Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge [2LP]
My Chemical Romance - Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge [2LP]
Released in 2004, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge was the record that pushed My Chemical Romance from the New Jersey basement scene onto the world stage. A dark, theatrical concept album about love, death and vengeance, it gave the band its signature anthems: "Helena," "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" and "The Ghost Of You". It went on to define a generation of emo and post-hardcore.
This deluxe edition presents the album newly remixed by Rich Costey, giving the songs fresh punch and clarity. It also adds four live bonus tracks recorded in London for BBC Radio 1's "The Lock Up" on January 23, 2005. Three of those performances were previously unreleased. The fourth, "You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison," first appeared as a B-side on the limited UK CD single of "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)."
The set is pressed on Silver & Black Corona vinyl as a 3-sided 2LP, with an etching on side D. It comes in a matte jacket with glossy lettering and highlights, die-cut white inner sleeves, and a fold-out insert with the original album artwork and lyrics.
