My Chemical Romance - A Road Less Travelled - Michl Technik

Formed in the wake of the 9/11 bombings, following mainman Gerard Way's witnessing first hand of that day's gruesome events, My Chemical Romance have gone on to become one of the finest and most successful rock acts of their generation - a classic example of something joyous and positive being realised from a tragedy. Now, with two multi-million selling albums under their belts and an army of fans whose passion for their idols is legendary, MCR's dark lyrics, hard-edged playing, superb live shows and striking designs have catapulted these New Jersey over-achievers into the stratosphere of the truly great bands - up there with U2, Nirvana and Metallica.

This documentary film, the finest yet to appear on the group, charts the entire history of My Chemical Romance, from their earliest days spent playing to a local following, through the lads’ signing with a major label and their taking of the music and message to a global audience, and then following the group thereafter as they conquer the music loving world and become the blueprint for a hundred tame copyists. The film gives the inside story of this extraordinary act through exclusive interviews, location shoots, previously unpublished photographs and footage and a wealth of other material, which all at once makes for a fluid and focussed insight into the past, present and future of MCR.

Also features "EXTRAS" such as photo-gallery, the MCR interactive challenge and digital contributor biographies, plus "beyond DVD" section for the true.
