While I like the album, it's by far the worst of the My Chem albums. I still love it, but it's not their best. Conventional Weapons and Danger Days at least have better overall songs. Best songs in Bullets are "Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough for the Two of Us" and "Vampires Will Never Hurt You". Easy top 30 songs, but Danger Days has things like "Destroya" (top 20), "Bulletproof Heart" (top 20), "Planetary (GO!)" (top 20), "Na Na Na" (top 15), and "Save Yourself, I'll Hold them Back" (top 30). For Conventional Weapons "Boy Division" (top 10) and "The Light Behind Your Eyes" (in my opinion, their best work). Don't even get me started on Three Cheers or The Black Parade

It’s so funny to see someone listening to Bullets for the first time. I have a very strong, emotional connection to Bullets because I was 12 when I heard it and remember listening to it on repeat on my MP3 player on the bus. Vampires will always be my fucking jam. That and Sorrows. Drowning Lessons is one of my favorite songs. It’s hard to hear you talk about this album like this but I really appreciate you listening to it. And I completely understand your opinion, especially listening to Black Parade, Revenge, and DD first. This is their first album and it was literally just made to give them songs to tour with.

I’m the biggest apologist for Skylines and Turnstiles and what imma say is that if you knew what the song was about, you wouldn’t have dismissed it so soon. Skylines was the first song they wrote and it’s about 9/11. In fact, Gerard was there when it happened, he watched people falling from buildings and saw the towers up in smoke and flames that day. it was what inspired him to start a band and lead to the beginning of my chemical romance. The whole point of the song is to reach out to people who were affected by that tragedy. musically, the song isn’t the best or worst but it’s the reason/meaning behind it that really does it for me. hence the opening lyrics “you’re not in this alone, let me break this awkward silence”, “this broken city sky like butane on my skin” and “hello Angel tell me where are you” it definitely adds more emotion and meaning behind the song when you know what it’s about.

Captain Bozas But you’re making an album- if his mouth hurt (especially if you’re the singer) he probably should’ve waited for it to die out to record his vocals. When you’re making an album, you want as little flaws as possible (most of the time). So while having your mouth hurt is the reason his singing isn’t very good, it’s not a good excuse for the album vocal track to sound bad.

It's also the fact that they were still coming up so Gerard was trying new things with vocals. I personally excuse some of the flaws, considering that they didn't quite know what they were doing at the time. I kinda appreciate the trashy parts to an extend, as it makes it seem as if these kids put a lot of fucking effort to this, considering their low budget. I do get why someone would have a problem with the vocals tho. They're not the best they've been.

Yeah, you could totally tell that this was their first album. the second guitarist didn't join till late in the first ablum, only really helping with two songs, which is why the guitar riff's chemistry don't hit what they managed to hit in the following album. They got a major record signing while touring and got a whole studio and a great producer to help with how they evolved into making Three Cheers. But you can see the potential in how they evolve into Three Cheers and then Black Parade. also, to be fair about track 8, Gerard Way recorded it when having some tooth problems or something. was in pain during most of the recording.

i agree with you on some points here, especially in terms of the mixing, and we obviously have different opinions on song quality, identifiable structure and prominence of melody but there were a few comments that confused me -comparing headfirst for halos to this is how i disappear seemed odd. HFH is almost tongue in cheek in how major the song is, its constantly frantic, poppy and ironically cheesy(the claps at the end for example, which was done on purpose as stated by the band so they wouldnt be pigeon holed as a dark emo band), TIHID on the other hand is very dark and foreboding, not nearly as frantic and is very serious -the Early sunsets chord sequence is not the 'famous pop chords'. The song isnt as you sang I-vi-IV-V btw. Cancer follows the 'pop chord' formula of I-V-vi-IV, onyl changing the IV to a minor iv at points - I wouldnt describe the opening chord sequence of demolition lovers as simple given how unusual the progression is not liking a chord sequence and dismissing it as simple is not the same thing.

fuck u mean demolition lovers has simple chords? the verse chord progression goes i -- ivadd2 -- bVIb5 -- Vadd11 - V -. that is a pretty good way to mix up the i - iv - bVI - V - progression, which, i remind you, was used in The Sharpest Lives and This Is How I Disappear. iirc the chorus goes bVI -- bVII -- viidim -- i - bVII - which is not at all a commonly used progression, unless compared with the Andalusian Cadence, in which case it's basically that but backwards. House of Wolves uses the Andalusian Cadence. i mean thing is, Demolition Lovers isn't in either natural minor (Ieolian) nor harmonic minor (Ieolianmaj7,) but an 8-note scale which would be a mix of them or Ieolianaddmaj7. in addition, the song Drowning Lessons is also in Ionianadd#4 or a mix between Ionian and Lydian. Cubicles is also kind of a harmonic mess, with it's main progression being imin7 -- iv -- V -- vidim - bVII - imin7 -- iv -- II -- V - iv -, which uses 10 of the 12 notes by itself. it also changes key in the bridge, to major, with the progression I - V - ii --, which is not one i see commonly, at least. Romance is very harmonically complex- hell, it's in 9/8, but i do have to sleep so goodbye!

