I never really listened to them, wasn't my scene. I seem to remember the Black Parade being lauded as one of the more artistic achievements from bands of that ilk tho.
It is the only artistic achievement of any band of that ilk. : ) and that is with dramatically lowered standards than we made in the 70s.
The return concert was amazing! I got to view a Live stream of it. (That's how I most enjoy concert going these days anyway. Hehe) But too bad they didn't play much more than a third of my ideal set list. Oh the hits were all there, of course, but I like the rare stuff.
