My Chemical Romance emerged from New Jersey in the aftermath of the 9/11 atrocity to become the standard-bearers for a new fusion of punk, glam, and emo. MCR achieved global prominence in 2006 with the release of their platinum-selling album Welcome to the Black Parade.Extensive touring has added to their worldwide fan base with incendiary sold-out live shows. In this provocative biography, Reinhardt Haydn presents a comprehensive profile of the band, from its hardscrabble start to its rocky upward climb to its present superstar status.
