While so much has been said and written about My Chemical Romance's brilliant, career-spanning comeback setlist from their gig at The Shrine in Los Angeles last year, we've been scouring the internet to hear the moment that soundtracked the curtain-drop before the performance. (Well… minus all the screaming fans over the top of it.)

Now, My Chem fan Julian has brilliantly pieced together the intro track to the gig, with snippets of Romance, Look Alive, Sunshine, Sleep, Mama and the opening dialogue from the video for I'm Not Okay (I Promise) all seamlessly combined to form the sound of the New Jersey heroes walking onstage and kicking off the next era of the band.

"I loved this track so much from the moment I first heard it during the livestream, so I tried my best to recreated it as accurate as possible," says Julian. "It ain't much, but it was honest work."

We disagree that this isn't much given that it's probably going to drive everyone to tears of joy once more. Check it out below:
