MCR QUOTES Gerard MCR QUOTES Gerard Way "If you don't go to high school you will definitely go to jail." "I'd rather be a creature of the night than an old dude." "So many people treat you like you're a kid so you might as well act like one and throw your television out of the hotel window." "Be Yourself, Don't take anyone's shit and never let them take you alive..." "So how was Christmas for you guys? Did you all get lots of nice black t-shirts?" "If you're gonna buy me a present, don't spend more than twenty five bucks, you'll get a blowjob anyway." "Surrounding myself with fans makes me feel like I'm not going through it alone." "The Devil got landed with a shitty job, he has to deal with assholes everyday, he's probably bored as hell." "When I was writing it, I was remembering how hard it was to be a 16-year-old in high school. I always wanted to be an artist, so I was this loner kid who just got drunk all the time. I only had one real friend. There was a girl I really liked, and she ended up taking really sleazy photographs with her boyfriend, and that really crushed me, I was just swimming in this pit of despair, jealousy and alcoholism." "It erases everything I hate about myself. Nothing can hurt me. I feel completely invincible. I feel like everyone else on that stage is invincible and we're capable of anything. There's no stopping us." "I'd enjoy it if a guy grabbed my ass. I guess it all depends on how he grabbed it, too." "When you are kissing a guy with a beard, it's different." "There's such a lack of sex in music" "It takes me a while to tell stories. I think it's because I was drunk for three years" "I was this weird loner kid who got drunk by himself all the time." (talking about high school) "I have a nihilistic attitude so it's like, the new gay... it's popular." (Gerard on why we should give a damn about MCR) "Look at me, with my pretty bracelet and tiara... I'm a fuckin' princess!" "Were not a festival band, playing during the day was something we had to get over, I was like uhh this sun stuff kind of sucks" "When we first started out I had a really big issue and a lot of my loved ones had a really big issue with the fact that I was totally in pain up there and there was a time when I tried to hurt myself off stage, but I got over that. Like, you should never want to hurt yourself. You should love yourself. Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself and become a new person and I think that that is going to be a lot of what the next record is about, not to plug it or anything. Like, it's going to talk about dying and coming back to become what you totally want to become. We are all becoming what we want to become." "What I Like about The Sims is that I don't have a normal life at all, so I play this game where these people have these really boring, mundane lives. It's fun. My Sims family is called the Cholly family. I don't know why I picked that name; it's kind of random. The teenage daughter is my favourite, because I just had her go through this Goth phase. She's really kind of nerdy and she just became a concert violinist, which is pretty huge for the family. And she got into private school. But she started wearing black lipstick and she dyed her hair purple. It's pretty huge." "I went to school in drag, in art school and my day was completely different because everybody thought I was a chick. You should see me as a chick. So I went as a girl, as like an experiment and it worked really well and everyone was really nice to me but I couldn't talk obviously...you know train conductors were really cool to me on my commute...HA! I looked hot as a chick!" "Craziest thing that ever happened to me was being attacked by a black bird. It pecked the shit out of my head. We were at this hotel called The Phoenix in San Francisco. We were leaving to go to a show the next morning and the bird just fuckin' attacked my head. And the next day Slipknot were there, they were coming in as we were leaving, and they got attacked by birds too." "Yeah, obviously we use vampires as a metaphor for something else, something deeper than just the supernatural. But there's just something about the bloodsucking walking dead, that can say so much to people. There are really so many people trying to get control over you on a daily basis and steal your soul in some way, take a part of you..." "Um, lots of people grab my ass. I'm actually starting to get this thing now where people grab my package. That actually happened once in Boston, it usually doesn't happen. We went over to England and it happened at almost every show. I don't really enjoy any kind of invasion of privacy like that I guess. Grabbing my package is obviously a total invasion of privacy I'm not into that at all." "That's what happens when you're all borderline psychotic and therein lies the beauty of this band - our duality. There's a duality to each band member too. There's a desire to have this constant conflict. If we write a write a song and it turns out really poppy, we have to make the lyrics really fucked up. There's psychosis to everything we do for sure. One day we're probably gonna write this number one pop tune that will be about a massacre!" "If for one minute you think you're better than a sixteen year old girl in a Green Day t-shirt, you are sorely mistaken. Remember the first time you went to a show and saw your favorite band. You wore their shirt, and sang every word. You didn't know anything about scene politics, haircuts, or what was cool. All you knew was that this music made you feel different from anyone you shared a locker with. Someone finally understood you. This is what music is about." Frank Iero "This is a band that will save your life." "I would date Gerard." "I can't imagine any other bands having better kids than ours, and if they do at least I know our kids can beat up their kids." "I'm totally f-in' bummed about the 'Ghost of You' leak. If you see a site with a link to the video, please don't watch it. Don't send it out. Don't look at screencaps. It's NOT FINISHED YET!" "If I revealed my secret identity, the world would go to shit." Camera Man: "Can't handle with that." Frank: "Hmmm, you need to a open mind my friend." "Oh, one time we got held hostage!” "We've mutilated, killed and disemboweled rock 'n' roll clichés!” "My biggest addictions have been chocolate cake, mashed potatoes, and butter sandwiches.” "I burn everything and call it Cajun.” "Really I don't know anything other than Jersey. I like the dirtiness of it. Now I'm getting to see the world, and it's great, but it's not better than Jersey" Camera man: "Did you read the new Ellen Degeneres book?" Frank: "Yeah." Camera man: "What did you think?" Frank: "It made me a fucking lesbian!" “Love what you do and who you truly are. Be willing to die for it. If you are true to yourself, you can never go wrong.” Interviewer: (to Gerard) How do you feel about turning thirty this year? Frank: (bursts out laughing) Interviewer: That was from someone who was twenty-nine. Gerard: Erm, let me see… I’m actually excited about it, um, I’ll tell you why, because I always see getting older as like, learning, um, you know. Thirty’s not old. Thirty’s like the new twenty. Frank: Yeah, for trees. My grandma made me this batman costume, it was dope!" -Gerard way 'Hey girls, you're beautiful. Whether you're a size 32 or a size 18. As long as you're a good person. As long as you respect others and yourself. Don't listen to those fashion magazines. Hey girls, you're beautiful' - Gerard Way. 'My biggest addictions have been chocolate cake, mashed potatoes, and butter sandwiches.' - Frank Iero I want to be a vampire. They're the coolest monsters. -Gerard Way Heroes are ordinary people who make themselves extraordinary. - Gerard Way I could eat my body weight in sushi! - Mikey Way So many people treat you like you're a kid so you might as well act like one and throw your television out of the window. - Gerard Way Suicide is a serious thing. And if you know anyone who is suicidal, you need to get them help. No one should be in pain. Everyone should love themselves. Like I love you all.

