Biography

Matt Pelissier was the original drummer for New Jersey's My Chemical Romance, co-founding the band with his high school buddy Gerard Way and guitarist Ray Toro in 2001. The band reportedly grew dissatisfied with his drumming following the recording of their second album, 2004's Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, and replaced him mid-year behind the drum kit with Chicago native Bob Bryar. ~ Corey Apar, All Music Guide
