Rock band Vampires Everywhere! has shared a cover of My Chemical Romance’s anthem “Welcome to the Black Parade” via Cleopatra Records. The cover comes swiftly behind the band’s recently released visualizer for “Another Funeral Song” from its newest full-length record, “The Devil Made Me Do It.”
“I never thought in a million years I would ever attempt to cover a My Chemical Romance song!” vocalist Michael Vampire said. “When I was approached by Cleopatra Records to pick a song for their upcoming compilation, I knew I had to take a shot in the dark and give it a whirl. I am beyond excited on how the song turned out. I wanted to stick to the compilation format of dark-wave vibes, and I think I found a happy medium achieving that. Big shout out to Paul Bartolome of Asking Alexandria for producing the track and Mikey Dez for recording my vocals.”
Discussing “Another Funeral Song,” Michael Vampire said: “I wanted to create a song that would resonate with people’s desires to be heard in a relationship. Unfortunately, many people have a hard time listening rather than actually taking in what someone has to say. It’s honestly a horrible feeling & almost feels like you’re grieving that person as your emotions slowly slip into oblivion. One could say it’s ‘Another Funeral Song’ … Like most people, I’ve been in many situations like this, and the worst part is I swam in this toxic sludge hoping it would change. The situation did not change & I decided to leave.”

“I wanted more than anything to have a collective body of work of all my little successes over the last year,” Michael Vampire said. “I needed to feel something. I needed fans to have something that they could be proud of owning and listening to over and over again. So after many weed induced dreams I came to the conclusion that I needed to collect my favorite songs and put them together to create one master version. However, being the OCD nut that I am, I could not be happy enough with just that! I had some lyrics in me that I needed to get out … thus creating ‘Antichrist’ and ‘Another Funeral Song,’ which in my opinion completes the story I’m trying to tell. Because this idea spawned from within my dreams it was only right to name it ‘The Devil Made Me Do It.'”
