Introduction by Billy Fields from the Warner Music Group
My Chemical Romance's "The Black Parade (20th Anniversary One Step Audiophile Edition)" includes the original album plus a live performance of "Someone Out There Loves You," recorded at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ on October 24, 2007. The original album has been sequenced over four sides of the double LP to maximize audio quality.
Released in October 2006, The Black Parade follows The Patient through his reflections on life and his passage into the afterlife, built on the concept that death visits people in the form of their earliest cherished memory.
Pressed as a double LP on Neotech VR900-D2 180g vinyl, cut from the original analog master tapes. Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. One-Step process by Dorin Sauerbier at Record Technology, Inc. Limited edition of 7,000 numbered copies.
Housed in a numbered slipcase with a gatefold jacket, new art insert, two printed inner sleeves and RTI rice-paper inners.
