Ratings:

Romance - 10/10, absolutely beautiful guitar with radio static, need I say more?

Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Two Of Us - 9/10

Vampires Will Never Hurt You - 10/10 wooo lord I want a vampire to get ME (⋟﹏⋞), the whole band put their PUSSYS into this

Drowning Lessons - 10/10 A THOUSAND BODIES PILED UP I NEVER THOUGHT WOULD BE ENOUGH TO LET YOU KNOWN EHJUSTB WAHT I BEEN THINKINGKMGHBSJKGFDHJ, NEEED I SAY MORE???????

Our Lady Of Sorrows - 10/10 

Headfirst For Halos - 9/10 fun little fact about myself, for the LONGEST TIME when he sings “think happy thought” at the end, I thought he was saying “happy birthday” LMAOOO

Skylines And Turnstiles - 10/10

Early Sunsets Over Monroeville - 10/10 this song is so lovely and floaty, I adore it and it makes me think of my love. I have cried to this song many-a-times thinking about lose (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ 10/10 10/10 10/10 I can’t say just how much I love this song.

This Is The Best Day Ever - 9/10

Cubicles - 10/10

Demolition Lovers - 10/10 I could literally do a line by line analysis on this song and how much I adore it. This song, in my opinion, is one of the greatest songs ever written. And I will DIE on that hill. This song makes you want to smoke a blunt and turn your LED lights on slow fade and then writhe around on a fluffy rug IDEK what that means but IYKYK!!!!! The storytelling on this album and in this song in particular is so amazing. Some people say the G note is triggering for them, but for me it is the beginning guitar riff of Demolition Lovers. AMEN


OVERALL RATING: 10/10 !!!!

About The Album:

Bullets was the debut album for My Chemical Romance, recorded in New Windsor, New York. The album's story revolves around what could be two lovers or multiple couples who are running from vampires and enemies in the desert and eventually are killed. When the album released the band offered free copies of the album thru PureVolume and MySpace!!

About The Band:

My Chemical Romance, MCR, or My Chem (if you did not already know T-T) is an American punk band from Newark, New Jersey. The band CURRENTLY consists of the lovely Gerard Way, Ray Toro, Frank Iero, and Mikey Way. Previous band members include Matt Pelissier, James Dewees, and Bob Bryar. Touring musicians also include Pete Parada, Matt Cortez, Tucker Rule, Todd Price, Michael Pedicone, Jarrod Alexander, and Jamie Muhoberac. Gerard Way actually horrificaly witnessed the 9/11 attacks on the world trade center, which is actually what inspired him to want to start a band. -Insert Hasan Piker quote here-  They are one of, if not THE most amazing and influential bands from the early 2000's. The band shook us all to our cores on March 22, 2013 when they posted on their website the band was breaking up. Then in 2019, they announced a reunion tour- WHICH WAS POSTPONED until 2022 T-T! 


My Opinons:

OBVIOUSLY I AM BIASED. This is my favorite album of all time, and if any album deserves a 10/10, it's Bullets. Gerard’s voice on this album is just SO INSANE. MCR means a lot to me and is in fact my #1 favorite band of all time. I am actually one of the lucky individuals who got to see them for their reunion tour (because if I couldn't I would have committed WAR CRIMES in minecraft <3) My boyf, his bro, one of their friends, and I saw them in Nashville right around my birthday!! I cried like 3 times and it was an unreal experience. Even to this day when I hear a song they preformed at the show I feel happiness surge thru my body like I can't believe I got that experience! A core memory for sure. This album helped me so much thru many times of my life. My favorite memories of this album is being in the car with my best friend SK, with the windows rolled down and playing it on full blast otw to get rillos, or fast food, just singing the album from start to finish everywhere we went. Also an amazing album to writhe around on the floor to when you're going thru something.

I LISTENED TO IT. OHMYGODDDDD!!!! I genuinely think it's their best album, and is certainly my new favorite. It's a lot heavier than a lot of their later cuts, but that honestly makes it better to me because I LOVE heavy music. My favorite track was "Our Lady Of Sorrows", but even the ones I liked the least, I didn't hate. And I'm picky about songs. This was just an AMAZING fucking album. Holy shit!! That ending was STRONG. I literally almost cried at times. 9.8/10 album, genuinely one of my favorites (maybe of all time???)

oh HECK YEAH!!! I am so glad you listened and AMEN, I am so glad we can all share such an amazing piece of art. I also love it because it's heavier than their latter albums as well (ノ≧∀≦)ノ. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I WHOLE HEARTEDLY AGREE WITH THIS REVIEW!1

MCR is honestly one of the best emo/post-punk bands out there and this was such a good start to their career

I have never been able to find a band that adds up to what MCR is. I also love Staind and Three Days Grace, sooo many other bands, but they just will never compare.

MCR is just so....iconic..... every emo from the early 2000s to now knows them and considers them a staple emo band

i just adore them sm
