Paramore’s New LP Slated for September

It’s been awhile since we’ve heard anything from our favorite Tennessee punk fivesome, but alas, Paramore has confirmed a September release for their upcoming album!

The band has been cooped up in Rob Cavallo’s Calabasas home for the last few weeks, recording music singer Hayley Williams calls “some kind of therapist.”

Blogs the firecracker:

“most of the songs you’ll hear have to do with friendship. In fact, this is the first paramore album that wasn’t written mostly about love relationships. i have made a lot of friends i’ve lost a lot of friends over the past couple years… and it’s all gonna be there for you to dissect. i think, too, that the past couple years were some of the first times in a while that i’ve felt the burn of other people’s ignorance… a lack of patience and a quickness to judge. it forced me to “grow up” and realize what’s real. who’s worth the pain and who’s not. i’m most proud of these lyrics because they were the healer. a couple of these songs and their lyrics acted like some kind of therapist… forcing our band to talk out the issues we’ve dealth with… both as a band and personally. i owe a lot to these songs! of course, i’m nervous about putting it all out there on the table… but what else is there to do!? i’m just as excited to hear people’s thoughts.”

We’re excited too, H!
