The Black Parade concept album was the first I have not listened to from the band. Billboard says the album has already begun with super-producer Brendan O'brien on hand to take the reigns. Hopefully some straight up rock without the theatrics is on the way.

I read something saying they were aiming to make this sort of a love rock record.

shouldn't all these topics be in Album / non singles category. If not I'm just gonna start making a thousand topics on every band that will eventually be making an album.
And Artie, before you basically say an album must be bad because it was concept, you might want to listen to it. Black Parade was an amazing album. I hope they make another album you don't like.....

I did not not listen to it because it was a concept album. The two singles that lead it were terrible for me. Although I remember playing Dead! a lot on Guitar Hero which was pretty cool. But I don't remember if that hit radio or not.

Three Cheers was a concept album too anyway. So was their first now that I think about it. MCR makes nothing but concept albums.

I've never noticed that about the first two albums myself. But these guys seem perfect to make a bombastic Queen-like loud rock album.

I'm just bummed they stopped at three hits. If any record I've ever heard could have had twelve hits, The Black Parade is it. Yeah, that's every song except "The End." and "Blood [Hidden Track]". It was unfortunate they had to delay the release of "Teenagers" as a gesture of courtesy, but even with that, it shouldn't have reduced the number of releases to any fewer than 9.
And I'm only half joking, too, if even that much. But I was very pleased with the reception the album received, with the pop hits, Rolling Stone's album of the year list (among countless other comparable lists). They transcended a sub-genre that's generally pushed aside by those who are "important" and those who think they are important.
The Black Parade = some good times. :).

I'm just bummed they stopped at three hits. They were going to release 2 more singles, but it kinda sucks that got scrapped.
