The Black Parade

The Black Parade is the My Chemical Romance album whose 20th-anniversary world tour frames the emo segment in Working memory: the surprising decline of dementia. The source uses the tour to show that mid-2000s emo material can return as stadium spectacle and intergenerational fan culture.

The album’s role in the wiki is source-scoped: it is the cultural anchor that makes Emo Revival Identity Culture concrete through costumes, theatrical staging, and demand at large venues.
