I'm sticking my neck out here, but I have completely fallen for this band. Too many people hate them because they are just some Emo band. But, I have been listening to their latest album seems like nonstop, Danger Days.
I've liked them since Helena and I'm Not Okay, and I thought The Black Parade was a great themed album with far more highs than lows.
Danger Days also is a themed album, but loosely so. The theme is some sort of post-apocalyptic existence on deserted highways (kind of). Many of the songs are awesome:
SING obviously has gotten good exposure
Planetary (GO!) should be on most people's gym iPods. It's a great energy song.
Summertime is a wonderfully mature longing but engaging song. I absolutely love it. "You can run away with me... any time you like."
Sure, there's not much profound here, but the theme creeps up and holds you. There are so few albums that I like to play all of the way through, but this is one of them. It's a great driving album, too (maybe obviously).
There, FWIW.
(Oh, and they were incredible live in April at First Ave.)
