Frank Iero: "The New Album Will Have A Vision"; MCR Builds Studio

Posted by Anna on February 2, 2012 at 5:35 PM Comments comments (1)

Frank recently told Noise11 that MCR's fifth album won't be "just be a collection of songs".


“It’s never going to be ‘Oh, we had these twelve songs so record it real quick and we’ll put them out," he explained. "I don’t think anyone can really do that these days anymore without some sort of thought or vision behind it."

 



Also, Ray mentioned that the band is in the process of building their own recording studio.


"Back in L.A. we just got a studio so we’re kind of building that out and basically trying to make a compound where we can be creative and be there whenever we want to be,” Ray told Noise11. “That’s the tough thing doing records in a cycle and you have three or four months where you have to write and record a record and sometimes that’s tough. You can take longer, but you always feel like there’s something over your head like a time constraint and now we’ll have our own place where we can go and make music 24 hours a day. It’s gonna be great!”


Noise11 also said that they will be posting a video interview this week. Click here to read the full article.

So perhaps we can expect a new album out this year?

The Kids From Yesterday Official Video

Posted by Anna on January 16, 2012 at 7:05 PM Comments comments (0)

The official video for The Kids From Yesterday has been released. This is the last video that will be released from Danger Days, so I guess the Killjoy storyline won't be continued. The video, to quote Frank is "footage [that the band collected] and [the band] literally stumbled upon an incredible video done by a talented young lady named Emily Eisemann. She had made a fan video, put it up on YouTube and it summed up what we had been trying so very hard to make, perfectly. So we gave her a call, put our videos together, and the rest, as they say, is history."

 

I think the video is really cool, having clips of the band spanning from now to the Three Cheers Era. You can watch the music video here:
