In honor of its twentieth anniversary and the band’s ongoing “Long Live The Black Parade” World Tour, My Chemical Romance has announced that they will be releasing a twentieth anniversary edition of their iconic album The Black Parade.

Several vinyl, CD, and cassette tape variants of the album are now available for pre-order, and the track list includes the original album, three live performances from the 2007 The Black Parade World Tour, and three B-sides “Heaven Help Us”, “Kill All Your Friends”, and “My Way Home Is Through You”. The live performance tracks include “Someone Out There Loves You”, a song long referred to by fans as “Stay”, performed on the tour but never officially recorded. For the first time ever, all of these songs will be available in one collection.

A message on the band’s website reads as follows:

“Twenty years ago, we wrote what would become “The Black Parade”, our third record and the follow up to “Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge”.

At the time, we could never have imagined what the record would mean for the band. All we knew is that we had made something crazy, and something we couldn’t wait to get it out into the world.

Today, twenty years on, we celebrate its release.

For the first time, we have included everything we finished during those sessions in a single collection.

As importantly, we asked James Jean to revisit the world of The Black Parade and create three new pieces of art. What he has crafted is a beautiful collection of a few iconic characters from the record during that era. James is truly a one-of-kind-artist, and so important to how this record was presented to the world. We are extremely grateful for meeting him all those years ago, and agreeing now to make something new.

Our hope is that you enjoy this collection of music and illustrations as much as we do, because we wanted to honor how timeless and enduring you’ve allowed it to be.

Thank you for marching with us.

To the death!

MCR”
