this photo belongs to. It also reinforces the fact that this is taking place in 2019, though we’re not sure of the month. What we can see of the month gives us a time frame of September to December. There’s also been some question about the identity of S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W and why they would provide these photographs. Katie had this to say:
o      I’m currently toying with the idea that S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W is Frank and sent the photo to the paper as a ‘fuck you’ and they’ve just been using it over and over again. Like a stock photo. (Source)
·      While I’m not sure it was sent in as a “fuck you”, I do suspect something similar on the reusing front.
·      There’s also been some discussion about the Latin composing the actual article itself. I was really hoping there would be some juicy new details to flesh out Dangerverse hidden inside, but alas! It appeared not. It looked more like the “Lorem Ipsum” stock text that everybody uses when they need to fill space with words. And then someone offered up a possible translation of the text that made it seem like perhaps it wasn’tsomeone else chimed in saying it was “Lorem Ipsum” after all… “Lorem Ipsum”, but

Battery City:
·      As of right now, it’s looking very likely that Battery City is the in-universe name for Los Angeles. I’m leaning towards the idea that Battery City = LA, but I’m only going on the evidence that others have provided.
·      One person left said in one of the Battery City posts:
o      Another would be the energy store in The U.S actually called Battery City. (Mostly the name speaks for itself; and, well there actually isn’t any mention of the term “park” when MCR say Battery City; and, Battery Park City isn’t in the central of the area its located in, also Battery Park City and Battery Park border water). I think its a spin on the Battery City (store). And expanding that “energy” into an actual city that keeps running, like they’ve got what you need to survive and replenish by being the epicenter of activity of daily lives. The “what you need” can be an easy mixture of literal and figurative and supplies and most importantly.. people.
Agent Cherri Cola’s tweet about going into Battery City suggests whatever type of people can be found there, especially those who are “controlling” what’s left of that civilization and imprinted the idea that the Killjoys are dangerous and wanted. Something else about Battery City and energy, is about the whole “Power Pup” acting as fuel and being dispensed in ready made machines. The whole industrial and corporate aspect and tone about the environment the Killjoys are faced with presents it more with a meaning about symbiotic and kinetic energy. (Source)

On The Note Of The Transmissions Page:
·      “I was looking through the channels on the transmissions page again, and BLND is now showing zone surveillance 1D (i.e. rollerskating Ladyboy) before cutting to the weather report. As for it’s significance, I can’t really be sure, but it’s starting to feel like no one’s friend Better Living Industries are always watching.”
o      Other people have been talking about it. It must be that somethings up with their reception; most of the channels have 3 or 4 horizontal lines going down the screen.

·      The song on KLSK has changed to "I'm Against It/ I'm Always Get My Man" also the beginning screen, the yellow one, is no longer connect to the dial.
·      KLSK now has two songs on it from the movie Horse Feathers. The Horse theme strikes again!

·      “Isn't all this horse stuff just about the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse?”
o      That is a very good theory on it, but we don’t know if it could be true or not yet.

Batman:
·      In Na Na Na Na, when the song comes to the part where it goes:
o      Let me tell you about the sad man.
o      Shut up and let me see your jazz hands.
o      Remember when you were a mad man.
o      Thought you was Batman…
·      Around the time he says the word Batman, you can here Gerard ‘na na na’-version the beginning of the Batman theme song.

Wow, A Whole Month:
·      “Can you believe it's been 1 month since the whole WTFery started? Feels like this has been my life... it's nuts. Just felt like pointing that out.”
o      It’s very strange to wrap my head around, even back when it was just two weeks in.

Official Album Cover:
·      If you’ve already seen the preorder page over at HMV, then you probably already know what the cover art for the upcoming album looks like. And maybe that’s partially why I’m kind of underwhelmed by its unveiling. I dunno. Personally, it’s not what I would’ve gone with.
·      HOWEVER, it’s ain’t about how good it looks and all about how good it sounds, and it does fit with the open, bright, free aesthetic going on, so it gets points there.

From September 27th and Before


Stuff On S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W:
·      So… did anyone notice who provided the photos shown in the Battery City Times? The ones with their faces crossed in red and the label “Exterminate”… check the enlarged version of the pic posted along w/ Ray’s blog about Na Na Na: http://www.mychemicalromance.com/blog/ray/na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-itunes-today
·      Right under Mikey’s.
·      “Photos provided by S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W”
·      Just to point it out: Date is December 7, 2019.
·      And as far as I can see, only the first column has actual text, the rest is that filler text one uses when trying out a layout for publishing (“Lorem ipsum…”).
·      Moving on to the map thing…
·      In the lyrics video (which, by the way, is awesome) we can see something that looks like an actual map!!! on 1’51” we have a full version and then goes to close up on 1’52”. Couldn’t get a screencap, but I’m sure someone out there will :)
·      PS: Make no apologies, it’s death or victory!

