The album slaps from start to finish. If MCR didn’t sign to a major label and disbanded, that album would’ve gained a cult following by the “real emo” 4chaners
It’s a sick album and I think it would have gained a cult following but probably not with Real Emos, they were into Sunny Day Real Estate and shoegazy stuff at the time. MCR takes a bit from a lot of different places, id call em a pop punk band primarily but they have aspects of metal primarily and some goth and a bit of emo musically. Then they also wanted to be Queen. There is for sure some bits inspired by the mess of what was referred to as emoji even prior to them muddying it up even more through no fault of their own. But mostly I hear Sisters of Mercy mixed with Green Day
