My Chemical Romance Charts Its First No. 1 As Fans Revisit A Decades-Old Classic
My Chemical Romance scores its first No. 1 on Billboard's Vinyl Albums chart as Three Cheers for ... More Sweet Revenge returns after a deluxe reissue. My Chemical Romance (Photo by Theo Wargo/WireImage) My Chemical Romance recently released a special deluxe edition of its album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, turning the decades-old effort into a bestselling title once more. Fans of the beloved rock group rushed to pick up the anniversary edition of the groundbreaking set, and sales skyrocketed. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge returns to several Billboard charts this week, and even manages to lead some of the tallies it reaches. Its ascent brings My Chemical Romance back to the top spot on a multitude of rankings, and as it reappears, the set becomes the band its first champion on one particularly competitive tally. My Chemical Romance's First Vinyl No. 1 Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge leads the Vinyl Albums chart this week. The title hits No. 1 for the first time, doing so seven weeks into its scattered history on the vinyl-exclusive roster. This week marks the first time My Chemical Romance has reached the summit on the Vinyl Albums chart, as Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge finally climbs to the top. My Chemical Romance Previously Peaked at No. 2 Previously, the group missed out on the throne by just a single spot on more than one occasion. In October 2015, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love reached its runner-up peak position. A year later, The Black Parade stalled in the same No. 2 slot. Two other titles by My Chemical Romance — Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys and Life on the Murder Scene — both cracked the top 10 on the vinyl ranking as well. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge's Sales Explode Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge sold 37,000 copies in the U.S. last week, according to Luminate, which is a large enough figure to make it the second-bestselling title in the country. That sum is up dramatically from the period before it was re-released as a deluxe edition, when it managed only about 1,200 pure purchases. My Chemical Romance Reaches New Peaks on Multiple Charts All of those sales help push My Chemical Romance's sophomore set to new peaks on half a dozen Billboard tallies. As it returns to each and every one of them, the project hits No. 1 not just on the Vinyl Albums list, but also on the Top Rock & Alternative Albums, Top Rock Albums, and Top Alternative Albums tallies. The set, which was once a cult classic, but now should be regarded simply as a hugely successful release, also breaks into the top 10 on the Billboard 200.

My Chemical Romance Charts Its First Top 10 Album With A 20-Year-Old Release
My Chemical Romance first made a name for itself in the alternative rock underground with its debut album, I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, but it wasn't until the 2004 release of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge that the act became widely known. That full-length is back in the spotlight thanks to a special anniversary re-release — one that helps the group score a significant new win. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge appears on half a dozen charts in the United Kingdom this week. It debuts on three of them, returns to two, and soars on the last ranking. The decades-old set opens at No. 5 on the Official Albums Sales chart, standing out as the fifth bestselling title in the country as it arrives. The project becomes My Chemical Romance's first top 10 on that tally. Throughout the years, My Chemical Romance has only sent three projects to the Official Albums Sales chart. The group came close to reaching the uppermost region in October 2016, when The Black Parade/Living With Ghosts debuted and peaked at No. 11. During the same tracking week, the standard version of The Black Parade also launched. That set would go on to spend four frames on the tally, but only climb as high as No. 83. The same project starts one spot higher on the Official Vinyl Albums chart, as Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge kicks off its time on that format-specific ranking at No. 4. It earns the band a second career top 10 and brings the group to a brand new high point on that format-focused list. Interestingly, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge also brings the group to a new career low on the Official Album Downloads chart, the third and final roster where the set debuts. The title barely manages to become a top 40 bestseller on platforms like iTunes, launching at No. 39. Previously, that distinction was held by May Death Never Stop You, which spent a single turn at No. 32. The re-released effort reenters both the Official Physical Albums and Official Albums charts, coming in at Nos. 5 and 9, respectively. Those are new peak positions for the title on those rosters. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge was only found on one of these six tallies just a few days ago, before the impact of its twentieth anniversary reissue could be seen. My Chemical Romance was living at No. 11 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart, but now, the early career win rockets to No. 1, earning a third turn on the throne.

My Chemical Romance's Classic Hits No. 1 For The First Time In Two Decades
My Chemical Romance returns to No. 1 on the U.K.'s Official Rock & Metal Albums chart with Three ... More Cheers for Sweet Revenge, nearly 20 years after its first peak. LONDON - NOVEMBER 05: My Chemical Romance posed in London on November 05 2005. L - R Ray Toro, Mikey Way, Gerard Way, Frank Iero, Bob Bryar (Photo by Naki/Redferns) My Chemical Romance helped bring a developing subgenre of rock music known as emo to the public consciousness in the mid-aughts with its album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. The hardcore effort was filled with clever lyrics, dark imagery, and plenty of angst that appealed to a young audience. The group quickly became global superstars thanks to the project, which produced singles like "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" and "Helena." This week, the set is a major smash in the United Kingdom again, following a special re-release that has turned it into a bestselling title and helped the project climb back to the top. In early June, a deluxe edition of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge was released, and fans picked it up in large numbers. The set included all of the original tunes, remixed versions of them, and several previously unreleased live recordings from the group. That proved to be enough to convince thousands to pick up a copy — though My Chemical Romance's fanbase is so strong that it probably wouldn't have taken much for the title to sell well again. This frame, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge rockets from No. 11 to No. 1 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart. The title has now spent 333 weeks on the list of the bestselling efforts in those genres, and just three of those have been at No. 1. The effort hadn't been seen on the throne of the rock ranking since May 2005, just a little over two decades ago, when it earned almost back-to-back stays at the summit. At the same time that Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge returns to No. 1 — its all-time peak on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart — the full-length reaches a new high point on two additional tallies. My Chemical Romance pushes its sophomore set back onto both the Official Physical Albums and Official Albums rosters. The project reappears at Nos. 5 and 9, respectively, which mark new best showings for the effort. This week is the first for Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge inside the top 10 on both of those rankings. My Chemical Romance earns its third placement inside that region on the Official Physical Albums chart and its second-ever on the Official Albums ranking, which lists the most consumed full-lengths and EPs in the nation.