The Bl/ind Newscast thing:
·      On the Power Pup can: Better Living INDustries = BLIND?

Another thing:
·      CONFIRMATION! Agent Cherri Cola is a “sir”!
·      @PartyPoison just tweeted it.

Zones:
·      I believe this shows the zones:

A Message I received on LJ:
·      Hi Liz,
·          I'm letxmexlove and I have been reading your blog over at blogspot about the new MCR album. I don't have a blogspot so I am using LJ to get into contact with you. I am completely intrigued with this whole mystery and have some personal theories to share with you. I am not a Mystery X character or anything of the sort,just a fan with a few ideas.
·         I have just come upon these ideas as I was talking with a friend. I'll try to organize them in the best way possible. If you don't understand something please let me know and ill clarify it.
·          1. What is Dr. Death a fugitive of?
·             We know that Dr. Death is being persecuted by AgentCherriCola who is being controlled by NewsAGoGo. My question is what is causing Dr. Death to hide in the desert? What did he do that is causing hit men to chase after him? What does DDD have that is so important that News wants him dead?
·          2. What caused this post-apocalyptic state that the characters are stuck in? What war happened that caused radio active deserts, battery-fueled beings, and creepy radio transmissions to become the new world?
·          3. What does Dr. Death have that everybody wants?/Who is he that News wants him dead? and where is taking it to/where is he going?

·           I believe that humans created technology so far advanced that it backed fired and began to control us. There was a war between the humans and robots that destroyed everything and ultimately put power into the hands of the robots. From the tweets it seems like most of the characters are computer-minded. Perhaps there was a war of power between the robots. Now Dr. Death is on the run because he didn't agree with the way News was running things. News obviously wants DDD death but why? What was so bad that death is the only answer. Maybe Dr. Death has very important information that News doesn't want released.
·          What if the hunt of Dr. Death is the release of the album or more information about the album. Maybe once Dr. Death reaches his destination or is captured something about the album will be revealed? Maybe DDD is the horse who the songs keep signaling to. Could Horse With No Name be about the journey of Dr. Death?
·           NewsAGoGo seems to be starting some kind of revolution where authority doesn't exist, anarchy rules and rules are non-existant. He is telling people to take sides and chose which people want to be on. Perhaps he's the mastermind behind the war and why the robots are now in control?
·         PartyPoison was activated on September 11th. The band was born back on September 11th, 2001. Perhaps this has a deep significance? If PP is supposedly on DDD's side why does she ask for updates from News?
·           Those are the thoughts running through my mind. I bet there are more but it's 2:24AM and my head is jumbled beyond belief. If any more theories enter my mind i'll be sure to let you know. Perhaps you can post some of my theories/questions on your blog to be answered or to lead the path to more ideas. Either way thank you for the taking the time to read my nonsense ideas. I appreciate it. Have a good day/night. I look forward to hearing back from you.

o      I agree totally what with you are saying. I don’t have any answers, but this is a very good theory. What you have said has kind of been lingering in my mind, but I never put it together like you have. Thank you for sending me this. It’s really a great theory.

·      Enjoi!
·      Sincerely,
·      Frank and your handsome friends at My Chemical Romance

·      My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way called in to Kerrang! Radio and explained the inspiration behind Danger Days: True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.
Way says that what he loves about the bands upcoming album is that "there's not really a story to follow," a definite change for a band that is known for its concept albums.

"This record, you can just turn up really loud, and enjoy it in a different way. There's obviously meaning in every song and I'm speaking very directly to the listener, but there's no story to follow. The real story this time was the journey we took to create the album."


"It is definitely a record to listen to from start to finish, but I think it's one of those things that you'll find a favorite song kind of every other time you listen to it."


Regarding the band's drastic, colorful image change, Way said it was something the band had really wanted to do.


"If anything, it was a rebellion against how we used to look... If [this record] is rebelling against anything, it's rebelling against ourselves."


Way feels confident that fans will take the change well.


"I feel like the selves that we're rebelling against are the guys who went in to make that previous attempt. It wasn't the guys making ...Revenge, or the guys making ...Bullets... and ...Parade. We're basically gunning for these guys who had made this attempt at this 'rock record,' and what we ended up with, in my opinion, is something that is far more of a rock album in terms of its spirit. It does sound like a band that's free and rebelling against something."

