Career

As mentioned in a recent E! News interview with Tice about the creation of "Black Parade", the music conjured up images of a royal procession very early in the song creation process. Upon hearing the initial horn arrangement, Tice recalled they mentioned that it "sound[ed] like a parade." Tice continued, "'Can't you see her just like on some elephant or something ridiculously fabulous with all her jewels and everything?' and [the song process] just kind of started like that'".[2]
