My Chemical Romance enthusiasts are in a frenzy following a recent teaser shared by renowned photographer John McMurtrie, celebrated for his work with Iron Maiden and other rock icons. On February 12, McMurtrie unveiled a post hinting at a “Valentine’s MCR treat” slated for February 14. The teaser features live audio from “Helena,” a track from the band’s acclaimed album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.
A subsequent post by McMurtrie showcased an illustration of a red heart accompanied by the song “To The End,” another gem from the same album. Given McMurtrie’s history with the band, including a notable 2005 photoshoot, fans are speculating that the Valentine’s surprise might be a special photograph featuring frontman Gerard Way and guitarist Frank Iero.
The fanbase is buzzing with excitement, with many referencing the term “Frerard,” a nickname derived from the duo’s occasional onstage kisses during performances in the mid-2000s. One eager fan commented, “Ok what if they are real professional photos of gee n frank kissing pls if I see them in one more pixel I did I’m screaming.”
As Valentine’s Day approaches, anticipation builds among My Chemical Romance devotees, eager to discover the nature of this nostalgic treat.
