Or perhaps, a post-apocalyptic afterlife centered around The Black Parade, with The Patient as the lead character and the band themselves driving the story forward through musical performances.… Read more »

Chase Petra embraces the theatrical flair of William Shakespeare as they dive into their new album, Lullabies For Dogs. “Not only is William Shakespeare arguably the most celebrated writer of all time, but he regularly got a little bit silly with it,” the band shares.
