New Jersey-based rock outfit My Chemical Romance are back with a new album, along with news of a mid-sized UK tour this winter.
After a busy summer of festivals across the UK, the five-piece release "The Black Parade", a concept album based on the death and spiritual ascendance of a man on October 9th.
Vocalist Gerard Way describes the album's concept as, "the story of a man who dies tragically before his time in a hospital. Death comes for him in the form of a Black Parade because his strongest childhood memory is of his father taking him to see a parade as a boy. The parade leads him to his final judgement. An examination of mortality."
The forthcoming UK tour will launch with a show on November 11th in Bournemouth, closing five days later at Nottingham's Rock City after their biggest show yet in the capital, at the Brixton Academy.
The tour looks like this:
November 2006
11 - Bournemouth, International Centre
12 - London, Brixton Academy
13 - Liverpool, University
14 - Glasgow, Barrowland
15 - Nottingham, Rock City
Tickets go on sale this week priced of ?17.50 for London and ?16 for all other dates.
