My Chemical Romance's Album Hits A New All-Time High
The outfit would split up just a few years later, but The Black Parade is still present on a number of charts in the United Kingdom to this day. The My Chemical Romance set is on the rise this frame, and it's a greater sales success than ever before.
The Black Parade Reaches a New Peak
The Black Parade jumps 13 spaces north on the Official Album Sales chart, which ranks the bestselling full-lengths and EPs throughout the U.K. on any format. My Chemical Romance brings its years-old project to a never-before-seen high point as purchases increase.
The Black Parade Debuted Nearly a Decade Ago
The set first launched on the Official Album Sales chart in October 2016, when the My Chemical Romance project opened at No. 91, repeated in that position, and then disappeared. In 2022, the title returned and reached new highs two weeks in a row, and then once again vanished. Now, The Black Parade has been present on the Official Album Sales ranking for two turns in a row, and the current one marks the title's most impressive yet.
My Chemical Romance's Album Climbs Everywhere
The same rock collection also climbs on two other tallies in the U.K. My Chemical Romance nearly pushes the title back into the highest tier on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart, as The Black Parade lifts from No. 13 to No. 12. At the same time, it finds its way to No. 70 on the Official Physical Albums tally — the same position it lands in on the general sales roster.
The Black Parade's Tenure on Multiple Tallies
While The Black Parade has only spent half a dozen frames on the Official Album Sales chart, it's enjoyed a much longer lifespan on the other two rankings where it can currently be found. The Black Parade is up to 69 frames on the Official Physical Albums list — 10 times as long as its sales roster run — and more than 640 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums list. That means The Black Parade has managed a 100-times longer tenure on the genre-specific list than on the ranking of the bestselling titles of any style, language, or format in the U.K.
Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge and The Black Parade
My Chemical Romance occupies two spaces on all three charts this week. As The Black Parade climbs, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, the group's breakout set, declines. The two titles sit next to one another on the Official Physical Albums roster, while Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge does live inside the top 10 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart.

Game Pass just added three unbelievable games to play this weekend (August 22-24)
The world of Xbox is blowing up right now, in a good way. Team green showed up in a big way at Gamescom, not only with new footage for games like The Outer Worlds 2, but a ton of details about the ROG Xbox Ally X, including the release date. While the lack of any price or preorder information is a bummer, you can at least count on it being a fantastic way to play your Game Pass games. You won't have it this weekend, though, but the service has dropped three unbelievable games that you shouldn't wait to jump into. We've got one of the best JRPGs of all time, a fast and furious roguelite FPS, and…well, something completely different to round out the list. Whatever you're craving this weekend, one of these three killer titles will have what you're looking for. Persona 4 Golden The original Persona 4 was when the series started to really take off in the West. Persona 5 and Metaphor: Refantazio drew even more attention, and Persona 3: Reload gave new fans an easy way to experience an older entry. Persona 4 Golden isn't a remake — we're getting that later — but an enhanced and expanded edition of what many fans consider to be the strongest entry in the series. You'll feel right at home with the combat system if you've played any other Atlus game, but the story and characters are on another level. It is almost impossible not to fall in love with at least one character, and the mystery remains gripping throughout the entire game. This is a long one, so you'll need a few weekends to get through it, but taking a big first bite over the next few days is the perfect way to start. Recommended Videos Persona 4 Golden is available now on PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC. Void/Breaker Launching directly onto Game Pass, Void/Breaker is a game that traps you in an endless loop, fighting against rogue AI over and over again. The premise alone might be a bit cathartic for some who are sick of all the AI talk lately, but everyone will enjoy the way the game plays. As an FPS, few games nail just how good it feels to move and shoot the way Void/Breaker does. Each weapon feels unique, punchy, and powerful. That feeling is enhanced both by the ways you can enhance your guns during a run, plus by the dynamic destruction on each stage. Being a roguelike, each run presents new choices and challenges to make it a blast to play for one hour or five. Void/Breaker is available now on PC. Goat Simulator Remastered Is it a meme game? Yeah, kinda, but Goat Simulator Remastered does have more to laugh at than the concept. Don't go into this game thinking you'll get a deep message or a game with a ton of mechanical depth, but treat it more like a fun little sandbox and you'll have a blast. There are several areas to explore with a laundry list of objectives to complete if you want, but even more hidden objectives and easter eggs to discover if you're creative. This is a game that wants you to embrace chaos and just let off some steam messing around. It's the perfect game just to turn your brain off and have fun with, and who doesn't need a game like that every now and then? Goat Simulator Remastered is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Who is Noel Clarke?
