Going off that point, this is the kind of record that one would imagine a pop-rock band to naturally create in a top-40 world. The record is still rooted in the sounds of pop-punk, pop-rock, and indie music it’s just that most of the songs push on other boundaries as well. Paramore isn’t the same band that they used be, but that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. So in turn, the trio used just over an hour to express themselves to their fullest with touching lyrics, emotive instrumental parts, and some of the most explorative and experimental ideas to come from the band.īefore this goes any further, let it be said that to really soak this record in at its fullest, people need to toss out any expectations that you’ve previously used to describe the band, because this record downright plays with your head. Most artists just aren’t given that big of a platform anymore.
We all know that 17-track albums aren’t as common as they used to be. Well, to put this in perspective, in the eyes of many longtime fans, this is Paramore’s latest and most crucial make or break moment to date. Haley Williams has even gone on as far to say that this self-titled record is a statement, one that’s not just limited externally to the world, but inwardly, to themselves as a band. I could say that because of various momentum hits, like the Farro brothers’ departure under the most shocking and inamicable of circumstances, the Tennessee group have become but an afterthought to longtime fans.
