Did the SEGA Genesis have a good sound chip?

No, not really.
I mean it was fine for the time (reminder that the Genesis is an 80s product) but not especially good.
There's a reason Michael Jackson famously struggled with the Genesis sound chip. Everything is so damn crunchy, it really limits the kinds of sounds you can get from it.

Yes, people don't care about the quality of the instrument more than the song itself except literal audiophiles (less than 21k people worldwide)

if Black Parade didn't have filler songs it would be a GOAT album in the history of music albums

Not really. But better sound engineers could get far better results than whoever made these tracks.

I really liked it. There are certain things it did way better than the SNES's sample based proto-MIDI system. Any electronic music, punchy bass and sweeping organs, futuristic/metallic/industrial type sound effects. What it did not do so well was sounding anything like a real instrument, so any tracks composed for a band, orchestra etc sounded pathetic compared to the SNES. But I really do like how smooth and punchy everything sounded in general. Really pleasing to the ear.

MCR is good and fun to listen to, and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

mcr is great, but their image was a victim of being so popular that everyone hated them on principle

Cancer is thematic to the album but it for sure doesn't match the tone. I always felt weird about that one
