Life on the Murder Scene

Untitled

Life on the Murder Scene is the first compilation 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.

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 3 of their videos with the behind-the-scenes 'Making Of...' for each one. The cover features live versions of the characters that appear on the cover of Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.

About the DVD

The DVD shows the life of My Chemical Romance and interviews them as they flashback and tell their life stories from when they were young, the formation of My Chemical Romance and their rise to fame.

The video documentary first introduces each member of My Chemical Romance and then explains the very first recording and show. The DVD then covers their story of success, Gerard's fall as well as his sobering, their influences, tours, and the very beginning of ideas for the then not-yet-named The Black Parade.

The album has seen limited 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.
