I do t write reviews very much, but when I I got this vinyl record I was surprised and was expecting a vinyl sleeve with the cover on it, but instead I got a clear sleeve with the cover on the disc, Wich is way cool. And not to mention that this vinyl sounds incredible, one of the best albums I have heard.

The media could not be loaded. It just comes with a clear sleeve and the record inside. Only reason im not returning is because the record itself looks awesome it has the alternative cover on side a and the 4 band members in their black parade outfits and makeup on side b. Sounds great no warping and cool looking record, but if youre into having the actual cover art than buy a different version.

This is the picture disk WITHOUT the album cover that is pictured. The picture disk is awesome but I wanted the album cover that was pictured. Otherwise I'd give it 5 stars

If anyone knows My Chemical Romance, their reviews will be mixed on this. Long time fans will reckon for the days of "Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge" which was a good album. However, "The Black Parade" takes on the sound of a major rock opera, produced by Rob Covallo (same man that produced Green Day's "American Idiot"). If you're into BIG rock sounds and vocals and even a storyline, this album is for you. I'm sad to say that I paid extra money expecting the slip cover like my old copy had. What's done is done. I recommend buying the $9.96 version and getting the same thing. This album does contain explicit lyrics and language but an edited version is also available.

The album is awesome and sounds great. Be sure to read the description closely as I did not realize there was no standard album cover with this. It does however arrive in a clear plastic cover that works fine but would be nicer in a standard album cover
