March on Electric Children is the second studio album by the American post-hardcore band The Blood Brothers, released in February 2002. This album is a self-described short story set to music.[3] Produced by Matt Bayles, the album was recorded in one week [4] on a $3000 budget [5] and has been described by singer Jordan Blilie as "crazier" and "more complex" than the band's previous effort, This Adultery Is Ripe[6].

Concept album
The album has been described by numerous critics as a concept album, with its characters portrayed more as villains and victims than as heroes. The effort was an attempt by the band to create a storyline with repeating characters that has a bleak outlook on life, emphasizing the consequences of the characters' selfish choices. The album's closing track "American Vultures" is the conclusion to the storyline and wraps up the themes featured in the previous songs. Says singer Jordan Blilie:
