* TroubledProduction: My Chemical Romance seems to be a magnet when it comes to Troubled Productions. Every single album they've done has been, on some scale, a troubled one.
** ''I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love'' was recorded in a stuffy, small basement studio. Gerard suffered an emergency dental procedure, which left him in pain during vocal takes. When he was complaining, the band's then-manager punched him in the face before he went in to do a vocal performance. Toro also struggled with the complicated compositions, not knowing how to take his musical ideas and simplify them enough for one guitarist to pull off. They ended up rush-hiring Frank Iero to help out.
** ''Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge'' showed the band facing problems with alcoholism and drug addiction. Gerard has described the recording process as a blur. He had an emotional breakdown that resulted in him having to face his inner demons and defeat his alcoholism. Being part of a major label for the first time also created tension among fans, who were not enjoying the new "commercial" direction the band was heading in. They also had to fire their drummer at the time, Matt Pellissier, who caused an internet backlash over the situation.
** None of the other albums can hold a candle to ''The Black Parade''. Frustrated from the seemingly directionless concept of ''Three Cheers'', they wanted to aim for a higher concept circulating around death and morbid situations. The problem was that they may have very well overdid the exploration of the concept. The band bickered constantly. Gerard trapped himself alone in a room, forcing himself into a depressive stupor. Mikey had to battle ''his'' alcoholism and drug addiction now, taking a vacation away from the band for nearly half the production. The media was also hounding MCR at this point, as the emo controversy had reached its peak. Shortly after the album was released, they embarked an exhaustive three-year-long tour that left them hating the songs they had just written so much that they were enjoying re-exploring ''Bullets''-era songs to try to make up for it. A 13-year-old fan-girl also committed suicide during this time, and Glenn Beck accused them of being occultists. This led to the problems that would later lead to the band's breakup.
** For ''Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys'', the band threw out an entire album's worth of material and started from scratch. This album, titled ''Conventional Weapons'', wouldn't see any form of release for almost four years, until a series of five singles with its planned songs came out between 2012 and 2013. Having even more bad luck with drummers, Bob Bryar parted ways with the group. The controversy surrounding the band caused them to become frustrated and attempting to aim for a more light-hearted, fun sound. However, Gerard ended up going with a rather complicated storyline anyways that the band did not entirely care for. Other members were also still sour about ''Conventional Weapons'' being ditched. After another exhaustive tour, the band were simply too burned out to keep going and broke up in 2013.
