My Chemical Romance (also known as My Chem and MCR) is an American rock band from New Jersey, formed in 2001 by Gerard Way and ex-member Matt Pelissier, who plays drums on the first two records. Its current members include Gerard Way (vocals), Ray Toro (guitar), Frank Iero (guitar), Mikey Way (bass), and Bob Bryar (drums). Shortly after forming, the band signed to Eyeball Records and released their debut album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love in 2002. They signed with Reprise Records the next year and released their major label debut, "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge", in 2004. The album was a major and surprising commercial success, selling over two million copies due in part to the success of the singles "Helena", "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)", and "The Ghost of You".
