If I really really REALLY like My Chemical Romance (Oh, hush. Stop giving me that look.), what other bands would you recommend to me?
I've had "Helena" stuck in my head for a few days now after hearing it on the radio a couple times. They do remind me of other bands (in that before I knew it was them, I couldn't remember who it was by but thought I knew), but I can't think of which. For some reason, The Used is coming to mind, but I haven't heard but one song by them a long time ago and I didn't really like it, so I think they may just be connected temporally.
Also, tina, I noticed you were getting into Ladytron back in...November. I love Ladytron a whole lot. If you're still interested, nearly every track on 604 is great ("Playgirl" was my first and the one that hooked me), and I second Broom's rec of "Seventeen," and I highly highly recommend "Blue Jeans," which is just gorgeous.
Oh, and I figure people in here might care: I bought the Sneaker Pimps' Becoming X the other day at Half-Price Books. Curse me for going ten years without "Low Place Like Home."
