My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Manner has hinted that the band hopes to make a brand new album — its first in additional than 15 years — in the course of the closing night time of their Black Parade tour in San Antonio on Saturday (Sept. 12).
Addressing the group on the Alamodome, Manner framed the prospect as a hope somewhat than a agency plan.
“Simply know that, like, we’ve type of actually all the time wished to make one other file, so we hope that life permits us to do this,” he stated. “Trigger you guys, actually, you guys stored us alive so lengthy. You guys deserve one other file. I don’t know when it’ll be. But it surely’ll be superior.”
The remarks cease nicely wanting an official announcement — Manner named no title, timeline or launch date — however they characterize the band’s most direct public acknowledgment of a possible fifth studio album since its 2019 reunion. A brand new file can be My Chemical Romance’s first full-length since 2010’s Hazard Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.
Since reforming, the band has launched only one standalone single, 2022’s “The Foundations of Decay,” and has in any other case targeted on touring, together with the present run celebrating the Twentieth anniversary of The Black Parade.
The feedback got here because the band capped a massively profitable anniversary marketing campaign. My Chemical Romance have been performing their 2006 magnum opus in full all through the tour, which has since been prolonged into a worldwide stadium run billed as The Black Parade 2026, with dates throughout North America, the U.Okay. and Europe. The band lately introduced a Twentieth-anniversary reissue of the album, due in October.
Launched in 2006, The Black Parade stays the band’s industrial and cultural peak. The album was licensed four-times platinum within the U.S. and topped Billboard’s High Rock Albums chart, whereas its lead single “Welcome to the Black Parade” — a No. 9 hit on the Billboard Scorching 100 — has been licensed five-times platinum and endures as one of many defining rock anthems of its period.
