In a move that has emo kids of all ages dusting off their eyeliner and leather jackets, My Chemical Romance has announced their “Long Live The Black Parade” tour across Asia. The legendary emo/rock outfit will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of their magnum opus by performing the album in its entirety—proving that emo is not only not dead, it’s planning a massive comeback.

The tour kicks off on April 18, 2026, at Paradise City Culture Park in Incheon, South Korea, before the band brings their theatrical brand of emotional devastation to Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia through early May. Filipino fans, who last saw the band in the country over a decade ago, can finally prepare for the emotional catharsis they’ve been denied for years.

“The Black Parade” stands as one of the most influential concept albums of the 2000s, a dark operatic journey through death and reflection that defined a generation of alternative music. Its anthem “Welcome to the Black Parade” became the “Bohemian Rhapsody” for millennials who preferred their piano ballads with a side of existential crisis.

From what we’ve heard, fans can expect the full theatrical experience—the makeup, the costumes, the melodrama—that made MCR cultural icons. The Jakarta show will be part of the Hammersonic Festival, adding an extra layer of rock festival energy to the tour’s finale.

While ticket prices haven’t been announced, you might want to start saving now, because these shows will sell out faster than black nail polish at a Hot Topic closing sale.

The tour represents more than just concerts—it’s a cultural resurrection of an era when wearing your emotional damage on your sleeve (preferably a black one) wasn’t just accepted, it was celebrated. The Black Parade marches on, and apparently, it’s heading East.

And if it’s been a minute since you’ve last belted out the lyrics to every song on the album, here it is below to get you primed and ready for the tour to come.
