JAKARTA - My Chemical Romance (MCR) shared their first post-reunion photo after six years of separation.

Last month, the band announced a comeback show at the Shrine Expo Hall, Los Angeles which will be held on December 20. Tickets were on sale since November 1 and were sold out in a matter of minutes.

Gerard Way et al then shared details of the three shows scheduled for 2020. Posting on their social media, MCR will be performing in Australia, New Zealand and Japan early next year.

They will be performing at The Outer Fieldsm Western Spring Stadium in Auckland on March 25, along with a number of special guests such as Jimmy Eat World, Midnight Youth, and Miss June.

Last Saturday, the band shared their first photo since they were together again. With a simple photo caption that reads, "11.5.19" - which is assumed to be the date the photo was taken. The black and white photo shows MCR sitting on the floor of the practice studio.

Meanwhile last week, their single, entitled The Black Parade returned to the Billboard 200 chart. Referring to official data, the album which was released in 2006 also returned to the Billboard album chart for the first time in two years.

The news about the MCR reunion was revealed by Gerard Way in an interview with The Guardian. Gerard said the success of the album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys influenced the disbandment of MCR. The pressure at that time was the culmination of the turmoil that the band had felt since the success of The Black Parade album.

"When things become successful and go well, that's when people start to have opinions and you start struggling," he said, quoted from NME.

"Everyone has an opinion on what the MCR should do. It makes it difficult to determine the direction to take. You are in the trap of thinking 'Is this good enough?'"

The reunion discourse has actually resonated for years after the disbandment of MCR. "I miss playing with the members, but I don't think so (for the reunion)." Now, the discourse is answered.
