AVA man on 'emo' suicides

Angels & Airwaves' Tom DeLonge has commented online about the recent UK suicides of rock fans, and blame pointed at My Chemical Romance.

"The same sort of thing happened to me with Blink," says the frontman, "so I can understand what it's like. We had a victim of the Columbine shootings take his life with our song on repeat. You kinda go through these situations where you blame yourself - but you can't."

pathetic.

get a life, get the fuck over yourself, and leave people who actually like these stories alone.

find something YOU like so we dont have to listen to your stuipd opinions which mean nothing to anyone.
you lonely, self centered man.

Dear god, have we not moved beyond this yet? I don't care! If people stopped whining so much the media would ignore it!

But no, now we shall have tirade of OMG! MCR R kewl and saved my life shit. Unless they physically hauled you out of a fire, they really didn't.

In other news, Soulfly are playing at Bloodstock. That's obviously less newsworthy than emo whine no. 361, though.

GET OVER YOURSELF

If you have a problem with these stories- DONT FUCKING READ THEM! we dont want to have to listen to you whine on and on about how you are sick of reading thwm. SOME of us actually do want to hear about this.

And for your information- there are other ways that a life can be destoryed without any harm coming to the baody. MCR have saved many people- just because it hasn't happened to you doesnt mean it hasnt happened to anyone else. Get a life na d leave people who care about these issues to tackle it without pillocks like you taking the piss.

Any way- I think its great tbat other people are speaking out and maybe someone will put an end to this shit press. I love MCR and they completely changed my life.

Tom has a point i mean come 'on, people dont kill themselves becuase of the music they listen to. When the media face stories like these about things like suicide they just point the finger at anything just so they can get the front pages filled. They jump to conclusions and dont get the full idea of what the lyrics and the music is actually saying. My chemical romancce had told people at countless gigs to get help if they ever feel like they have no other option but self-harm and suicide, and from a first hand exerience gerard doesnt want anyone else to go through what he has been through. At the end of the day its money in their pockets so they dont give a damn fuck about what it does to bands like my chem and blink 182. If the person who had died [ r.i.p ] lkilled themselves listening to fucking rap music would they have blamed that genre ? i think not, Just because some of they songs may sound sad and somewhat depressing to some, come as inspiration those who are suicidal to get help, and that things can get better for them. All the papers do is just want money end off, so all i can say is screw them, if they want to slate music then they should do the fucking research. and get the facts right before they say anything.

Oh and one more thing, just becuase someone killed themselves listening to a song doesnt mean that it was the problem and that it made them depressed. That song could have been one that reminded them of a lost one, their friends or just memories that they want to last forever, it could have just been held special to them.

Here we go with MCR again.

For fucks sake, they're not even active right now, yet people STILL bring them up to bitch about?

Leave them alone. People killed themselved and MCR got wrongly blamed, now AVA is saying some-thing about it.

WHY IS MCR GETTING BITCHED ABOUT AGAIN??

the battle?

Why a battle between MCR and FOB???

Surely we should have a battle between MCR, FOB, Panic at the disco, MSI, Medina Lake, Kids in glass houses and a few other selected waste of oxygen bands.... THEN.... take them to WHITE HOUSE in Washington DC, so that George W Bush can guest referee....
Once all parties are in the building and ready to tough it out we could launch a nuclear assult and take all of the useless cu*ts out at the same time!!!

OH WE CAN ALL DREAM!!!

didn't the prince of darkness himself have the same old crap levied at him years ago with his suicide solution lyrics?
"Wine is fine
But whiskey's quicker
Suicide is slow with liquor
Take a bottle drain your sorrows
Then it floods away tommorow
Await tommorow"

the more things change, the more they stay the same.

u kno what? if i hear the lines "im not afarid to keep on livng" much more im seriously going 2 go on a mass emo murdering spree. Seriously so what two lnes how of how many crappy songs, the rest of the music is majorly depressing and a couple of lines isnt gonna stop it from being depressing.
Its kinda sad how music like mcr is making kids as young as 12 think they have such a hard and depressing life and that everyone hates them
god wat happened 2 childhood, instead teenieboppers at the age of 12 r singing along to songs about suicide and death
nice huh

MCR didnt save or change your life. You changed it yourself.
It is usually said by 14 year olds who have barely had a life to change.
Get some self-esteem sorted and stop parroting that old cliche. IE Get a Grip. Its just your hormones kicking in lol

For what its worth, I am a MCR fan of many years standing, and am also an adult.

