My Chemical Romance Announce Split

My Chemical Romance have posted a message on their site saying they’ve broken up. There’s a quick sweep of nostalgia — “We’ve gotten to go places we never knew we would. We’ve been able to see and experience things we never imagined possible” — followed by a no-explanations-right-now kicker: “And now, like all great things, it has come time for it to end. Thanks for all of your support, and for being part of the adventure.” The New Jersey rockers released four studio albums; 2006’s The Black Parade is still solid. Update: Here are 2,200 mystical words from front man Gerard Way, ostensibly explaining the breakup.
