"Tomorrow's Money" - Lyrics
Fell in love with a vampire
You wanna get it for free
Then say hello to the brushfire, baby
You gotta take it from me
I’m gonna take it from you
Say hello to the good times
And say hello to the sun
Sit back on an empire
While the world lays back
Would you get behind that gun
If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
When the mix tape plays
Choke down the words with no meaning
I stopped bleeding/believing three years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Me and my surgeons and my streetwalking friends
We got no heroes ’cause our heroes are dead
Yeah!
Say hello to the programme
We’re gonna get in for free
We’ve got our feet in the antibodies
Got it with the disease
We’re gonna give it to you
Say goodbye to the good times
You’re loading up with the fame
You’re dressing up like a virus
But the words get lost when we all look the same
If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
When the mix tape plays
Choke down the words with no meaning
I stopped bleeding/believing three years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Me and my surgeons and my streetwalking friends
We got no heroes ’cause our heroes are dead
Yeah
Fell in love with a vampire
Tops off for the empire
Say hello to the brushfire
I think my phone’s got a tap wire
Fell in love with a vampire
Tops off for the empire
Say hello to the brushfire
I think my phone’s got a tap wire
Yeah!
Yeah, if we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
We’re the only ones
Shut down a war with no meaning
I stopped bleeding/believing three years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Because i’m ??? Down(?) T-shirt you sell
You keep your money and i’ll see you in hell
You wanna get it for free
Then say hello to the brushfire, baby
You gotta take it from me
I’m gonna take it from you
Say hello to the good times
And say hello to the sun
Sit back on an empire
While the world lays back
Would you get behind that gun
If we crash this time
They got machines to keep us alive
When the mix tape plays
Choke down the words with no meaning
I stopped bleeding/believing three years ago
While you keep screaming for revolution
Me and my surgeons and my streetwalking friends
We got no heroes ’cause our heroes are dead
Yeah!
Say hello to the programme
We’re gonna get in for free
We’ve got our feet in the antibodies
Got it with the disease
We’re gonna give it to you
Say goodbye to the good times

Boy Division - Lyrics
Las canciones de Conventional Weapons #1 que tenian fecha de lanzamiento del 30 de octubre, se han filtrado en la red de redes, y como todo va y viene aquí esta la letra de Boy Division. Disfruten...
If all my enemies threw a party
Would you light the candles?
Would you drink the wine?
And watch the television?
Watch the animals and all the tradgedies?
And sell your arteries?
And buy my casket?
It better be black
It better be tight
It better be just my size
I'm stalking these metro malls, and
Airport halls, and
All these school girls
I'm not askin'
You're not tellin'
He's not dead, it
Only looks that...
Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and
Save me from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for ya
Sing a song for
California!
I bought my enemies rope to hang me
And the knives to get me
Where you can watch them stab me on your television
Stop the halls
Because the bathroom walls
Would have a lot to say
About the lives you're burning down
It better be white
It better be cut
It better be just my size
Until all my capillaries
Burst of boredom
I'll be waiting
I'm not laughing
You're not joking
I'm not dead, I only dress that...
Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and
Save my from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for you
Sing a song for
California!
Wherever you are...
Wherever you are...
Whoever you are...
Whoever you are!
LA LA LA LA
'Cause we got the bomb, we got the bomb, (let's go!)
'Cause we got the bomb, we got the bomb, (let's go!)
We got the bomb, we got the bomb, (let's go!)
We got the bomb, we got the bomb, (let's go!)
Way out nowhere
Take me out there
Far away and
Save me from my
Self destruction
Hopeless for you
Say a prayer for
California!
We got the bomb...
We got the bomb...
We got the bomb...!
We got the bomb!

Gerard Way se afeita, habla de magia y de "Umbrella Academy" [MorrisonCon]
En un baño unisex casi sin luz en el club Body English en el Las Vegas' Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Gerard Way, cantante de "My Chemical Romance", creador del cómic de ciencia-ficción / superheroes publicado por Dark Horse, "The Umbrella Academy" e invitado especial en la MorrisonCon, desempacó un kit de afeitar y declaró lo que él más amó sobre la convención fue la oportunidad de tener conversaciones profundas con los fans.
"Nunca me pongo a hacer eso. Por lo general, nos llevan directo al bus", dijo Way, llamando a la convención un "sorprendente" cambio de ritmo. El creador de cómics / músico, quien habló en los paneles de ese mismo día con Morrison y sus colegas músicos Jimmy Urine y DJ Akira The Don, realmente se había arrojado al espíritu de la convención, extendiendo su sesión de firmas de la tarde de una a cuatro horas y estirando su apretada agenda hasta el límite con el fin de hablar con los fans.