RUMORED New Drummer:
·      Tim Hagevik is the new drummer for my chemical romance

What The People For MCR Are:
·      Alright! So, this is who we know so far. (Any name marked with a ** is what is more or less still an educated guess as opposed to officially canon.)
·      Dr. Death Defying: Runs the WKIL transmissions channel, which is a pirate radio station. Older gentleman with a nice voice. Quite possibly suffers from physical challenges that leave him dependent on crutches and a motorized wheelchair. Adversarial relationship with News A Go Go; undetermined relationship with Agent Cherri Cola; supportive of Party Poison and the other Killjoys, if not an outright friendship or mentor-ship; knows Tommy Chow Mein. Hangs out/works with Show Pony. (Twitter: http://twitter.com/drdeathdefyinghttp://twitter.com/drdeathdefying)
·      Agent Cherri Cola: So far, all we know about Agent Cherri Cola is what’s on their Twitter account. We don’t even know their gender! Possibly a robot or cyborg. Has an undetermined relationship with Dr. Death Defying, as well as undetermined relationships with News A Go Go and Party Poison. (Twitter: http://twitter.com/agentcherricolahttp://twitter.com/agentcherricola)
·      News A Go Go: As the name implies, some sort of news outlet. Whether one person or a collective comprise News A Go Go is as yet undetermined, though they tend to use first person plural pronouns. Possibly attached to the BLND transmissions channel, which currently shows a weather report for the Zones and three surveillance videos. Adversarial relationship with Dr. Death Defying. Undetermined relationship with Agent Cherri Cola; possibly they worked together in the past, but now they don’t. Finds the -a suffix a sufficient substitute for -er suffix. (Twitter: http://twitter.com/newsagogohttp://twitter.com/newsagogo)
·      Tommy Chow Mein: According to News A Go Go, nobody knows why he exists. Also according to News A Go Go, he is possibly not operating on all pistons. Initially came on the scene trying to sell various things, mostly plots of land. Later revealed to have some sort of connection to Dr. Death Defying, perhaps as a gofer of goods. (Twitter: http://twitter.com/TommyChowMeinhttp://twitter.com/tommychowmein)
·      Party Poison: Possible leader of a motor army (or gang) comprised of four men and a little girl. Wears a distinctively large blue-furred mouse/cat helmet, which appears to act as part of a rebreather unit. Also known for wearing a yellow mask covered in blue spots and black triangles above and below the eyes. Stands apart from his friends by his bright red hair and blue leather jacket. Symbol is a reinvention of the classic jolly roger with a two-color pill capsule above a solid X. Appears to at have some kind of connection to Dr. Death Defying and has been seen communicating to News A Go Go. Possibly has some history with Korse. (Twitter: http://twitter.com/partypoisonhttp://twitter.com/partypoison)
·      Kobra Kid**: A member of Party Poison’s motor army, along with S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W and Jet-Star. Possibly his brother. Wears a yellow motorcycle helmet bearing the phrase GOOD LUCK across the visor. His symbol is of a snake with fangs bared.

Symbol is a round face with mismatched eyes and a mouth that is either a squiggly line or stitches. Depending on…no one is quite sure what, he seems to adorn this symbol with either a halo or horns.
·      Jet-Star**: A member of the same motor army as Party Poison, Kobra Kid, and S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W. [Good lord, I hope that spelling turns out to be not canon! Like…codename, yes. Spelling… Let’s just have it Scarecrow, please? XD] Wears an astronaut type of helmet with a yellow lightning bolt down right side. Also possesses a blue mask with hot pink around the eyes. Symbol is a black star with white eyes and a mouth, as well as a small lightning bolt or fuse on the left arm of the star.
·      Little Girl: An adorable little girl who travels around with Party Poison, Kobra Kid, S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W, and Jet-Star. Not much is yet known about her or why she’s with them.

·      Show Pony: A tall, slender young man with impressive rollerskating skills. Known by his distinctive spotted outfit and shirt bearing the word NOISE. Possibly has some training as a dancer? Either works or hangs out with Dr. Death Defying. To date, his face has not been seen, as it is concealed by a motorcycle helmet.
·      Korse: A tall, bald man with inhumanly pale skin and a penchant for olive green. Never seen without his badass longcoat or his headphones. Travels around with Draculoids. Has a directly antagonistic relationship with Party Poison and his friends and possibly an indirect antagonistic relationship with Dr. Death Defying. Status of employment with News A Go Go is at this time undetermined.

