Who’s playing us in a game of Rock Band?!

Harmonix has announced that they will be releasing a new Paramore song pack for Rock Band on May 15th! The songs featured are “Ignorance”, “The Only Exception”, and “Brick By Boring Brick.”

From the official press release:

In 2009, Paramore released their third record, Brand New Eyes, to critical acclaim and chart-topping success. Three tracks from the album, which held strong on the Billboard 200 for over 30 weeks, are coming to Rock Band on May 15th!

“Ignorance,” the first single from Brand New Eyes, leads off the three-pack. It’s followed by the second single off the album, the aggressive pop-rock track, “Brick by Boring Brick.” Finally, the emotional ballad, “The Only Exception,” closes out the pack. A Pro Guitar and Pro Bass upgrade for the song – the band’s most commercially successful single to date – will be also available.

Tegan and Sara are in the studio recording with Justin Meldal-Johnson. Check out their latest Carpool Confessional video, where they do some killer ’80s dancing and lots of clapping with Taylor and Jeremy, and then hang with a lot of other cool guests too. T&S also mention that once they’re done recording with Justin, Paramore will be heading into the studio!

FINALLY, AN UPDATE FROM PARAMORE

It’s April… Honestly, I don’t believe how fast the months go by anymore. The older I get the faster time flies. The other day I was looking at my calendar from last year (which was, admittedly, a lot less full than I had hoped it would be…) and thinking of how I was dreading how slowly it might go by. I’ve never known what it’s like to be home for more than a few weeks at a time that absolutely nothing is going on. The only thing I could think about was if we could snap our fingers and make the 4th album happen so that the next time I looked up, we’d be back on a stage somewhere and not sitting around at home. But you can’t just make things like that happen. For something to be great, there has to be some kind of trial or some type of struggle that actually makes it special or valuable to you. Otherwise, anything could be easily taken for granted.