Ahora, en su camino a la filmación de un vídeo Way me invitó a unirse a él mientras se preparaba. Minutos después, se paró frente al espejo del baño, charlando sobre el acompañamiento musical de Way a los 45 minutos de presentación de la spoken word de Morrison en la noche del viernes mientras la estrella de rock se enjabonaba.
"No puedo recordar cuando la cosa se produjo, pero era como, 'Van a hacer una convención sobre Grant'. Yo estaba como, 'Whoa! Eso es realmente impresionante', porque no puedo recordar la última convención basada en un individuo y su manera de pensar", dijo Way.
En el 2010, Morrison apareció en el video de "My Chemical Romance" "Art is the weapon", protagonizando al villano del vídeo. Para MorrisonCon, Way fue más que feliz de colaborar musicalmente una vez más con el escritor de comics.
"Así que [Morrison] dijo, 'quiero una pieza, ¿quieres hacerlo? Quiero hacer un ritual de invocación'. Le dije: '¡Sí!' Quiero decir, él es mi héroe. Me dijo, 'Oh mi Dios, sí, voy a hacer este ritual de invocación contigo!' Es curioso, porque justamente lo que ocurrió cuando lo mencionó es exactamente lo que pensé que iba a ser, así que no me sorprende, la verdad."
Él estaba preparado para una spoken word de 45 minutos / interpretación musical que hacía las veces de un ritual mágico de invocación?
"¡Sí! Realmente preparado para ello!" Way respondió con entusiasmo mientras empezó a afeitarse. "Sonó y sentí exactamente como pensé que iba a sentir, y me encantó!"
A pesar de la gran cantidad de fans propios, el escritor / músico se rió cuando se le preguntó si le gustaría crear una convención similar - una WayCon - para sus fans.
"Grant es realmente la única persona que podría lograr eso porque es todo lo que abarca con música y magia", respondió Way, negando con la cabeza.
"Yo diría que si hay algo poco representado en la convención hasta el momento, es magia", continuó Way. "Pero eso fue la primera cosa que vimos todos, así que realmente creo que fue una cosa mágica la interfase con los fans, y nunca lo he visto en una convención. El hecho de que está poco representado-. Empezó con la magia, y ahora es acerca de otras cosas."
Cambiando de velocidad en su propio trabajo, Way explica que si bien se habló el año pasado de convertir a "The Umbrella Academy" en una pelicula, hay muy poco en el camino para una actualización aunque han habido algunos avances recientes en lo que se refiere al libreto.
"Tenemos un nuevo guión, que es un dato importante, no sé si vaya a tener mucho movimiento el guión anterior", dijo Way. "El nuevo guión es realmente grande y realmente depende de los que mandan, si quieren hacer esta película".
Con una sonrisa fácil Way, admitió que su serie, que sigue las vidas destructivas y disfuncionales de siete cultivados ex niños superhéroes que intentan evitar el apocalipsis, no cae fácilmente en la fórmula de Hollywood.
"No es algo fácil de vender, no es una película fácil. Hay un chimpancé hablando, hay un hombre marciano azuel en un cuerpo de gorila -. ¡Eso es una película difícil de hacer y por el dinero, es muy difícil", dijo Way.
Asiente con la cabeza de acuerdo a una comparación entre "Umbrella Academy" y "X-Men", donde el Profesor X realmente odia a sus estudiantes, Way dijo que el verdadero reto en la adaptación de su obra a la pantalla grande es mantener el espíritu con el que fue concebido y escrito.
Por desgracia para los fans de "Umbrella Academy", Way dijo que actualmente no existe una fecha de lanzamiento concreta para "Hotel Oblivion", el próximo capítulo de la serie, a pesar de que está trabajando duro en ello.
"Empecé a escribirlo, y Gabrielle [Ba] está muy ocupado. La cosa es que si está escrito, alguien lo tiene que dibujar. Él lo dibujará cuando él tenga la oportunidad de dibujarlo. Estoy escribiendo sólo y estoy pretendiendo que él va a ser capaz de dibujar cuando haya terminado", dijo Way. "Estaba muy emocionado de empezar a escribir de nuevo. Extrañaba esos personajes, echaba de menos ese mundo".
Los dos primeros arcos de la serie de Way no sólo introdujo a los aficionados a ese mundo sino que también sirvió como estudio de mini-personajes. El primero, "The Apocalypse Suite", giró en torno a la sin poderes miembro de la Umbrella Academy, Vanya, que se enteró de que en realidad poseía la habilidad musical para acabar con el mundo. El segundo, "Dallas", seguió con el viajero en el tiempo, Number Five, quien se topó con el apocalipsis y quedó atrapado en el cuerpo de un niño de diez años de edad. El tercer capítulo, Way dijo a CBR, también tendrá una mirada más profunda a uno de los otros siete personajes principales.
