My Chemical Romance announce split after 12 years
US rockers My Chemical Romance have announced they are splitting up .
The New Jersey group formed in 2001 and have released four albums together.
They posted a message on their website which said: "Being in this band for the past 12 years has been a true blessing (блаженство/счастье).
"We've gotten to go places we never knew we would.
"We've been able to see and experience things we never imagined possible."
The message continued: "We've shared the stage with people we admire, people we look up to (уважать), and best of all, our friends.
"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."
Frontman Gerard Way also tweeted: "Beyond any sadness, what I feel the most is pride."
The band's 2005 record The Black Parade reached number two in the UK album chart and the accompanying track Welcome to the Black Parade made it to number one in the singles chart.
In 2011 the group played Radio 1's Big Weekend in Carlisle, and headlined Reading and Leeds festivals where they were joined on stage by Queen guitarist Brian May.
Later in the year, they sacked (уволить) their drummer Michael Pedicone, after accusing(обвинять) him of stealing from them.
He later admitted to making a "tremendous mistake".
Questions: 1) How old is "My Chemical Romance"? 2) What was in that message on their website? 3) Who is Gerard Way? 4) What did Gerard Way tweet? 5) What's the name of their ex-drummer?
I'm fond of music. This year is very productive for music. A lot of music bands and singers came back after their breaks. I like some of My Chemical Romance's songs. It's a pity to hear such sad news. I hope that after several years they'll come back with a new album.
