My vote goes to 'The Organ Grinder', solely because I like it. Or 'A Masters In Reverse Psychology'.

I'm Afraid of 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.'

Not a very remarkable song but you could do amazing things with it.

'cause this is one of my favorite bands, a suggested song or two from each album:
exorcist - "a caucus race"
who will survive - "end of the line" / "three men hanging"
in bocca - "the big sleep"
red of tooth - "ash" (slowed/stripped down, though), "the black spot" (i could imagine a fucking haunting solo piano version of this)

p.s. i don't mean DO a song or two off each album, i just have a hard time picking ONE.

I'll have a listen to a few of their songs and put in my two cents later. :)

Incidentally, 'Murder By Death' is one of the coolest names for a band ever.

Can't listen right now, have no idea what the band sounds like (Rihanna-like?)

Based on lyrics alone:

"Dead Men and Sinners"
"You are the last dragon (you possess the power of glow)"
"Killbot 2000"
"Canyon Inn Room 16"

never heard of them before (thanks I love hearing new stuff). So far I'm definitely liking 'Until Morale Improves the Beatings Will Continue', 'I'm Afraid of Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe' and 'Sometimes the Line Walks You'. There are loads I have yet to listen to though.

I've had a good listen to a few now. I'm glad I did because they are seriously good. I'd recommend:

Steal Away
Killbot 2000
The Devil In Mexico (I was shocked to discover Gerard Way features but not even that lets it down :p)