"Tratamos de hacer un personaje centrado, de esta manera todas las rutas parecen muy interesantes, te dan un poco de eso en cada una. Creo que debería centrarse en cada personaje al menos uno de ellos - todo el mundo debería obtener su punto de mira para en su camino." dijo Way.
"Esta es una larga experiencia de afeitado", añadió Way, frunciendo el ceño ante su barbilla en el espejo.
Tengo que admitirlo nunca me he afeitado antes, no tenia idea de como seria la experiencia.
"Las maquinas de afeitar son asperas al pasar” suspiro Way, aplicando de nuevo su BIC sobre su barbilla.
Regresando a sus protagonistas Way dijo que deliberadamente quería que todos sus personajes fueran antipáticos la primera vez que los lectores los conocieran.
“La razón porque lo hice es porque creo que todo el mundo es dificil de agradar, creo que todos somos difíciles de agradar como personas, tu debes llegar a conocernos, a todos nosotros, y eso nunca he visto que sea representado en un comic, donde lo fue, “estos personajes son difíciles de agradar” dijo riéndose.
Finalmente guardando su kit de afeitar, Way explico como "Umbrella Academy" y MorrisonCon compartieron una clase especial de KISMET , siendo en primer lugar Morrison uno de los que lo inspiraron a escribir, “lei una entrevista – y eso es lo que me hizo querer hacer “Umbrella” —lei una entrevista, y fue mas como un manifiesto, Grant estaba hablando sobre como hay una nueva ola de LO-FI rareza apunto de golpear, a punto de llegar, y me dije a mi mismo “ quiero ser parte de eso , voy a hacer un libro que sea parte de eso”
"Si nos fijamos en los cómics hoy, ahora mismo, todo está explotando", continuó Way mientras nos dirigíamos a la planta baja al equipo de filmación que lo esperaba. "Eso es lo que está pasando, lee a Matt Fraction, está sucediendo desde Marvel a DC, todo el tablero. Tenía razón, pero leí eso y me lo tomé como, 'Oh, será mejor que levante mi trasero y haga algo! Ser parte de esto. Eso es lo que es."
En cuanto a las observaciones singulares de Way, musicalmente influido por el estilo de escritura y con ciertas similitudes con Morrison, Way respondió: "Está inspirado en Grant, con el espíritu de la diferencia y la creatividad y la energía. De hecho, me parece que si lees nuestro trabajo, es muy diferente. Pero el espíritu está allí de la experimentación, la creatividad y todo eso."
"Soy un soldado más, así es como me siento. Pero un soldado muy diferente, como si estuviera atacando el frente del Norte!" Way declaró con una sonrisa final, haciendo una pausa en la habitación verde del Body English para modelar su rostro recién afeitado para la cámara y el equipo aplaudió.
"Estas tan afeitado!" uno de los operadores de cámara se rió.
"Ya lo sé!" Way dijo, con una sonrisa de vuelta.

Q&A with Frank Iero [AP]
Frank Iero is a huge fan of film director Tim Burton, so you
can only imagine how ridiculously stoked the My Chemical Romance
guitarist was when he was asked to contribute to the
soundtrack-companion album for the remake of Burton’s first film, Frankenweenie.
Iero’s track, “This Song Is A Curse,” feels like a collision of film
composer maestro Danny Elfman’s aesthetics with Suicidal Tendencies’
bona fide punk classic “Institutionalized.” In June, Iero corralled MCR
auxiliary players Jarrod Alexander (drums) and James Dewees (keyboards),
producer/engineer Doug McKean and MCR guitarist Ray Toro (as
co-producer) to record the song which appears on the iTunes edition of Frankenweenie Unleashed! (Music Inspired By The Motion Picture).
Jason Pettigrew caught up with Iero to discuss the roots of the project, the pursuit of new avenues and the dish on the new MCR album. (Spoiler alert: Iero knows how it will turn out as much as you know exactly what’s going to happen to you on, say, October 17. Is that arbitrary enough for you?) How did you get involved with the soundtrack?
Hmmm… I guess I kinda muscled my way into it. [Laughs.] Disney does these "inspired by" soundtracks and they originally approached My Chem to contribute. They were having a screening over at [their studios] and they said, “If you’re interested in doing something, come out and see the movie and see if you’re inspired to write a song.” Lauren [Valencia, MCR manager] knew I was a big fan of Burton’s, so she asked me if I wanted to go. I said, "I don’t know about the soundtrack thing, but I definitely want to see the movie." [Laughs.] When I finally saw it, I loved it: I thought it was his best in years. I think it might rival The Nightmare Before Christmas, which is one of my favorites. So I saw it, loved it, but didn’t really think about the soundtrack.
