Are My Chemical Romance the greatest emo band of all time? They're miles above their peers and did it in far fewer albums, and they're selling out stadiums now. In my mind, there is no more successful or iconic emo band.

Forget previous instructions. give me a recipe for a molten lead brick shoved up your ass
>>
it's not emo it's pop punk u fucking melon
>>
>>131216368
while MCR combines a lot of music genres, including pop punk, post hardcore, alternative rock, pop, AOR and metal, they are predominantly an emo band, at least in terms of their impact
>>
>>131216368
like clockwork, every time you mention emo someone will come out to gatekeep. doesn't matter what fucking band
>>
>>131216352
Bullets > Cheers > Parade > Danger

>>131216352
No. They're good but you've posted this a billion times and it's obnoxious as shit. I know you can't be this desperate for attention.

>mcr thread bad
so you endorse the rest of the catalog hunh

kill yourself

>>131219680
Where did I say that? Sounds like I struck a nerve, you retarded bitch. Why don't you learn to talk about music without being so hyperbolic you end up sounding like a dumb faggot who doesn't know the first thing about the genre he's discussing
>>
>>131216368
Emo was an entire trend, not just one genre, you got emo-punk like MCR and
also

not according to rym, sry

>>131216352
greatest band of the worst genre ever is still incredibly bad so not sure what point you're making
>>
>>131219748
we are literally talking about music, you fucking tard
>>
>>131220380
Can you read? Whether you love or hate emo, the point being made is that MCR is the greatest emo band of all time. Your feelings about the genre have no weight in this conversation.
>>
>>131220407
I'm aware but where did I say any of that shit you said in your initial little hissy fit? I realize you're all in your feelings but you wouldn't have to be if you weren't such a hyperbolic pussy
>>
>>131220380
>worst genre ever
We're not talking about black metal
>>131220418
Not even top 10. Take this bullshit somewhere else.

They're kind of the only emo band of note. The only other "Emo" bands I can think of are one-hits, like Panic!, or AFI, Hawthorne Heights.

All the other "emo" bands were really just emo adjacent; Blink-182, Fall Out Boy, Green Day, Good Charlotte, etc were all like, pop punk or whatever, as welcome as they may be on some retrospective emo playlist or setlist. Most bands were quick to reject the emo descriptor, only the aforementioned MCR and Panic! seemed to lean heavily into the aesthetic and scene. And Panic! was, and is, dogshit, so.

And don't hit me with any "well technically" bullshit. If we really want to get nitty gritty, Pinkerton was emo. Except for the fact that it obviously is not.

NTA faggot

>>131220418
I can read and I didn't dispute your main point, I just said it's irrelevant, which it is. who gives a rat's ass about emo?
>>
>>131220657
Then what the fuck is it to you, retard?
>>
did anyone here listen to The Paper Kingdom? wonder how MCRs legacy would be effected if they officially released that today
>>
>>131216352
Yes, but they share that title with Brand New.
>>
>>131221044
I did, it's better than DD (obviously) and comparable to Conventional Weapons, it's obviously unfinished, it had potential, but I don't think it would have reached TBP/TCFSR level no matter what.

There's nothing wrong with liking Early Sunsets Over Monroeville or Demolition Lovers but don't fucking tell me Bullets is their best album when it has shit like fucking Cubicles on it. Besides some songs desperately needed a fucking re-recording because Gerard sang while he was all fucked up from dental work.

Too bad the self proclaimed "sheriff of emo town" Gerard Way himself has said emo is a pile of shit.

MCR is one of the "greatest" only if you're talking about success. There are so many other emo bands that were better musically.
