The song that grabbed his attention was Vampires Will Never Hurt You. They slipped to it Alex Saavedra, owner of the local Eyeball Records, who passed it on to the singer with Thursday, Geoff Rickly. Up in the attic of the band’s first drummer, Matt Pelissier, the nascent My Chemical Romance worked on a very rough demo tape.

Simple, searing and sizzling, he preaches about capitalism and fame while the song itself gave him and the band the impetus to put the rest of the record together. He headed out to the desert with his wife and young daughter to brood on matters, and out of nowhere came the thrilling, visceral and utterly joyful Na Na Na. Gerard had been determined to ditch the characters and concepts that had informed previous albums and it hadn’t worked out. My Chemical Romance scrapped an entire album before making their fourth and final record, Danger Days, and were at something of a creative dead end. Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na) (2010) It’s tempting to wonder if The Kids From Yesterday – mature, commercial, arena-sized emotions – was where they would have gone with a fifth album.ħ. On each of My Chemical Romance’s albums there’s a clue as to where they were likely to head next ( Headfirst For Halos on the debut, You Know What They Do… on the second, Famous Last Words on The Black Parade). Leaving SING – a worldwide hit for good reason – the instantly appealing Bulletproof Heart, Planetary (GO!) (a band favourite), and a personal favourite S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W out of a best of My Chemical Romance list is difficult, but The Kids From Yesterday is a song of such heart and punch that it’s impossible not to include it.

The glorious Ghost Of You was Three Cheers’s final single, You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison was the sexually playful bridge between the second album and The Black Parade, but Thank You… got heads banging down the front. The Alley Cats appear in Urgh! A Music War doing "Nothing Means Nothing Anymore".A song which seems to sum up all the elements of the band’s second album: furiously fast punk and searing, jagged riffs frantic and breathless vocals then a melody so big and immediate it lodges without ever leaving oh, and super sharp lyrics. what was there not to like about band founders Randy & Dianne? They were the nicest people, played the greatest music, fit in on any bill, always gave it their all. Everything this band did was just top notch, they were loved by all - the Hollywood punk rockers, the South Bay kids, the Orange County kids. (Of course I'd dug this one, nothin' means nothin' anymore was my motto 'til I outgrew a bit of my nihilism & meant somethin' sometimes.) The Alley Cats from LA's South Bay (Lomita, actually) put out this fantastic single on Dangerhouse. Their earliest release, a single "Nothing Means Nothing Anymore" b/w "Give Me a Little Pain" was released on Dangerhouse Records (the independent that once boasted such legendary acts as the Avengers, the Bags, & X) in 1978.

His wife, Dianne Chai, on bass, & John McCarthy on drums made for one of the tightest outfits around. Michigan emigre Randy Stodola was the songwriter/guitarist & driving force, with a penchant for surreal narrative in his lyrics. Imagine a more heroin induced X with druggy lyrics that wallow in the excesses of the lowliest of street life. Randy Stodola could burn on the guitar, blasting the sharpest, smoothest riffs from his Fender Twin-Reverb amp.ĭianne Chai looked like a Chinese-American B-girl with a huge bouffant hair-do & sounded like Hell's angel. I saw them in a beat-up supper club on the nastier side of Hollywood Boulevard around '79 or '80 for $3. Just where the Alley Cats / Zarkons come into the mix.Īnyone who's been around this place before knows that my musickal tastes are, well, mine alone & mighty damn strange, so you probably won't be too surprised when I proffer The Alley Cats as one of the great overlooked bands. What about the other letters? What about A to Z? My normally short attention span has been stretched beyond the breaking point with this continuing F thing.
