Election Day 2016
Today is election day here in the United States. I’d just like to encourage everyone reading this to vote today! Also if you have any issues voting you can call 866-OUR-VOTE, and don’t forget that once you’re in line they have to let you vote — even after the polls close.
I’ll be hanging out, cracking nervous jokes, in the politics thread most of the day.

Jeezy Tops Billboard Charts This Week
Jeezy has earned his third number one album and topped this week’s Billboard charts. Avenged Sevenfold’s surprise album debuted at number four.
Avenged Sevenfold’s surprise release, The Stage, takes a bow at No. 4 with 76,000 units (and 72,000 in traditional album sales). The set arrived without warning on Oct. 28, well ahead of its previously announced release date of Dec. 9. Frontman M. Shadows said the band opted for a surprise release because it’s more exciting than the traditional roll out of an album and gets its music out to an audience “without any preconceived notions.”

Ray Toro of My Chemical Romance Talks Reunion Rumors
Ray Toro of My Chemical Romance talked with NME about reunion rumors and the unexpected reaction to their that teaser video they posted earlier this year.
“I feel like that took everybody aback,” Toro told NME about the rumours. “I don’t think we realised how dramatic that teaser trailer was. We were just looking for a cool way to announce the 10th anniversary – and we were all just blown away by the reaction.”
Toro continued: “It makes you feel really good, because you know so many years later your work is still appreciated and it’s finding a new audience. One of the things we hear a lot that is that people who weren’t even born when that album or when the band first started are somehow into us. I remember when I was in high school, listening to The Misfits. You’d never get to see them live back then but it ends up getting passed down and becomes almost mythical in a sense, so I think that’s pretty cool if that does happen with My Chem.”
