My Chemical Romance Announced For iTunes Festival & Tickets

My Chemical Romance have been confirmed to play this year’s iTunes Festival at London’s prestigious Roundhouse venue on July 9th.

In addition, they will also play Oxegen and T in the Park on July 8th and 10th respectively.
 
My Chemical Romance’s current single ‘Bulletproof Heart’ is taken from their recent widely-acclaimed album ‘Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.’ It started life as a straightforward song from the album’s early sessions called ‘Trans Am’ which was ripped apart then tied to a rocket, re-emerging from the sci-fi ether as the worldbeating ‘Bulletproof Heart.’ The high octane video for the track was filmed during the band’s incendiary performance for MTV World Stage that was held at Valencia’s Ciudad de las Artes y las Cienciasarena venue in March before an audience of 30,000 My Chemical Romance devotees.
 
‘Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys’ is the album My Chemical Romance have been building towards their entire, nearly decade long career. From soaring sentiment (‘The Only Hope for Me is You’) to bare-knuckled brawling in the streets (‘DESTROYA’) it defies lazy labels and demolishes expectations. Beholden to no scene, credo or code it’s a rock ’n’ roll album from the future aimed directly at the dead-hearted present.

“Next year it’ll be ten years since we’ve been together,” says guitarist Frank Iero. “That’s a long time to stay in one shade. And I think if you’ve been a fan of our band for a long time then you need these different feelings in your life, these different emotions to come through. And I know that because it’s what we need right now.”
