Look alive sunshine: New My Chemical Romance single review

The new My Chemical Romance single "Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)" from there long awaited (seriously, its been forever!) upcoming album "Danger Days: The True Live of the Fabulous Killjoys"was released on iTunes today and it is as unexpected as it is refreshing.

My Chem has been in the studio since last year. The band ended up scrapping an entire albums worth of music after drummer Bob Bryer left the band.

With a new outlook and a desire to stray away from the bold arena rock dramatics of its last record The Black Parade, the sound is a complete 180 but the concept is all My Chem. Taking the idea from Gerard and Mikey Way's new comic The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys, the band follow story and sound with an image that is unforgettable. It is unclear if the original comic will be released.

Taking punk rock to a Mad Max world full of masked enemies and ray guns, the Killjoys seem to be a rag tag bunch of anti heroes in the post apocalyptic remains of Battery City.

The band posted a teaser trailer titled Art is the Weapon on September 18 of this year that showcases concept and sound coalesce into pure awesome.

The song is just pure fun. From the bratty chorus of na na na, to the nonsensical lyrics like "eat plastic surgery!" or my personal favorite "Cut my hair/gag and bore me" the song is high energy with no signs of stopping. All the classic MCR moments are there. Great guitar solos, awesome lyrics to shout along with as well as dance to. Na Na Na is RockNRoll at its finest.

Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys comes out November 22
