10 Clues My Chemical Romance Are Gearing Up To Release A New Album

10. Frank Iero Seems To Have Let The Secret Slip

My Chemical Romance guitarist Frank Iero has never been known for being good at keeping secrets. Before the band’s reunion was announced in late 2019, Iero came close to cracking under pressure any time interviewers would ask him about the band, and he has even since revealed that he dropped a couple of hints in interviews alluding to MCR’s reunion.

In a recent rundown with Premier Guitar, though, Iero seems to have let slip something bigger. Showing off a pedalboard, the guitarist announced he used the equipment for “two Thursday live streams … and a couple of M-some recording stuff.” He might have been quick to realise his mistake, but Iero seems to have let slip that he was working on some new MCR recordings before biting back his words.

Eagle-eared My Chemical Romance fans picked up on another potential slip-up. Frank says that he used a set-up while working with The Black Parade and Danger Days producer Rob Cavallo on “the last three My Chem records”, before correcting himself to say “or the last two My Chem records, rather”. (MCR's second record Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge was produced by Howard Benson, while the scrapped Conventional Weapons sessions were produced by Brendan O'Brien before the band switched back to Cavallo for Danger Days.)

This may be a simple mistake, but it’s just as likely that Frank has let a big secret slip.