  • RIGHTS CLAIMS THROUGH MUSIC a Study on Collective Identity and Social Movements
    RIGHTS CLAIMS THROUGH MUSIC A study on collective identity and social movements Dzeneta Sadikovic Department of Global and Political Studies Human Rights III (MR106S) Bachelor thesis, 15hp 15 ETC, Fall/2019 Supervisor: Dimosthenis Chatzoglakis Abstract This study is an analysis of musical lyrics which express oppression and discrimination of the African American community and encourage potential action for individuals to make a claim on their rights. This analysis will be done methodologically as a content analysis. Song texts are examined in the context of oppression and discrimination and how they relate to social movements. This study will examine different social movements occurring during a timeline stretching from the era of slavery to present day, and how music gives frame to collective identities as well as potential action. The material consisting of song lyrics will be theoretically approached from different sociological and musicological perspectives. This study aims to examine what interpretative frame for social change is offered by music. Conclusively, this study will show that music functions as an informative tool which can spread awareness and encourage people to pressure authorities and make a claim on their Human Rights.

  • It's Not a Fashion Statement
    Gielis /1 MASTER THESIS NORTH AMERICAN STUDIES IT’S NOT A FASHION STATEMENT. AN EXPLORATION OF MASCULINITY AND FEMININITY IN CONTEMPORARY EMO MUSIC. Name of student: Claudia Gielis MA Thesis Advisor: Dr. M. Roza MA Thesis 2nd reader: Prof. Dr. F. Mehring Gielis /2 ENGELSE TAAL EN CULTUUR Teacher who will receive this document: Dr. M. Roza and Prof. Dr. F. Mehring Title of document: It’s Not a Fashion Statement. An exploration of Masculinity and Femininity in Contemporary Emo Music. Name of course: MA Thesis North American Studies Date of submission: 15 August 2018 The work submitted here is the sole responsibility of the undersigned, who has neither committed plagiarism nor colluded in its production. Signed Name of student: Claudia Gielis Gielis /3 Abstract Masculinity and femininity can be performed in many ways. The emo genre explores a variety of ways in which gender can be performed. Theories on gender, masculinity and femininity will be used to analyze both the lyrics and the music videos of these two bands, indicating how they perform gender lyrically and visually. Likewise a short introduction on emo music will be given, to gain a better understanding of the genre and the subculture. It will become clear that the emo subculture allows for men and women to explore their own identity. This is reflected in the music associated to the emo genre as well as their visual representation in their music videos. This essay will explore how both a male fronted band, My Chemical Romance, and a female fronted band, Paramore, perform gender. All studio albums and official music videos will be used to investigate how they have performed gender throughout their career.

Yesterday, FRANK IERO and the PATIENCE teamed up with Alternative Press to premiere “No Fun Club,” their new track from the EP.

