Watch their new short film now.
My Chemical Romance have announced a North American tour via an epic new short film.
After some earlier teasing, the band posted a new video on YouTube earlier today (January 29) entitled ‘A summoning…’. The 13 min long film was directed by Kris Mercado, who worked on their previous video ‘An Offering’ for the announcement of their UK shows in Milton Keynes, and music composed by Ray Toro and Jamie Muhoberac.
It stars Marcos Garcia as a man who summons the spirit of the band using a ouija board. It features nods to all the eras of MCR including the album cover of ‘Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge’, the hospital bed seen in the opening of ‘The Black Parade’ tour and the dystopian Los Angeles of ‘Danger Days’.
You can check out the full video below:
