Three Thank you for Sweet Revenge (oft shortened to Three Cheers or Revenge )[1] is the second studio album past American rock ring My Chemical Romance, released on June eight, 2004, by Reprise Records.[2] [3] With this album, the band produced a cleaner sound than that of their 2002 debut I Brought Y'all My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love.[4] It was the band'south start release to feature rhythm guitarist Frank Iero on all tracks, as well equally the terminal release to characteristic drummer Matt Pelissier, who would later on be replaced by Bob Bryar.[5]

The album was a success for both the ring and the characterization.[six] The record produced several radio singles and popular MTV videos, including "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)," "Helena," and "The Ghost of Yous." The four singles from the album included "I'chiliad Not Okay (I Promise)", "Helena", "The Ghost of Y'all", and in the United kingdom, "Give thanks You lot for the Venom".[4] It was certified platinum less than a year afterwards its release,[3] and has sold over three one thousand thousand copies in the United States.[6]

Music and lyrical themes [edit]

Musically, "3 Thank you for Sweetness Revenge" has been described as alternative rock,[7] emo,[4] [8] [9] pop punk,[10] [4] [viii] post-hardcore,[11] and punk rock.[12] [13] While I Brought Yous My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love was considered "a particularly strident entry in that shifty genre of bands tortuously slamming together elements of emo, hardcore, and even metal",[14] Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge "both showcased their songwriting skills and gave them much-deserved attention".[4] Moving away from the "screamo parts"[15] and "the more complicated structures"[16] of their starting time tape in favor of a sound that "skirts the line between popular punk and edgy, theatrical, emo"[4] while beingness "strongly influenced by hardcore punk",[16] 3 Cheers for Sweet Revenge has been variously compared to The Misfits,[17] AFI,[fourteen] and Thursday.[14]

Lead singer Gerard Way has referred to the first single "I'm Not Okay (I Hope)" as a "self assist pop song"[eighteen] while besides being called "a surging slice of emo-pop with a claw equally ridiculously catchy every bit information technology was ridiculous"[19] and a "moving anthem for the young and depressed"[twenty] by AllMusic and Rolling Stone respectively. This single went on to exist nominated for the Kerrang! award for all-time single[21] and reached number 86 on the US Billboard Hot 100.[22]

The album opener "Helena" has been referred to as an "album highlight and smash hit". Gerard has claimed that the song "shaped what the album is about" and "revealed their night side" in comparison to the outset single.[18] Its lyrics mourn the loss of Gerard and Mikey's grandmother,[eighteen] Elena Lee Rush, and was their first entry into the top 40.[22]

Album concept [edit]

Co-ordinate to Mode, the album can exist understood as a "pseudo-conceptual horror story",[4] that details:

...the story of a man and a adult female who are separated by death in a gunfight and he goes to hell only to realize by the devil telling him that she'southward still alive. The devil says he can be with her again if he brings the devil the souls of a thousand evil men and the human being agrees to do it, and so the devil hands him a gun. That was the idea behind the concept, the tape concluded upwards beingness much more nearly loss and real life than anything, then I would say it's a expert split.[23]
