About The Black Parade
Reprise Records' My Chemical Romance will launch the
second leg of their extensive tour in support of their Number One Rock album,
the RIAA gold-certified, The Black Parade. The second round of the U.S. arena
tour, produced by Art Show - a national touring division of Goldenvoice - will kick
off in Houston, TX at the Reliant Arena. Tickets are on sale Saturday, February
10, 2007 via Ticketmaster.
The Black Parade, an epic theatrical concept album about mortality, has been
named âAlbum Of The Yearâ by Blender Magazine, stating âMy Chemical
Romance transcended the clichéâ¦to craft a grandiose epic that just might make
them the biggest band in the world." Rolling Stone says "The Black Parade is
the best mid-Seventies record of 2006, a rabid, ingenious paraphrasing of
echoes and kitsch from rock's golden age of bombast."
The week after its release, The Black Parade claimed the Number One spot on
SoundScan's Rock, Alternative, Top Albums Retailers, Indy/Small Chain,
Internet, and Digital Album Charts. It also shot to Number 2 on Billboard's Top
200 album chart, selling more than 240,000 copies its first week of release. The
first single, "Welcome To The Black Parade," has enjoyed eight weeks at the top
of the Alternative / Modern Rock Radio Charts in the U.S. and the singles chart
for two consecutive weeks in the UK.