Okay, so, My Chemical Romance will be the death of me.
·      It’s true. I thought it was over. But then this appeared.
·     
·      Uhm, yeah. It’s some creepy guy giving the Weather report. But here’s the thing:
·      The station isn’t BLND, it’s BL/ind.
·      At first, no big deal. Then I’m like, “Hey. Ind could stand for something all by itself. And if that’s true, then we have to look at BL by itself. Not together.”
·      Uhm, yeah. I have conversations with myself.
·      So, I figured it out. By looking at Gerard Way’s Twitter page. No kidding.
·      BL/ind stands for Better Living Industries. They control everything. It’s obvious because they have vending machines, food, television stations with, “the only news.”
·     
·      Well, this is the weather report. I feel like we’re missing something here. There are six zones he mentioned plus Battery City. So Battery City is located outside the zones. Damn. The only place left?
·      Zones 1-3 are very warm weather. Zones 4-6 are having acid rain all week. How nice. Battery City, however, has comfortable weather.
·      After the weather report, the creepy cameras come on. First, the mouse guy (Gerard, I’m guessing) with creepy music. Second, draculoids with the sound of helicopter blades and someone talking. Then a phone ringing. Third, sounds of the beach. Waves and seagulls. Oh, and NOISE aka Show Pony aka Ladyboy. What are these cameras for? Surveillance? If so, who’s watching?
·      Better Living Industries. They must kind of act like government or authority in this world, keeping everything in order. Everything that has Better Living’s logo on it appears to be colorless, like the cans of food or the vending machine.
·      So I went back to the part in the video with the vending machine and noticed something else. The newspaper that Frank is reading, WANTED: THE KILLJOYS. With their pictures. Older pictures, though. Underneath, it has Grant Morrison’s picture. “What’s his next Korse of Action?” WTF?! THEY SPELLED COURSE WRONG!
·      Haha, I’m kidding. They probably did it on purpose.
·      So if they did it on purpose, and they spelled course as korse, that means it has to be related to Grant Morrison… Or should I say, Korse?
·      Hmm. And at the end, Grant fights the Killjoys. The Killjoys are wanted by the government. So, therefore, Grant must work for the government. Okay, can I just call him Korse? He has to be Korse.
·      Perhaps Korse is in charge of everything. The newspaper wondered what his next move would be— That’s a typical thing you would expect to be written of someone in politics.
·      So, I’m just repeatedly going over the trailer for anything that was missed. First thing you notice is NOISE aka Show Pony aka Ladyboy going through a graffitied mess of a broken down shack. On the window you can read “BRAKES” and “TUNE-UPS.” So, probably an old auto body shop. Then the next thing is we see the Killjoys in an old Diner. Though, the n and r are missing, so it’s just DI E . Clever. The vending machine with Better Living’s logo is outside.
·      At the end of the video, it’s obvious they escaped Korse again. The sounds of the helicopter are evident as it is in the surveillance video of the draculoids.

NewsAGoGo Dead:
·      Twitter feed NewsAGoGo has been put down. AgentCherriCola starts the battle of Battery City. Seems there is a war coming? Any more theories?

More Theories:
·      Mysteriously, NewsAGoGo’s profile picture and background changed into the Power Pup logo [or the Better Living Industries logo]. Yesterday, he [I’m assuming it’s a he] twitter this:
o      Trannnssssssmisssssionnn @drrrrrrrdeeeeethdddeeefyinggggg HELPppllLLLppp!!!,.,
·      And with his new profile picture he twitted this 14 minutes ago:
o      The following statement is being brought to you by Power Pup. http://yfrog.com/jtmobijhttp://yfrog.com/jtmobij
o      Power Pup. All rights reserved. Any violation will result in alteration, dislocation, and relocation.
o      This station is no longer operational. Have a BETTER day.
·      Many people predicted NewsAGoGo might be “Korse” [Grant Morrison aka the white bald guy] or someone working for him. I think he’s on the “good” side, as part of the resistance. He’s been communicating with Party Poison and Dr. Death Defying. So I think he’s on our side. Plus he asked Dr. Death Defying for help, how much more do you need?
·      The BLND channel on the transmissions page features a weather broadcast saying Fact News is the only news. The logo BL/ind is also featured, which stands for Better Living Industries, which is on the Power Pup everything [kibble cans, soda machine]. BL/ind is on the bad side.
·      They found NewsAGoGo and took him down.
·      DJHotChimp tweeted:
·      So NewsAGoGo is dead. More from AgentCherriCola [who I’m convinced is Ladyboy/Show Pony]:
o      My god… @newsagogo down. They’re in the zones. @partypoisondrdeathdefying @djhotchimp don’t let them find you alive @
·      “They’re” obviously stands for the draculoids or the bad guys under Korse. So now all we have to do is wait.
·      Something is coming. All we have to do is keep our eyes open.
·      P.S. TommyChowMein just tweeted. This is giving me the idea that this is either random or that he’s on the evil side.
o      About to get my hands on some used television equipment! Anyone interested, stay tuned!
·      Actually, I’m thinking he’s just selling NewsAGoGo’s equipment. I don’t think anything he tweets is THAT relevant, honestly.
·      UPDATE:
·      AgentCherriCola’s new tweet:
o      Had enough. On overdrive. Heading into the heart of Battery City. Fist first. Taking out anyone in my way. FYW! Fuck Your World!
·      So he’s angry. And is going to go to Battery City [which is an environment controlled by the bad guys, I’m thinking].
