MCR Decibel Review
Millions of people who lives in mega-cities,listen new music leaving behind old traditions. Mark is not only a powerful singer,not so far away from Glenn Danzig & Lynn Turner he have an old rock tradition, Basically he preserve what we call rock. Let's say, i'm a new fan Of Mark Duda & Handful. It was way back in 2006 when i decided to Create this project because rock for me is an old cultural tradition. I hate the new music scene. Who knows, maybe in 10 years we will rock together in drunken revelry and rekindle an age-old tradition… many times a good record has been reminded after 20 years... the new music is old after 3 weeks. So we play rock...We let other people let themselves be carried away by fashion and trends.
1) BETTER A Déjà vu all over again ....HAHAHA
2) When a Grindcore extreme magazine have the time for rock'n roll ....
3) Black celebration celebrate that the "world is black" Never knew Depeche mode
4) English is not the same of American.Who wrote lyrics is born In New Jersey!!
5) ITS NOT SELF RELEASED BUT OUT FROM A 2 DIFFERENT GERMAN LABELS.

Black Celebration
Déjà vu all over again | self-released
The pitch was simple: “MCR, Black Celebration.” Wait, Gerard Way is doing a note-by-note Depeche Mode covers album? Intriguing! With guest star John Garcia, formerly of Kyuss? Weird! And it’s self-released? How punk!
But no. MCR is short for Mad City Rockers, a straight-ahead rock ‘n’ roll group with a transcontinental pedigree; the band members hail from such exotic locales as Tokyo, Rome, London and, ahem, New Jersey. As their web page explains: “Rock is not ‘dead.metal more’ extreme explores and develops territories unknown to us experiencing new frontiers but we have yet something to say in the way we use to call: Traditional!” (Apparently, English is not the band’s strength.)
So, let’s translate. MCR are “rawk.” The title track borrows the opening riffage from AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck,” adds a hint of Who bombast and features singer Mark Duda trying out his best Ian Astbury, right down to the lame-o pseudo-shaman lyrics (“a black celebration, mama, dancing on my grave”). Then there’s some Southern rock touches (see “Stronger,” featuring Garcia), a decent ballad (“Set in My Ways,” which would sound epic on any classic rock station between Frampton and Skynyrd) and more AC/DC homages (“Fix My Love”).
There’s no real need for this album, especially if you own Back in Black or Electric. But considering that the Cult currently suck and Angus & co. only release an album now once a decade (and only at Walmart), Black Celebration is a fine reminder that a few good/plundered riffs is all a band really needs.
