My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way has said that his band miss being an ordinary rock act.
The singer claimed that the extravagant live shows used on the early tour dates for their concept album Welcome To The Black Parade will be ditched for a more straightforward punk rock direction on their new record.
"I think [the next album] will definitely be stripped down. I think the band misses being a rock band," Way told NME.
"That doesn’t mean we won't explore really crazy ideas on the next albums, or do something even crazier.
"It doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll start to take steps backwards creatively. But it felt in a live sense, this is what we do great live.
"And we’re better musicians for having written and played 'The Black Parade', so you're dealing with [the fact that] everybody's better as musicians and singers"