*inhale* I respect your taste in music. I understand how you dislike the repetitiveness of this album. This really requires an acquired taste in music that many never get. I like this album because it is an accurate representation of my mental status and I feel a connection to it. The end to Early Sunsets had me crying because of the pain I heard (whether emotional or physical I do not know). I can understand though how someone without such a connection to the music would dislike it.

"Dosn't have a problem with the C A F G verse in i dont love you" Though I'll admit that i dont love yous use of a certain scale changeing chord half a step to the right of the g chord makes for a more sonically interesting chorus then Early sunsets over monroeviles chorus Music nerd out of ten 🖒

I'll tell ya the truth - I like the demo version of Skylines better. It actually feels like it's got a better grip on melody, less artsy bullshit, and more emotion behind it. I'm sure someone down there mentioned it, but that was the song Gerard wrote after seeing the planes hit the towers, so that demo version captures that just furious confusion so much better because it was a much more instant reaction. Beyond that, I'm with you. I still vibe with Vampires and Honey though, if only because they have some fascinating videos hahaha

Its one thing to understand someone else's opinion, especially over such a polarising album, but he hates MCR as a band, he hates the community, and he went into this album wanting to hate it. Of course you're going to if your predisposed biased is leaning that way. It just sounded like he was playing it safe, hating on their most overlooked album and just comparing it to TBP as all mainstream rock platforms seem to

For a lot of reasons I can say it, but the lyrics, the way of the instrumental sounds, it’s amazing. For a lot of years, this it has been my favorite album, with my favorite song in the whole life in there: Drowning Lessons. Opinions are opinions, but to know how to comment, you have to understand what’s behind the topic (in this case, the album), and above all without falling into anachronism; this album it’s 19 years old lol

But to be fair this was from back when they recorded songs in a basement in New Jersey lmao. Can't really compare the sound to the studio quality of Black Parade. I agree it's no masterpiece, they said themselves they made this album just to have something to tour with. Again, from back when they were just highschool dropouts who played small local shows. It sounds like what it is, really. However they caught enough attention to get signed at a label and took off from there. I appreciate the album for that. Personal favorite is Our Lady of Sorrows, it's SICK on the rare occasion they play it live.

This album came out in 2002 and was released through a local record label however, that doesn't change that it hasn't aged well.

They really didn't know what they were doing but what's important is they kept going and took the effort to improve.

Ive waited literally 6 months for this video, and while i completely understand why you didn't like the album, Im a little disappointed that you didnt seem to expect the album to be as rough as it is. Thats pretty much the whole point, thats the whole reason its so polarising. This was their first piece of art, and it really showed just how great they could become, more so than any other band ive ever listened to in a similar situaution. They nailed their sound here, all it took was an actual producer to take them mainstream with Three Cheers. I dont know, maybe the album just sounds better to me for sentimental reasons.

I do understand your opinion and I'm glad you shared it with us Honestly don't agree with you but Its kinda an album you love or you hate. A little background on it, it was made 3 months after my chemical romance had formed, the singer Gerard Way was an alcoholic and drug addict and he was extremely insecure about his voice and was in an extremely bad place he had just witnessed 9-11 from right on the side walk next to the Twin towers. The whole reason this band was formed was because, of 9-11. Gerard had just got out of art school with no job and was an alcoholic and drug user he had completely rethought his life after 9-11 and wanted to do something. They were experimenting on the album and had just gotten together 3 months previous and had one guitar player and a lousy drummer Matt who later stole money from the band which led to him being kicked out and the drummer on the Black Parade was Bob Bryer. They only got the second guitarist Frank Iero after the recording of the album. They had Frank during three cheers to the end of the band's years in 2013. As for Mikey way Gerard Ways brother he was the bass player he didn't play bass before the band but because, the band didn't have one he learned so he really wasn't as talented as he is today. Mikey and Gerards Grandmother Elena as from the one and only Helena was really close to Gerard and was teaching Gerard to sing. She died in 2003-2004 He had started drinking even more and during 2004-2005 wanted to sober up. Elena had inspired Gerard to write Helena. I just wanted to share a little background on the band itself and why it turned out the way it did. Also though I don't agree with you I really enjoy your videos and want to ask if you could react to the some of the videos to their songs it gives context behind them. Wow this got really long sorry.
