During their October 30 show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, My Chemical Romance performed “We Don’t Need Another Song About California” live for the first time. You can check out some fan-filmed footage of that below. The track is from the band’s 2010 album “Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys.”
Last night (October 30), My Chemical Romance and The Used performed at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA. The concert also found the two bands collaborating onstage. My Chemical Romance singer Gerard Way joined The Used for a live performance of “Buried Myself Alive,” while The Used singer Bert McCracken joined My Chemical Romance for a live performance of “You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison.” Footage can be found below:
During a recent episode of “James Hetfield’s Riff Life” on SiriusXM’s “Maximum Metallica” channel, Metallica vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield revealed that Turnstile turned down the chance to tour with them. He said the following about that:
“We have seen them live, we wanted to get them on tour, and they said no. They’re doing good on their own already. But man, what a vibe they bring. They are so fun. Go see them play if you can. Just like many, many bands, they sound great on their records and recordings, but man, when you see them live, you totally get it. We’ve hung out with them a bit. Super cool guys, super fun. They’ve got a gal in the band now playing, which is fun.”

During My Chemical Romance’s October 30 show at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, CA, frontman Gerard Way offered an update on the band’s new album plans. He told the crowd the following:
“Next year, we want to go make a record, so we’re probably not doing any shows and there’s no secret code to that… I mean, maybe if we get really rusty while we’re making something, we’ll be like, ‘alright, lets call the band ‘Helena’ or something’, and we’ll show up. But seriously, we want to go do that and then hopefully we’ll see you guys in 2028.”
As previously reported, Storm Corrosion, the band featuring Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree) and Mikael Åkerfeldt (Opeth), are working on a new album. Now, it has also been revealed that the effort will feature “a single piece of music that is 45 minutes long.”
Wilson told Prog the following:
“We spent a week in Stockholm earlier this year and created a 45-minute framework. A single piece of music that is 45 minutes long, and it’s fucked up. It’s almost entirely acoustic, but it’s very dark, very atonal in places, and very beautiful in places. It has a vaguely nautical theme about an old guy shipwrecked on an island.
It’s not completely acoustic. Mike still plays some electric guitars. But Benny from ABBA has this incredible collection of instruments and we set them up in the studio and we basically just went around playing all manner of stuff. I was like a man possessed for a week, and we ended up with this amazing piece of music. We haven’t done the vocal tracking yet, but I’m really excited about it.”