Born in London, Noel Clarke was raised by his mother, a nurse. He studied media and took classes at London's Actors Centre before making his debut in the 1999 Channel 4 TV series Metrosexuality. In 2003, he won the Most Promising Performer award at the Olivier Awards for his performance in Where Do We Live at the Royal Court Theatre, and then significantly widened his fan base by playing Billie Piper's boyfriend, Mickey Smith, in Doctor Who. He also gained fame as Wyman Norris in Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, before later writing and starring in the acclaimed film trilogy Kidulthood, Adulthood and Brotherhood, directing two of them. He co-founded his own production company, Unstoppable Entertainment, in 2007, which has produced films including Jessica Hynes's directorial debut, The Fight, and 10×10, directed by Suzi Ewing and starring Luke Evans and Kelly Reilly. He then won the Bafta rising star award in 2009, crediting the award for his long career. In 2015, Clarke's former friend Adam Deacon was given a restraining order following hundreds of abusive posts aimed at Clarke on Instagram and Twitter, after a row over the title of Deacon's hit 2011 film Anuvahood. In 2018, Unstoppable Entertainment joined forces with All3Media and launched Unstoppable Film and Television to expand their remit to include television, which led to the launch of Sky One drama Bulletproof, in which he starred prior to the allegations coming to light. Bafta then awarded him the outstanding British contribution to cinema prize in April 2021, but this and Clarke's membership of the academy were suspended after the allegations against him were published by the Guardian. Clarke dropped legal action against the academy in 2022, but launched a libel claim against Guardian News & Media (GNM) the same year. During the High Court trial earlier this year, Clarke appeared visibly emotional as he claimed the publisher had 'smashed my life'. He said: 'They have smashed my life for four years with this rubbish, this nonsense. Four years.' He continued: 'I did not do this, I would not do this. I have got children. This is not true.' He later said that while he was 'a flawed guy', he added: 'The reason I stand here four years later is I am not what they have branded me.'

Ava Max Addresses Longtime Lady Gaga Comparisons in New Leaked Song Lyrics
The "Sweet But Psycho" singer's new album 'Don't Click Play' is due out on Friday, Aug. 22 NEED TO KNOW Ava Max addresses being compared to Lady Gaga in a leaked snippet from her new album The "Sweet But Psycho" singer name dropped one of the 14-time Grammy winner's earlier tracks, "Poker Face" Don't Click Play is available to stream on Friday, Aug. 22 Ava Max is addressing those Lady Gaga comparisons in her new album. In a snippet leaked online earlier this week of Max's new album's title track "Don't Click Play," Max, 31, appears to reference Gaga, 39, and how she has been compared to the 14-time Grammy winner. "She samples, singing Gaga imitations/Can't kings and queens look good with poker faces?" Max sings in the leaked clip, referring to her song "Kings and Queens" and Gaga's "Poker Face," respectively. "But I'm loving myself even if you hate it." Other tracks on Max's upcoming album include her already-released singles "Lovin Myself," "Lost Your Faith" and "Wet Hot American Summer. "How Can I Dance," "Take My Call," "Skin in the Game," and 'World's Smallest Violin" are also featured on the new record. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Max, whose real name is Amanda Ava Koci, spoke about online commentary in the past. Although it was "kind of mean," she found the Gaga comparisons complementary. "No matter how many haters there are out there, or people who want to bring you down — or people who think I'm a Lady Gaga comparison, which is huuuh-larious," she told NYLON in 2023. "Who doesn't love Gaga?! I can't help that I look like this. I was born the way I was born too! I can't help that I'm 5-foot-2 as well," she continued, also noting that comparisons to other pop stars didn't stop when she changed the color of her hair. "Like what do they want me to do, dye my hair black?! I did that, and then they started comparing me to Dua [Lipa]! You can't win." In May, Max spoke to PEOPLE about how she found inspiration for Don't Click Play — or, rather, where she didn't. "I become a hermit, to be honest, when I'm making music," she explained. "I try not to let too many things influence me because I want it to come from my heart, and I want it to come from the inside of my brain where it's just, 'Who am I at the end of the day?' I don't want to get too influenced." "The thing is, I'm going back to my roots on this album," she continued. "I feel like there's a lot of Kings & Queens feeling songs on the album. It's almost like going back to how I started and my love for pop music, really." The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! Max said she let online comments get to her in the past two years, and "changed who I was for other people." "I took away the Max Cut essentially because people in the industry didn't like it," she said. Since the people she had been working with didn't like it, she removed it. "Then, I realized that it was 1% of the population that didn't like it, and I loved it. I was like, 'Wait. The masses love it, and it doesn't make any sense for me to get rid of something when I feel so strongly about it.' " The "Sweet But Psycho" singer also teased what fans can expect on her latest record. "There's definitely going to be remixes," Max said when asked about possible collaborations. "There's going to be some collaborations. Can't say much right now. I can't give you all the surprises." Max previously released Heaven & Hell and Diamonds & Dancefloors in 2020 and 2023, respectively. Don't Click Play will be available to stream on Friday, Aug. 22. Read the original article on People
