Strat and Shark

Another week, another Tuesday. Except that this Tuesday is a treat. This Tuesday on Tumblr is brought to you by @altpress, who have kindly shared some nostalgic and some never-before-seen images of Tumblr's favorite band, My Chemical Romance. 

We all know how pivotal a moment 2004 was—the birth of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. An obsession with swooped bangs and skinny jeans. The seep of emo music and aesthetics across the world.

So, please enjoy these images from the shoot of MCR's 2004 December cover debut for Alternative Press Issue 197, photographed by Chapman Baehler. For more archival content of your favorite artists from the before times, head over to tumblr.com/altpress.

Hi! We're introducing Important Blue Internet Checkmarks here on Tumblr. They're a steal at $7.99—that's cheaper than some other places, when you consider that you get not one but TWO checkmarks for your blog on web only (for now). Why, you ask? Why not? Nothing matters! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We felt morally obligated to help you. That's why we made these Important Blue Internet Checkmark Stickers for $3 and Important Blue Internet Checkmark enamel pins for $6. Investing in this is investing in your future. It's the most financially sound investment you can make this fiscal quarter. Also, as a reminder: Nothing matters! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
