Chemical Reaction: The Reissue of The Black Parade Vies for #1
The 20th anniversary edition of My Chemical Romance’s The Black Parade (Warner) is marching toward a first-week total in the 60-65k range. At the moment, that appears to be the same range as Interscope’s Olivia Rodrigo, who topped last week’s chart. Are we looking at a battle for #1?
We note that the beloved alternative troupe is in the middle of a five-night stand at the Hollywood Bowl that concludes on Halloween. If you live in the neighborhood and are trying to drive somewhere, consider not doing that.
Meanwhile, Anderson .Paak & Cordae (APESHIT/Mass Appeal/EMPIRE) target the Top 10 with an opening frame of 33-38k for their inventive collaboration Heavy Is the Crown.
We now return you to chapter 37 of Dear Leader’s latest Truth Social post.