  • Com As Mãos Sujas De Sangue: Música, Emoções E Romantismos Raphael Bispo 1
    Com as mãos sujas de sangue: música, emoções e romantismos Raphael Bispo 1 Resumo O presente artigo tem como proposta analisar as canções produzidas por bandas de rock classificadas de “emo” na atualidade. Resgatando contrastivamente o imaginário romântico do século XVIII – que tem no livro Os sofrimentos do Jovem Werther, de Johann Wolfgang Goethe, uma de suas melhores elaborações –, busca- se compreender mais precisamente as diferentes estratégias e inflexões no processo histórico de elaboração de uma subjetividade interiorizada e autonomizada, típica da modernidade ocidental, tendo como base duas experiências artísticas distintas. Assim, apontando as semelhanças, diferenças e especificidades existentes entre dois momentos de registros estéticos de nossa cultura (a literatura romântica “clássica” de Goethe e a música emo da banda My Chemical Romance), além de se constatar a permanência de uma espécie de “sombra romântica” (DUARTE, 2004) nas artes de hoje, o artigo procura também jogar luz sobre as configurações da vida íntima no Ocidente moderno, mais precisamente sobre como têm operado historicamente nossas experiências amorosas, a partir de narrativas sobre o amor e o self formuladas em momentos históricos específicos. Palavras-chave: emo, amor, romantismo, antropologia das emoções. 1 Doutor em Antropologia Social (Museu Nacional/UFRJ), pesquisador do Centro de Estudos Sociais Aplicados (CESAP/ IUPERJ/ UCAM). Revista Tendências: Caderno de Ciências Sociais. Nº 7, 2013 ISSN: 1677-9460 Com as mãos sujas de sangue: música, emoções e romantismos Abstract This article aims to analyze the songs produced by rock bands classified as “emo” nowadays. Rescuing the romantic imagination of the eighteenth century – which has in the book The Sorrows of Young Werther, by Johann Wolfgang Goethe, one of your best elaborations – we seek to understand more precisely the different strategies and inflections in the historical process of developing a subjectivity internalized and autonomously, typical of western modernity, based on two distinct artistic experiences.

  • Masculinity in Emo Music a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Arts and Social Science in Candi
    CARLETON UNIVERSITY FLUID BODIES: MASCULINITY IN EMO MUSIC A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SOCIAL SCIENCE IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC BY RYAN MACK OTTAWA, ONTARIO MAY 2014 ABSTRACT Emo is a genre of music that typically involves male performers, which evolved out of the punk and hardcore movements in Washington DC during the mid-80s. Scholarly literature on emo has explored its cultural and social contexts in relation to the “crisis” of masculinity—the challenging of the legitimacy of patriarchy through “alternative” forms of masculinity. This thesis builds upon this pioneering work but departs from its perpetuation of strict masculine binaries by conflating hegemonic and subordinate/alternative masculinities into a single subject position, which I call synergistic masculinity. In doing so, I use emo to explicate this vis-à-vis an intertextual analysis that explores the dominant themes in 1) lyrics; 2) the sites of vocal production (head, throat, chest) in conjunction with pitch and timbre; 3) the extensional and intensional intervallic relationships between notes and chords, and the use of dynamics in the musical syntax; 4) the use of public and private spaces, as well as the performative masculine body in music video. I posit that masculine emo performers dissolve these hierarchically organized masculinities, which allows for a deeper musical meaning and the extramusical signification of masculinity. Keywords: emo, synergistic masculinity, performativity, music video, masculinities, lyrics, vocal production, musical syntax, dynamics. ABSTRAIT Emo est un genre musical qui implique typiquement des musiciens de sexe masculine et qui est issu de movement punk et hardcore originaire de Washington DC durant les années 80.

    This Ain’t a Scene, It’s a Buzzer Race Sadboys are temporary. Sad trumpets are forever. Written by Brian Luong Tossups: 1. This band’s extensive and impressive merchandise catalogue can be attributed to guitarist Nick Steinhardt’s side occupation as a graphic designer. A live EP following this band’s sophomore studio album was titled Live on BBC Radio 1 and featured vocals from Jordan Dreyer of La Dispute. It’s not Red Hot Chili Peppers, but this band’s distinct asterisk-shaped logo was meant to evoke converging road markings leading to a sunset, and was first used in promotional artwork for the band’s second album, with that album’s initials “PTSBBAM” arranged in the negative spaces of the logo. This band’s 2016 single “Palm Dreams” was described by their frontman as a song about his inability to ask his mother about why she moved to California after she passed. The album from which that single is taken, as a whole, deals with themes of frontman Jeremy Bolm grieving the loss of his mother due to cancer. For 10 points, give the name of this Los Angeles-based post-hardcore band, which you may know from the albums Parting the Sea Between Brightness and Me and Stage Four. ANSWER: Touché Amoré 2.
