DR. DEATH DEFYING
Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys is the fourth studio album by American alternative rock band My Chemical Romance. The album was produced by Rob Cavallo and was released by Warner Music and Reprise Records on 19 November 2010. The album was released in the USA by Reprise Records on 22 November 2010. The album sold 112,500 copies in its first week of release. The album came four years after their previous. All songs are written by Frank Iero, Ray Toro, Gerard Way and Mikey Way, as well as by ex-drummer Bob Bryar while he was in the band.
KOBRA KID
The album's concept is based around the lives of the "Fabulous Killjoys", in the setting of California in the year 2019. The band's alter-egos are the four Killjoys: "Party Poison" (Gerard Way), "Jet-Star" (Ray Toro), "Fun Ghoul" (Frank Iero), and "Kobra Kid" (Mikey Way), shown in the videos for "Na Na Na" and "SING". The Killjoys are a group of outlaws who are fighting against the evil corporation Better Living Industries (BL/ind.) and its leader Korse (Grant Morrison). The character aliases are the names of their "designer" guns. Their guide is the pirate radio DJ named Dr. Death Defying who is voiced by Steve Montano.
PARTY POISON
The two music videos show a girl (played by upcoming actress Grace Jeanette). '"Na Na Na" shows the Killjoys' daily lives until Korse defeats them and captures the girl, and "SING" shows Killjoy's rescue mission to get her back; however, this mission sees the gang wiped out in the process, though the girl is taken in by Dr. Death Defying and their other allies.
JET STAR
The lyrics of most songs flag up that the Killjoys are outgunned and doomed, but are taking action despite that ("Save Yourself, I'll Hold Them Back" has the lyrics "who gives a damn if we lose this war", and "I'll tell you all how the story ends, where the good guys die and the bad guys win"); focus is repeatedly placed on standing up and standing together, as well as simply having fun. Several songs also refer to "the lights" going out, implied to be some major, devastating event (Dr. Death Defying calls back to this in his last broadcast).
FUN GHOUL
The final track, "Vampire Money", has a bastardised version of the band singing an ode to selling out ("play the game and take the band real far"). This was a reaction to the band being asked to do a song for the film New Moon, part of the Twilight franchise. Gerard Way said that the reason the song was on the album was because "there’s a lot of people chasing that fucking money. ‘Twilight?’ A lot of people around us were like, ‘please, for the love of God, do this fucking movie.’ But we’d moved on."