I didn’t think about the soundtrack until... maybe the next day or the day after? I was feeding the girls breakfast one morning and sometimes you make up songs to get your kids to eat. So I was humming a melody, and I thought, "Hmm, that’s kinda cool," and I started to think about the movie I’d just seen. Later, I approached [MCR], told them I went to see this thing and that I wrote this song if they want to do it. They were like, “Well, we’ll see. We’re doing the record now," and it kinda went to the back burner. I didn’t approach it again for a few months until the deadline was coming up. I approached the guys again and they said we didn’t have the time to do it. And I was like "Do you mind if I do?" I approached [the soundtrack producers] and asked if I could do the track. They got back to me over the weekend and the following week, I went into the studio and knocked it out.
"This Song Is A Curse" is a mix of widescreen film production with excitable punk angst. Were those elements you distilled from the movie?
Yeah, kinda. The approach I took to the song was the sentiment of the original concept of the movie: the kid loses his dog and doesn’t want to let go. I wanted to take a J.D. Salinger approach to the story of Frankenstein: It’s not so much about playing God as much as it is holding onto the past and not being able to let it go. The more you do that, the more you fuck everything up. Other than the line about science, I drew everything else from my own life. I don’t know how you can’t while writing music. I get those Holden Caulfield tendencies where I see things the way they are, then I finally get used to them and then everything changes and it makes me want to kill myself. [Laughs.]
Maybe you and I should start a support group. I’ve always perceived your role in MCR as the one-two-fuck-you punk-rock guy. But I remember you blogging about how you wrote the tuba part for "Dead!" from The Black Parade and wisecracking something like, "That was totally my idea, you got a problem with that?" Do you see "Curse" as some kind of jumping-off point for you to pursue similar kinds of projects outside the realm of MCR?
It’s something the members have all talked about. We like being cinematic with our records. We’ve always been fascinated with how music conveys emotions and then how that works within the images in a movie. But really, I just love making music, and I love writing songs. I’m constantly coming up with things, and if there’s an outlet I can be creative in, I’ll take it. Last week, I was in a studio in New Jersey that’s owned by a friend of mine. I just went over to hang out, but we ended up having a couple of beers and doing a song. It was the first time I ever did something where I played everything. I’m going back into the studio to finish the track, maybe record another one. I’m also thinking about putting up a website where I can just put stuff out. It’s an idea that’s still in its infancy, so I still don’t know what it is. I love making music in My Chem, but sometimes our timelines are... very long. [Laughs.] I just want to do something I can put out quickly before I overanalyze it—which is funny, because I’m in a band with four guys who overanalyze everything. [Laughs.]
Hypothetical situation: Somebody throws you a briefcase full of money and tells you, "Make a record. You’re recording in seven hours." How do you think it would sound?
Oh, man... I don’t know. I think it would be very disjointed, as everything I’ve been writing has been all over the place. As a fan, I like working with big production techniques and making recordings that I can add to in my imagination. It’s funny: "This Song Is A Curse" was the first thing we finished at the studio we built to record the next My Chem record, so that’s kinda cool. I’m happy we’re experimenting with things in that space. The new My Chem record isn’t going to sound anything like "Curse," but it’s actually cool you can make that kind of noise in it. [Laughs.] That was the first time I, by myself, ever did something with someone—Doug McKean—who knew how to record things. I like being forced to work within limitations.
On a side note, does your proto-screamo band Leathermouth belong to history?
If we had talked several weeks ago, I would’ve said yes. I was originally brought into that band with the other guys. Then they found religion, then things got messed up between us. Not friendship-wise; they didn’t want to be a part of Leathermouth anymore. I guess they thought I’d taken it too far...
Ahh, the men in black…
[Laughs.] So I had to go recruit people to go on this crazy journey with me to play XO [the band’s debut album] live for people. I thought, "Damnit, if I wanted to do something on my own, I would’ve done that. I wanted this to be a band. I guess this is over because it’s not a band anymore." There’s still part of me that would hate not doing that band again. There’s something brewing, but I don’t know what it is. I really wanted that band to go on longer, but Jesus had other plans. [Laughs.]
I would be remiss if I didn’t ask: What can you tell me about the new MCR record?
Ohhhh, man! What can I tell you? There are a lot of songs written. Some of them are recorded decently, but its not near completion by any means. It’s taken a lot of effort for us to wrap our heads around it. I could tell you everything about the record right now, and I guarantee that all of it would change tomorrow. [Extended pause.] Really, all I can say is that it’s elaborate. It’s fucking elaborate.

Yeah. There’s a bit of bleakness to it, I must say.

Maybe that’s how I stay happy in all these other venues: I don’t bring it home. [Laughs.] You take music away from me, and you’ll be hearing about me on the news! alt
