    my chemical romance and panic at the disco. their hayday was their first, like, two albums and then they did something completely different. i hate it so much :c

    also stars. they used to be my favorite band ever and then went in a completely different direction with the north album. also a very sucky change that dropped them from my favorite band.

      i’m with you for patd, fever is amazing and i’m not a fan of bachelor and later, but man i’m sorry to hear you don’t like mcrs newer stuff as much as i do. as much as i do love bullets, imo their golden era is three cheers and tbp

      have you listened to foundations of decay? if so, how you feel about that one? sorry for all of the questions ;) i just like taking the chance to talk about mcr with anyone who’ll listen haha

          ahh okay i see, you said “first two” so i assumed you meant bullets and three cheers were your beloveds, while tbp and past that are all duds- tbp is definitely my favourite lol, so made me abut sad to hear at first, but i’m glad to hear it’s not the case :3 and you haven’t listed to foundations?? you’ve got to get on that! it’s a little janky compared to their other stuff, the production makes the lyrics especially difficult to make out, but it’s more like three cheers than danger days at least imo so maybe you’d like it!

          also, i like your home instance :3 funny meeting another furry mcr fan, but i suppose we tend to have common interests

      Fall Out Boy also changed pretty significantly around the same time as PATD. I think as they got a larger following they just followed the money. Hard to blame them for it, but they’re first 3 albums are so much better than the later stuff. I’ll absolutely still listen to it, though

        good point, yeah! fall out boy was the same way. it’s a shame all these emo bands decided to do something different. they were killing it :/
