Aw man, wouldn't it be awesome if the Protomen had that kind of budget?!

It is, since yesterday, apparently. Can't remember how I found out, usually I'm the last one to know about such things (even with bads I love - I was shocked to find out the new Black Angels album has been out for a while now).

The Black Parade has a couple of fantastic songs, though (=all the ones that don't sound like Blink 192&Co). And I respect G. Way as fellow geek, even though I find the Umbrella Academy storylines quite depressing. Then again, the Protomen storyline isn't all sunshine and butterflies either.

fuckin love this new mcr shit

I have trouble liking MCR's music. I used to really enjoy their old stuff but I recently was listening to some of it and it just annoyed me. Though I do have a few favorites that I do still enjoy.

As for the new stuff, I do enjoy "Na Na Na" but most of it is a really big hit or miss with me.

I guess my relationship with MCR is "complicated".

It's complicated with me as well. I love, love, love 6 1/2 of their songs, and the rest is just generic, uninteresting stuff.
Not sure on the new one yet - I've got "Na Na Na" stuck in my head, but that's not necessarily a good thing. The album definitely didn't hook me right away like The Black Parade did.

(I also like their visual style, and a certain lead singer of theirs is quite the eye candy, but that's not enough to make me like a band in any case)

With that video. The first minute really reminded with me (except a car) of Joe in the Fall. You know, just busting through looking cool with the alarms raised.

And I'm sure in the van at the end it's supposed to be the protomen. I mean, blue helmet. Older man with badass bandanna. Comon! It's gotta be a shoutout...

And with MCRs music. I'm not sure. I like their sound, but I can't visibly like them to stay with any part of my society. THey sound nice, but I'm not going out to buy their albums.
