My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way has described making their new album as harder than looking after a baby.

The singer's wife Lyn-Z had a baby in the midst of touring meaning Way had to juggle recording in the studio with changing nappies.

He told US magazine Spin: "The record was more challenging than the baby, and the baby was really challenging!

"I was pretty worn out. Liy-Z and I had the baby, and then two weeks after that I was in the studio.”

He added:  “I didn't shave for weeks, looked horrible, and ended up getting all these dreadlocks in my hair.

“I was never showering. I would show up in a T-shirt covered in baby puke - you can pretty much picture the glamorous nature of that. And so we would work every day, and as soon as we were done I would rush right home and help Lyn-Z with the baby."

My Chemical Romance's as-yet-untitled fourth album is expected later this year.
