MCR - news, interviews, music vids, and fan vids..... My Chemcial Romance Is: Gerard Way - frontman & lead vocalist Mikey Way -bass guitarist Ray Toro - lead guitarist & back up vocalist Frank Iero - rhythm guitarist & back up vocalist Bob Bryar - drummer ....My Chemical Romance cite their main influences as Queen, Thursday, Iron Maiden, The Misfits, and Morrissey/The Smiths. Gerard Way has said, "We love bands like Queen, where it's huge and majestic, but also bands like Black Flag and the Misfits, who would go absolutely crazy." Way has also said that his band patterns their career after that of The Smashing Pumpkins, another band they admire. Growing up, they were also very influenced by horror films and comic books, and therefore their music, lyrics, and image all have overt elements of fantasy, storytelling, horror, and theatricality.
