My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade Is Dead! (Reprise, 2007)

My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade Is Dead!
"Cracked Emo Men Preach Death's ABCs!" --Daily Mail



Notes
  1. In a thoughtful Daily Mail article entitled "Why No Child Is Safe from the Sinister Cult of Emo," Tom Rawstorne explains that "the 'black parade' is a place where all emos believe they will go when they die." [Emphasis added, but probably unnecessary]
  2. Although the Daily Mail is not what we'd normally call a credible source, it's backed up in this case by the unimpeachable authority of an anagram, just as the clocks in Dali's "The Persistence of Memory" might be backed up by a sundial. Quo errat demonstrator, naysayers!

My Chemical Romance - Danger Days (Reprise, 2010)

My Chemical Romance - Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys
You ugly costumed jerks defile Sinatra's holy label. Move! Fetch Chairman!

Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys

Notes
  1. Frank Sinatra launched Reprise Records in 1960. His involvement with the label earned him the nickname "Chairman of the Board." 
  2. Other costumed jerks who have defiled Sinatra's holy label include Aki Aleon, Esquivel, the Electric Prunes, Tiny Tim, Jimi Hendrix, Jethro Tull and the Sande and Greene Fun-Time Band.
