whoa really? Awesome! I'm so glad I got it the first day it came out then haha!

hey redda! I'm Amanda, nice to have you on the boards, where'd you discover paramore?

haha nice. That'd be a funny ringtone lol

^ I agree with Brent, I'm not going to go around and act as if I'm better or anything than they are just because I had heard of them back when Emergency had just been released. I'll admit that I am not very happy with the fans who just come because Paramore is the new "It" band or something, I'll still treat them like fans, but for those who had heard of them on TRL and are genuinely interested in hearing their new and old stuff are the fans I hope are the majority that comes from the exposure from TRL. I mean hey, I used to be someone who had relied on TRL for music, then my parents got digital cable and now I've got FUSE and other music channels haha. EDIT: I understand that Brent's post was for the benefit of everyone on the board and not just certain people, but I just felt that I should put in my opinion.

yeah my cousin's friend is in a band and Paramore went to their CD release party so she got to hang and meet them. So jealous lol.

do you think you could do the bass tabs too? Im not good at figuring out bass tabs lol. I'm still a beginner at playing bass

I'll be right there behind ya with my copy and echo the same phrase haha.

wow. I wish I knew her. Then I could tell her off and be all "BITCH PLEASE!!!" excuse my language lol.

::sigh:: unfortunately it has begun...now we all must meditate and go on a paramore purity quest of just listening to paramore and paramore alone. ::sarcasm haha::

haha lets hope! But I'd rather them be around for like...years like 20 years or something, maybe more and then them all decide together that their time is done than go through like 30 break ups like Rachel and Ross haha

yeah they are, supposedly they're coming out with a new album. And I agree on the whole too pop thing, I wish she'd go back to rock/ska thing. I loved that. Anyways with hayley, we know Paramore won't be around forever, but I certainly hope its not because someone wants to go solo or anything, hopefully it'll just be one of those things where they all feel its time and they've made all the music they could together and that its time to move on to the next chapter of their lives (cheesy i know)

awww, they're all so cute! I wanna hang with them some day so bad! lol.

basically what I was trying to say lol. you just said it a lot better haha.

its a reference to a song by the band Refused. It's cool, not everyone has the time to go back through the threads to find out what that lyric means haha.

yeah, i noticed that too as I was reading the review from Billboard. They only focused on Hayley, unfortunately there's not much else we can expect from the more mainstream music critics. They'll mostly focus on Hayley instead of the rest of the band, they always do that with female-fronted bands. They did it to No Doubt as well. But overall, I think the review is better than some of the others, such as that one from blog charts or w/e.

i voted Im so conflicted...I want them to be on TRL, but I don't....lol, w/e! Anything to help them get their music out there!

I hope this wasn't posted anywhere, if it was I'm sorry just delete it. But here's a review from billboard on their new album. I think everyone will be happy "Move over, Avril, there's a new gun in town. And even though Paramore's lead singer, Hayley Williams, is a few years younger, she has a way bigger set of vocal pipes. The two share a similar register, but Williams belts it out with way more control and authority. She may even be more of a respectable pop idol since her image isn't manufactured to be rebellious and angst-ridden, but she instead appears to be a genuinely sweet girl, bottling up a huge voice and a heart full of lost loves. On Riot! she fills the majority of the punk-pop tunes with tales of emo angst and declarations of boy woes. Although her lyrics can seem contrived, they also feel representative of actual teenage puppy love, where a breakup feels like the end of the world. The songs are all pretty good tunes performed well, with catchy hooks in the vein of Boys Like Girls fronted by a young Shirley Manson(although that analogy might be lost, since most people who like Boys Like Girls probably aren't familiar with oldies like Garbage.) As with all of the bands on the Fueled by Ramen roster, the band is an energetic troupe of rockers with precise haircuts who rock pretty hard. The production is sparkling and heavily compressed due to the golden hands of David Bendeth, but this is potentially a downside. Since the sound quality is ultra-clean, it makes the listening experience relatively risk-free and also brings attention to the fact that there's not a lot of ground being broken here. Most songs have an interesting breakdown of some sort in the bridge, which helps break up the entirety of the disc, and there are a few power ballads (think "Don't Speak") that work well, but overall there's a consistent distorted guitar chug and driving beats that never stray too far from Fall Out Boy's formula. The lack of originality is forgivable when Williams' girlish charm takes over. It's a lot like the scene in High Fidelity where the jaded record clerks hear Lisa Bonet's character singing a Frampton song that's worn to death, but because of her beauty and sweet voice, they love the performance. In the last track, "Born for This" Williams takes a break from her love confessions, and commands everyone to sing like it's the last song they will ever sing, making for a perfect live show closer. Ultimately, this disc has enormous crossover potential, and will probably appeal to those who are fans of the genre, and for those who aren't, there's a good chance of it becoming a guilty pleasure. ~ Jason Lymangrover, All Music Guide" http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/discography/index.jsp?pid=683820&aid=944173

hahaha, awesome! I'm so excited for them, they totally deserve it!

omg that's amazing! Thanks for the official stats David!!

yeah what charts are they number 18 on? I looked up on billboard and nothing came up...

"This is straight bitchin!" lmao, awww, and the socks, those guys are so cool. I wanna chill with them one day haha.

hehe, I can't wait for 1:00pm tomorrow. Usually I hate that time. I don't know why. That time of the day is always boring. Except for tomorrow haha.

hehe, totally just taught myself Stuck On You and Let This Go. I'm happy? That's an understatement lol

I'd love it if it was the Riot! Release party performance instead, a mix of old and new. I think that'd be probably something more fans would want instead of the Anaheim performance.

45 times so far for me haha
