Mikey's bass , while not audible much through this album (a staple of the genre) plays along fine and keeps up with the drums nicely.

In a 2022 retrospective, The Guardian described the backlash against the band and emo music as a " moral panic". It was originally thought to be titled The Rise and Fall of My Chemical Romance (in reference to The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars by David Bowie), but in an interview with Kerrang!

Way suffered torn ligaments in his ankle, and Bryar suffered third-degree burns on his hands and legs.

The first recording sessions were undertaken in Pelissier's attic, where the songs "Our Lady of Sorrows" and "Cubicles" were recorded. The success of the band's previous albums was eclipsed by that of their 2006 rock opera concept album, The Black Parade.

My Chemical Romance went on to win the award for Best International Band at the 2007 NME Awards, and Gerard Way also won the Hero of the Year award.

The tour was announced on May 23, 2011 when both bands gathered at the Rainbow Bar and Grill in West Hollywood.
