paramore - after laughter - recording and anticipation

lol, it would never happen. I could see them adding more psych pop elements to their sound though. Dude loves his pedals.

meanwhile I'm pleased they're obsessed with "Seven Wonders" too.

Taylor looking less like a dapper young emissary of pop and new wave and more like everyone I went on Phish tour with. When album 6 rolls around in uh, 2021, I'm predicting jammy elements.

hayley <3

oh also i finally saw them on this tour (at boston calling) and it was wonderful. we got kind of an abbreviated festival setlist; unexpectedly, they cut "misery business," and they played "idle worship"/"no friend." i was ecstatic

it was very good

I have a place in my heart for misery business, but would be fine with it if they rotated it out of their sets.

Saw them at Bonnaroo last weekend, they were great. Also did the Idle Worship/No Friend extended jam. And in the middle, Hayley gave this nice little talk, partly prompted by Anthony Bourdain.

Hayley Williams always knew her debut solo album, Petals for Armor, would be a detour, but she still felt anxious about getting Paramore back together after several years apart. But on the first day she, Taylor York, and Zac Farro reconnected at a Nashville studio space, those nerves quickly melted into relief.

“We wrote and tracked something we loved and it actually surprised us,” Williams tells Rolling Stone in an email. “We kept joking it was all downhill from that point, but thank God we’ve been surprised a lot throughout this whole thing. I’m always waiting for the moment for us to know we’re onto something new and we’re not just rehashing the same shit. It was ‘Ain’t It Fun’ for our self-titled record, and ‘Hard Times’ or ‘Told You So’ for After Laughter. It’s not about it feeling like a hit so much as it’s a scary, exciting feeling that you’re treading uncharted waters. It keeps you curious. We got to feel that feeling early on this time.”

As for the album’s sound, Williams says she and York had been reminiscing on some of their earliest influences well before they began writing the LP. But she’s quick to note that that doesn’t necessarily mean the group is necessarily plotting a “comeback ‘emo’ record.”

“The music we were first excited by wasn’t exactly the kind of music we went on to make,” Williams says. “Our output has always been all over the place and with this project, it’s not that different. We’re still in the thick of it but some things have remained consistent from the start. 1) More emphasis back on the guitar, and 2) Zac should go as Animal as he wants with drum takes.”

feeling good about this

ready to meet Taylor for negronis whatever happens
