All About Bullets
I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love is the debut album by New Jersey rock quintet My Chemical Romance, released on July 23rd, 2002. The songs on the album tell the story of the "Demolition Lovers", two criminals who commit many crimes together, not-unlike a modern-day Bonnie and Clyde, who are ultimately gunned down in a desert. The storyline continues in My Chemical Romance's second album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Matt Pelissier, who was the drummer for MCR at the time, also helped Gerard write the song "Skylines and Turnstiles".
The album had earned the band a large underground following, but they were not able to emerge into the mainstream until their second album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, which was released two years later.

Trivia
The copyright message on the CD jokingly reads, "Unauthorized duplication is a violation of applicable laws and will result in Gerard coming to your house and sucking your blood."
The re-released version of the album also contains the music videos for "Honey, This Mirror Isn't Big Enough for the Two of Us" and "Vampires Will Never Hurt You".
Frank Iero only played guitar on two of the tracks. One of these was "Early Sunsets Over Monroeville" (as referenced in their 2005 CD/DVD Life on the Murder Scene) and the other has not been released in an official statement so it is therefore unknown what it is. There is some speculation amongst fans that it is "Demolition Lovers", due to the apparent guitar behind lead guitarist Ray Toro's solo. But this is hard to know as all the tracks are double tracked and have 2 guitar parts recorded by Ray.
The saying on the inside of the cover of the CD is French for "Thank You For The Venom".
Some versions of the album came with a bonus disc called Now That's What I Call Eyeball
