My Chemical Romance has spent the past year on tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of 2006’s The Black Parade. The group released one more LP — 2010’s Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys — before disbanding for a half-decade in the mid-2010s.
The group reunited in 2019 for a series of tours but only one new song, 2022’s “The Foundations of Decay.” However, at Saturday’s show, Way revealed to fans that MCR hopes to start work on their long-awaited next album.
“We should probably make more songs. [“The Foundations of Decay”] was really awesome when we kept doing it,” Way told fans at the Alamodome. “And then you know, stuff happens, life happens. But, just know that, we kind of always wanted to make another record, so we hope to. Because you guys, honestly, kept us alive for so long that you guys deserve another record.”
