Is My Chemical Romance okay?

It only took 36 seconds for the earth beneath My Chemical Romance fans to shake on Wednesday morning.

The alternative pop rock band, known for garnering a cult-like following between forming in 2001 and separating in 2013, released a vague, but discussion-inspiring video across social media platforms just before 11 a.m.

In the video, a white flag printed with a decorative black cross waves in time to the musical introduction from “Welcome to the Black Parade,” MCR’s 2006 hit radio single. The last frames of the video fade to reveal “9/23/16” in the center of the screen.

No announcement came along with the video, leaving viewers to speculate what the date could mean. Reunion rumors have already run rampant throughout the fanbase – especially because the ten year anniversary of “Welcome to the Black Parade” being released falls exactly a month after the date in the video.

Whether a full reunion, anniversary tour, surprise musical release or other awaits the world of music in September, it’s safe to say MCR fans will be hanging on any and all status updates from here on out.
