FUSE TV - Listen Now! The Complete Guide to Gerard Way's Debut Solo Album, 'Hesitant Alien'
The Buildup: My Chemical Romance's Gerard Way is an Anglophile. At least, he is now! He released a borderline shoegaze solo song in June, he announced that he will make his solo debut at Reading & Leeds, he's covered Pulp's "Common People," and now he's given his first extensive solo interview to NME.
Way is the first to admit it, too. "The whole thing largely feels like a British album," the singer said in regards to his latest venture. "I was able to bring out my Britpop influences tremendously this time. That was really exciting for me. I'd chase that stuff in My Chemical Romance ... now I was able to really draw out what I loved about Supergrass, the stuff I loved about Blur, the stuff that I loved about Pulp, especially This Is Hardcore, that album. The stuff I loved about Lush, Elastica, it's all in there. Even older stuff like Wire, Gang of Four." Watch the interview below!
