If there’s a band that loves stressing out their fans with vague posts more than My Chemical Romance, we haven’t discovered them yet.
On May 13, My Chemical Romance posted a graphic of the iconic spider from their album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys overlaying the album’s desert cover inside the Roman numerals ‘XV’ to their Instagram. The caption was just one word: “Tomorrow.”
The Roman numerals represent the number 15, which may represent the album’s fifteenth anniversary. Danger Days was released on November 22, 2010. While this post came six months later than the anniversary date, fans are still eagerly awaiting to see what’s coming next.
Until then, keep your boots tight and your gun close. We’ll be sleeping with one eye open tonight.
UPDATE (MAY 14):
The future may be bulletproof, but the aftermath…is anticlimactic.
On May 14, My Chemical Romance stopped teasing fans and unveiled the release of a deluxe edition of their 2010 album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.
The re-release includes bonus tracks “Zero Percent” and “We Don’t Need Another Song About California”, as well as tracks from the album’s companion EP The Mad Gear and Missile Kid: “F.T.W.W.W.”, “Mastas of Ravenkroft” and “Black Dragon Fighting Society”. Other bonus tracks on the album include BBC Radio 1 performances of “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” and a cover of Pulp’s “Common People”, as well as iTunes Festival ‘11 performances of “SING” and “The Kids From Yesterday”.
Danger Days Deluxe can be purchased on a variety of variant vinyls including green sludge, picture discs, zoetrope, pink starburst and a Spotify-exclusive ruby. Cassettes, CDs, pin sets and a variety of wearables are also available for purchase on the band’s official website.
Go figure.
