My Chemical Romance proudly announce Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge (Deluxe Edition), an expanded edition of their 3x-platinum certified sophomore album, out on June 6th, 2025 – exactly 21 years to the original release date. The Deluxe Edition is remixed and remastered and will be available on CD, multiple colored vinyl variants, including a stunning zoetrope 2LP, and digitally. The 2 LP vinyl formats are 3-sided, with Side 4 boasting a special etching, making them collector’s items for the MCRmy.
To commemorate the band’s beloved 2004 album, Grammy Award-winning producer Rich Costey has done new mixes for the Deluxe Edition. It is also presented with brand new artwork. The collection features four bonus tracks recorded for BBC in 2005: previously unreleased live versions of “I’m Not Okay (I Promise),” “Helena,” and “The Ghost Of You,” plus a live take on “You Know What They Do to Guys Like Us in Prison” – originally released as a B-side on the limited edition UK CD single of “I’m Not Okay (I Promise).” Full track listings are below.
The first bonus track – “I’m Not OK (I Promise) [Live for BBC Radio 1’s “The Lock Up”, 2005]” – is available digitally now. Additionally, the official music video for “I’m Not OK (I Promise)” has been film restored. Scroll down to watch.

Powered by signature generational anthems such as “Helena” (4x-platinum), “I’m Not Okay (I Promise)” (3x-platinum),“The Ghost Of You” (platinum), “Thank You For The Venom” (gold), and “You Know What They Do to Guys Like Us in Prison” (gold), the record emerged as a commercial and critical high watermark for the band, garnering a platinum-certification less than a year after its release. Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge redefined the 21st-century rock genre and catapulted MCR into global stardom. Rolling Stone touted it on the “40 Greatest Emo Albums Of All Time”, proclaiming the band’s “purposeful revolution started here. The record landed on Spin’s “The 300 Best Albums of the Past 30 Years (1985–2014)” list and NME’s “20 Emo Albums That Have Resolutely Stood The Test Of Time” list. Alternative Press hailed it as their “best album” and “the definitive MCR LP from their discography.” Not to mention, Pitchfork described it as “an operatic pop-rock behemoth that became an icon for outcasts,” attesting that “My Chemical Romance thrived because they came to the realization that emotional outcasts deserved something to cheer for, even if their victories were imaginary.” To date, the record has sold over 7 million copies worldwide.
