Life on the Murder Scene is the first live album by New Jersey quintet My Chemical Romance. It was released on March 21, 2006 (see 2006 in music). The release includes 3-discs (2 DVDs and 1 CD) of the whole history documenting the band from the start to present. Life on the Murder Scene is a predominantly live album, but also includes two demo tracks and a previously unreleased track. Models Jamisin Matthews and Jaime Andrews portray the demolition couple in cover photo, booklet, packaging, dvd art, and dvd menues.
One DVD documents the band on the road in the form of a diary and the other covers live footage, AOL Sessions, MTV $2 Bill performance, and 4 of their videos with the behind-the-scenes 'Making Of...' for three of them. The cover features a live version of "Demolition Lovers II" (cover of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge).
The album has seen decent success in Australia, peaking at #2 on the ARIA Top 40 DVD Chart, and also in the U.S., peaking at #30 on the Billboard 200 and #1 on the Heetseekers.[citation needed]
