10 Reasons Why My Chemical Romance Desperately Need To Reform
7. Their Solo Stuff Is Good, But It's No MCR
Thus far there's been a decent amount of solo material from the ex-members of MCR. Gerard released a great solo album, Hesitant Alien, which is a racous blend of Brit-Pop and fuzzy guitar. Its refreshingly un-MCR (thered be nothing more disappointing than hearing a lukewarm, watered down version of the bands music) and has seen moderate critical success. Frank has released Stomachaches under FrnkIero AndThe Cellabration, an album much nearer to his other solo stuff (think screaming lots of screaming) than MCRs newer, more tuneful sound. Mikey Gerards brother is part of Electric Century, an electronic rock duo that have released several singles and an EP. And Ray is hard at work on his debut solo record, having finished most of the recording and released a few dreamy teasers. As it stands, the boys have had a few years recording and performing solo material.
