1. This is a promotional poster for My
Chemical Romance’s album Danger Days:
the true lives of fabulous killjoys. The song
we have chosen, ‘Summertime’, is from this
album.
For this album, the band completely remade
their image. They made this a concept
album, the concept being based around the
lives of the four Fabulous Killjoys; ‘Party
Poison’ (Gerard Way), ‘Kobra Kid’ (Mikey
Way), ‘Jet Star’ (Ray Toro), and ‘Fun Ghoul’
(Frank Iero). The story is set in 2019 in post-
apocalyptic California, where they are
fighting against the evil corporation Better
Living Industries.

first track on the
album: Look
Alive, Sunshine.
‘Look alive,
sunshine. 109 in
the sky but the pigs wont quit,
you're here with me Dr. Death Defy.
I’ll be your surgeon, your Procter,
your helicopter. Open out the
slaughter medic sound to keep live.
A system failure for the masses,
anti-matter for the master plan.
Louder than God’s revolver and
twice as shiny. This ones for all you
rock and rollers, all you crash
queens and motor babies. Listen
up! The future is bulletproof. Its
time to do it now, and do it loud.
Killjoys, make some noise!’
