REPRISE RECORDS TO RELEASE MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE’S THREE CHEERS FOR SWEET REVENGE ON LIMITED-EDITION VINYL ON DECEMBER 16TH

Burbank, CA- In what is sure to be a must-have for devoted fans and vinyl collectors, Warner Bros. Records will release My Chemical Romance’s 2004 breakthrough album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge on vinyl on December 16th, 2008.

The limited-edition vinyl version of the New Jersey-based band’s major-label debut includes one red vinyl disc in a custom jacket. The jacket features a die-cut logo stencil insert lettered in My Chemical Romance’s classic font. A sticker is also included in the package.

The band’s commercial breakthrough, Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, was released by Reprise Records in June 2004. The album spawned three Top Ten Alternative Rock radio hits, “I’m Not OK (I Promise),” “Helena,” and “The Ghost of You,” driving it to platinum status in the U.S. and more than two million in sales worldwide. Critics praised Three Cheers as aggressive, melodic, and forward-thinking and My Chemical Romance quickly became one of the biggest bands on the modern rock scene.

The band recently completed their longest and most internationally comprehensive headlining tour in support of their 2006 platinum album The Black Parade, capping off the run by selling out a show at Madison Square Garden.
