So I went on another session of putting Bang the Doldrums on repeat and read a post about it when I just suddenly realized something. This song reminds me of my relationship with my ex. We were best friends, then we dated, then once we parted we weren't such good friends anymore. I mean, we were still best friends but something was different. And the whole part during the bridge from "The tombstones were waiting; They were half engraved; They knew it was over; Just didn't know the date" fits perfectly because we realized that this wasn't gonna last I guess. And I didn't cast a spell over the west but dude I was literally praying to the God I don't even believe in to make them think of me the same way I think of them.
There's more shit I could explain but y'all do not care and I'm just shitposting so anyway thank you for coming to my TED talk :D
I disappeared off the face of the earth for a few days so sorry to y’all if you noticed my absence. Anyways I’m absolutely cooked for my finals. I’m too stupid to make it.
I don’t wanna make it, I just wanna *Totally fire guitar riffs*
Anyway uhh wish me luck. Or don’t. 🤷♀️

10k notes I'll come out to my parents
which one of u was going to tell me that tea tastes different if u put it in hot water?
MCR has been my favourite band for 20 years now. Maybe I’m weird, but I love their music to the point where I have trouble just putting on one of their songs casually or placing one of their songs on a playlist with multiple artists. I like to listen to their albums in full, or at least have a rotation going specifically of just their vast and varied music. I adore just about all music, and they’re the only artist I do this with.
When I first fell in love with MCR—and I fell for them hard—they were a group of five: Gerard, Frank, Ray, Mikey, and Bob. 14-year-old me was absolutely crazy about all of them. I thought they were the coolest people in music, and any small piece of legit information about any of them got me so excited.
Before social media was standard, everything I learned about them I learned from interviews and performance footage. I’ve always remembered Bob as that silly and immensely talented blond guy in the group who was the only one not from New Jersey (Chicago). They did so many group interviews together, and behind-the-scenes music video specials for Fuse, and Bob was always smiling and laughing with the rest of them. They were clearly a family of many talents, and Bob got to finally showcase what he was capable of on The Black Parade.
There is no understating how memorable and standout the drums are on The Black Parade. I don’t know the technical terminology and I’m definitely not a music student, but the drums on that album hit me in the heart, especially on Welcome to the Black Parade. Bob clearly knew what he was doing, loved what he was doing, and as far as the rest of us know, the only reason he wasn’t with My Chemical Romance to the end was because of issues with his wrists.
I loved Bob’s work so much, I went to the trouble of learning which songs on Danger Days had kept his contributions; not surprisingly, they were all my favourites on the album (Na Na Na, Bulletproof Heart, The Only Hope for Me is You, Party Poison, and Save Yourself, I’ll Hold Them Back (my number one fav from DD)). I didn’t hear Conventional Weapons until after they’d broken up completely, but again every song was a banger and again Bob’s work was excellent.
I saw them live twice when Bob was in the band, but the only time I saw all five of them together on stage was in December 2005 (during their TBP tour, at least one of the band members was taking a break for health reasons when I saw them, but I don’t remember who). I’ll never forget how excited I was that first time I saw them, and I’ll never forget how much love I had for all five of them.
I’m not going to speculate about what happened. This is meant to be a respectful message about how much Bob meant to me as a fan during the height of MCR’s career. I’m writing all this knowing as much as the rest of the fan base about his passing, which isn’t much. I read that disgusting announcement by TMZ, same as all of you, and it made me so angry.
Within the first hour of the announcement of his passing, there were already (presumably AI-generated) compilation videos of Bob on YouTube. This is the only reason I’m not bothering to put a video together myself, I can’t compete with robots, so instead I’m here to say that Bob Bryar was and always will be one of the best drummers of the 2000s era of music, and whether you want him to be or not, he is iconic.
I was so sad when I heard he wasn’t in the band anymore, and I’m sad now. He deserved so much better, at the very least he deserved love and support, as we all do.
Rest In Peace Bob.
isn’t it crazy that the only member of mcr we haven’t heard moan like their life depended on it into a microphone blasting at insanity inducing decibels is mikey. i just want you all to know that were that to happen it would be the most life-defining, pussy-quaking, dick-shaking, ass-vibrating moan we’ve ever heard. why do you think that trail of broken hearted men he left in the 2000’s still follow him around like puppy dogs begging and whining at his heels. he’s too powerful that’s why he’s not allowed to have a mic and why they had to bury vseu.
reblog this if you're okay with booping spams please !!
This is usually accompanied by me lying on my bed, rolling around and screaming, "PLEASE GEE I WOULD LOVE TO RUN AWAY 😭"
"If you stay, I would even wait all night
Well, or until my heart explodes
How long until we
Find our way in the dark and out of harm?
You can run away with me anytime you want
Or you can write it on your arm
You can run away with me anytime you want."
Summertime by My Chemical Romance (Danger Days, 2010)
This song makes me want to explode. I love it so much.
