Paramore Band • Page 45

i don't really care for 1/3 of this album (Forgiveness, Fake Happy, 26, Grudges) but like the rest enough to put it at my top 15 of the year so far. "Pool" is one of my top 2017 songs as well

 

I really like the new album. Its probably one of the few times i have went to a gig more excited for the new material by a band than the older stuff. (I dont know if that makes sense?)

 

Makes perfect sense. I'm definitely more excited for After Laughter songs than anything else at Riot Fest.

 

Singles Club are all finally on Spotify and Apple music

 

Only in the US? Can't find them

 

Unsure. All of the songs are separated as singles. If you've been looking for an album, check the singles section

 

Nope, only Monster is on there :/

 

I'm surprised Decode isn't on Spotify. Only the live version from the self titled deluxe edition.

 

It's at the end of brand new eyes (in Sweden at least)

 

This is a must read:

Paramore’s Hayley Williams Still Gets You - The Fader

"Hayley even privately quit the band for a brief period in the summer of 2015, feeling exhausted and thinking she had nothing left to say or sing. “I just was done,” she says. “I thought, There’s gotta be something else that I’m good at in my life. Maybe it’s time for me to go find that."

 

Really great/interesting/surprising interview.

 

For whatever reason the new album didn't stick with me.

 

I mostly liked the album on the first few spins, but soured on it pretty quickly. There's nothing here thematically that I can really get into, and musically it's occupying a space similar to that of American Beauty/American Psycho when that came out -- where there are undeniably hooks here, they come across more annoying to me than anything else.

 

Spotify has a 5-minute interview up with the band:

Paramore: Cover Story

 

S/t LP is 15 bucks on amazon right now. Double vinyl, lowest price it's ever been apparnetly

Just received my copy of this and it sounds muy bueno. Just getting through "Part II" and I have absolutely zero issue in saying it's the band's best song to date and is straight up one of the best rock songs ever. This album does not fucking quit. I've had After Laughter for awhile, and you know that album is stellar as well, but the middle section of this one helps just barely edge it out. "Grow Up"--->"Last Hope" is an all-time favorite run of tracks.

 

Must be a wild feeling to be ripped off by a Beatle.

 

Hahaha that's really his new album cover? That's so weird haha

 

Haha I guess? Not too sure- just came across it on the Spotify new releases page.

 

Haha wow that's kinda amazing. I truly believe that Ringo has no idea who Paramore are, and especially not that album, BUT it's extremely uncanny

 

Well, the Riot cover art was inspired by No Doubt's Rock Steady.

 

God, have you guys heard that new Ringo single? It's legitimately awful.

 

It's interesting listening to Fake Happy and then going back and listening to Where the Lines Overlap.