And am more concerned about the standard of grammar on this board than anything else!

Why is there so much hate for Tom DeLonge?!?

Yeah he was the main cause for the Blink182 break up, who where one of the biggest bands of our generation, and the music he wrote has influenced the majority of your lives.
You should stand up and salute the guy!
He grew out of all the punk rock stuff, and out of Blink, it's like, when you grow out of clothes for instance, where it just doesn't fit, he didn't fit anymore.

Stop being so pissed off at him for the Blink split! He is still the guy that wrote the songs you probably still listen to, and will smile in 10-20 years time when you hear the on the radio.

You asked why the people hate Delonge?

people hate Delonge because of how he changed... if he'd stayed the same after blink broke up, people woulda got over it, but he started going on about how he was the Messiah and rubbish like that... And the split with blink wasnt even done properly, he acted like a twat to his bandmates..

Tom is a complete fuck-tard anyways! Of course MCR are to blame! They know they appeal to stupid 14 year old school kids with wanky fringes covering one eye! And then they sing about suicide etc... The cock stains are completely to blame! But one less emo isn't such a bad thing... Actually they deserve a pat on the back!

p.s for all those people who are emos out there you cant hold it in talk to someone either your mom, dad or even child line or samartians ( i dunno if i have spelt that right) because you'd feel a whole lot better ^^

emos

Right, first off, K! we hear too much about my chemical romance these days and sorry but i don't see the tallent in this band. They are boring and try to shroud there music with a false front. They are emos! They dress, write and act like emos and if they weren't noone, especially the media would not associate them with being emo and most emos i know say they like my chemical romance.

Secondly i think most people who like my chemical romance are too afraid to admit that mcr are emo because they feel they will be looked down upon by media and others. Being emo isn't anything to do with lyrics or music its a way a person is feeling. For example, how can a love song suddenly make you fall in love if you haven't got a partner or someone of the opposite sex who feels the same way. It just doesn't make sense.
Most people who seem to listen to my chemical romance have depression and when you suffer from depression its very hard to deal with it, especially for young people and it really doesn't help someone by being called 'a cunt'.

Lastly, Yes we all understand we have to stand up for these suicides but there is always pain in the world, whethger iys hungar or terror we all just have to try to get on with our lives. These people don't need bands support they need medical help.

END

hey it happens

well if they are getting bullied and too chicken shit to do something about it then its there own fault. Everyone gets bullied or pressured but you have to deal with it. If a guy at school says i'm gonna punch you outside class grab a brick and wait for him then say 'yeah! You want some you bitch'. Or alternatively tell them your dad is gay and will fu*k him if they start... Just a thought! Anyways back on track, bands need to be responsible to a degree, if you know you appeal to pre teen sensative and touchy kids then you don't sing about suicide! If you worked for alco's anonymous would you drink a pint a pint in front of a patient? If you worked in a nut house would you give a loony a knife? I don't think so!

wft have people go against emos i dont see why they have to critisize us for being a little more emotional then others its unfair plus im not a fighter but get bullied for listening to bullet and panic! and other things like the way i dress. why do people think we cry all the time and yeah i know ive slit but not all emos do for fuck sake have a little sympathy for the people who actually are fucked up and need an escape from life and inconsiderate people who wouldnt give a shit if people care or not!

why should emo's get any sympathy? Suicide and self harming is the lowest form of cowardness and selfishness! I have no sympathy for them at all! If they got a grip on reality and realized they haven't even bitten into the rotten apple that is life then possibly they may notice that there are far worse things in life then the so called 'shit' they're going through to experience as well as a lot better things! Emo's need to get laid! Move to dundee you could get it for 50p out of your pocket money... Or see your local girl chav slapper who is 16 lives on the dole and has 3 kids. She will help for a kfc meal.

omg dont u dare bring bullet in2 this emo debate
they are in no way emo
whereas shit like mcr n patd are
people like you give bullet a bad name
and ye ur not putting forward a very good view of emos if ur openingly admiting to self harming
no one really said that emos just go and cry. more like they sit in the emo corner cutting their wrists and all the lil emos on here seem 2 all be sayin then same thing

the kind of music you emos listen to, promotes depression, self harming, suicide especially mcr. been there got the scars to prove it oh and a friend 10 ft under ground
you kids dont understand how much mcr plays on your minds and what it makes you think.
u think your all jus singing along harmlessly bt it fucks with your head
the sooner u stop the better

typical...

typical... Lots of 'EMO'S' or 'CU*T'S' as their more commonly and affectionately refered too have admitted to cutting theirselves, but DENY the bands they love are the reason behind this! Now they say they do it becomes they suffer and hurt inside blah...blah...blah...etc... Because they're more emotional and sensitive... I.E. EMO'S! But why did they get into the scene? Most because of the pile of sh*t bands affiliated with the scene! So either the bands have to bare some responsibility or the scene should be stopped so the little teens stop acting like lemming's and killing theirselves. And as you can't really 100% stop or end a cult, movement etc... There is only one solution! A mass cull of all 'emo' bands! Stick them all in france and nuke it! We can put britain and real music back on the map by taking france completely off it!

Who would be stupid enough to commit suicide because 'the music told me to'? yeah ok...some people do actually believe this..thats why they GET HELP. It's only wannabes that believe in all this suicide crap...and all it does is prove they don't understand the world or why suicide isn't something to lie about...or to use for attention seeking. Thats all it is 'look at me! look at me!'. It makes the people who are genuinely depressed and are considering suicide look bad. I personally somewhat dislike MCR...but how can they possibly be the only ones to blame? these 'emo' folk need to grow up...

I am an MCR fan...and yes i have been classed as an Emo
but still....even i know that Mcr are just a band that make music....its the people who cause these things....and its the way that the person interprets the music that causes them to do these things
I still think that MCR are one of the most interesting bands around atm....but i think that the media has everything wrong...and the the fucking cunts who like to rant on about this are the ones that deserve to die!

the emo thing...

emo is not a state of mind... Thats a rather pointless statement! Emo is a scene! Every generation has them... Mod's, rockers, hippies, metal heads, goth's, grunger's, chav's, emo's... The list is endless...... Unfortunately there are always some that ruin it for others! As many of you 'emo's' on here may agree... I personally hate the scene because all the bands that are in said genre spout the same crap every 5 mins about how bad life is and getting dumped, or not getting the girl you want etc... and all the emo kids i have scene or spoken too are really mopey little shits! And always complain how tough and hard their lives are! They're so young and have no clue! Wait till you work for the man and are part of the system then you'd have an idea. And i have no time or tolerance for self harmers!

Right let's get started, people listen to bands like MCR and AVA because they have no one else to turn to for help. This is exactly what I've gone through. I turned to A7X, MCR and SlipKnoT for sympathy and through their lyrics they gave me just that.

MCR are emo, I admit it. But what the hell is wrong with it!? I dont know what people have against Emo's! MCR don't write those sorts of songs to make their fans commit suicide, they write them so they can get their point across and all their anger out of their lives and thats understandable!

Emo isnt a style! It's a music Genre, people label themselves Emo because they havent a clue what it means. It's more scene. You make your own style, that's exactly what MCR did. The thick make up the (sometimes) depressing lyrics in their songs all come from their hearts and lives.

Give them a break, the girl who commited suicide listenin to MCR obviously had a reason to. RIP

Well done to Tom for sticking up for MCR! WOO! Go Tom! x x

oh well...

the fact you say tom and gerard are legends is a testiment to the fact that you have no clue! Slash, dimebag, dickenson, axl, dave lombardo, dave grohl, joey jordison... Now they ARE legends! Thats why metal is great... When your down it makes you feel... 'fu*k the world, the man, the system and any other pri*ks'. Listening to mopey sh*ts constantly moaning like hell's relentless carnal winds over and over again isn't a good idea! And none of them are legends! FOB, MCR, PANIC AT THE DISCO, A7X etc... None of then have done sod all! If they are still about in ten years time and filling out huge venues i will go myself and apologise. But i'm right on this, the only one with any chance is A7X if m shadows stops being a total bell end.

fuck ye im in total agreence with gandalf_the_black mcr will only be around for the nxt couple of yrs and then no one would have heard of them
they r talentless its prob why they write such controversial lyrics to gain attention and to appeal to emo people as they are both hated within the media
a7x will be ok if they go bac to their orginal sound and stay out of the media, the self titled is just a disappiontment they need 2 go back to waking the fallen or city of evil

Look to all you little cunts who hate MCR like 'EMOS GOE DIE YOU KNO U WANT TO '

Your just like the Daily Mail who know nothing about the band and only the stereotype that the media has put together over the last couple of years. So why dont u force yourself to listen to it and maybe just maybe you might understand that TheBlackParade does want to inflict suicide or self harming onto us.
