Everyone seems to have a band that really provoked your love of music, and for me that band - gulp - is My Chemical Romance. I am aware of the stigmas, the opinions, the tags that go along with them, yet I'm not alone in this sentiment. So as today - July 23rd 2012 - marks the 10th anniversary of their debut record 'I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love', I thought it seemed the best time to ramble aimlessly about what made them so important and the transformations they've undergone in the last ten years. If anyone cares about my opinion...

In a year of stunning comeback albums from some of rock's biggest names, The Cult's hard hitting 'Choice Of Weapon' album is one of the very best. Landing a place in the UK Top 20 and receiving a rapturous critical reception, it seems frontman Ian Astbury's U-turn after vowing not to release any more albums (“the format is dead” - he claimed) has been an exceptionally smart volte face. Furthermore, the decision to team up once again with Bob Rock, the producer of their late 80's commercial juggernaut-in-album-form 'Sonic Temple', has reaped the richest of rewards on a huge sounding record for which the clichéd 'return to form' tag is a monolithic understatement.

'Greatest Hits' compilations aren't often very exciting. It usually signals the end of a band's career, a pitiful attempt at making some money for a musical legend who hasn't done so much of late or it's just something to fill the notable lack in new music. However, with Slipknot's 'Antennas To Hell', this is not the case. While the general rule of no new music applies, this succinctly summarises the band's fantastic career up to the present point, luring the listener through a history of one of metal's long-standing icons.
