Can't believe the reaction this is getting on Absolutepunk.net. Complete idiots.
-
Not surprised that they co-wrote for the full-length. Shame about Ant though.
Oh well, as long as Perceptions exists, that's fine!

Was looking to get into promoting
I see the future...it's Flood Of Red, Twin Atlantic, Futures and CWSI...on the same bill. *pssst make it happen*

Millions of fans, worldwide, millions and millions of albums sold, record shattering iTunes sales, biggest grossing new album in its debut week in nearly a decade, 3 multi-plat albums, multiple tours and a major world tour all by age 21 would disagree with your statement about Taylor Swift. She writes from the heart, gives an uplifting feel to sometimes unpleasant situations and gives you something to believe, and she does it all while being a musical and business genius.
Taylor Swift can go suck a dick, or two. Dirty whore...

I still like the band and Hayley, but I agree with Erin's last post. Hayley is what 22 now?? If the label was trying to make the band all about her, and if she truly cared about the band, she could have told the label to stop just focusing on her. She could have said, we are a band, so treat us like a band and not just focus on me.
Wait...you honestly think one little girl could turn around a whole marketing campaign? lol

So....
thinking about this, it's apparent that this has only become a problem with age.
I'm leaning towards Josh's side (although if Hayley sucks, why did they date? If the situation sucked, why wait 3 albums? etc.) but, as has been said, they were KIDS when this all started. They probably didn't know any better.
Yeah, I think it's just said that what so many kids probably saw as the first "genuine" band they got into isn't really that way.
And for all of those saying "Yeah but they still played small shows etc.", this was planned. This could have been prevented if they'd just come out swinging as a major label act. But, at the end of the day, Hayley is a fucking cash cow that's gonna be milked dry- she's a business dream.
A cute, religious-but-not-overtly, young girl that manages to upstand all of America's moral values whilst wearing the right band tees to wear on a Warped stage and a face pretty enough to whore all over TV and magazines. Fuck, a label would be stupid NOT to take advantage of her.
Nonetheless, they are all talented individuals and I wish them all the best, but let's not get too heated about it.
It's just a band...

Aaaaaaannnnnndddd it's all a lie.
Oh well.

How do any of you even know that Hayley wrote the announcement? You all assume because she usually blogs for the band, but the Paramore account on Paramore.net is usually used by management and Fueled By Ramen. I know this because I've interned at the label and I'm also an admin on the site. So stop it with the name calling and arguing because in the end, we don't actually know if Hayley wrote it or if she, Jeremy, and Taylor just didn't even know how to say what needed to be said and management posted it on their behalf.
Sharing opinions and debating are absolutely fine. We all have different ideas on this whole situation, but this insulting, sarcasm, and name calling really need to stop. What's done is done and no amount of disrespect towards each other is going to change that fact.
THE PLOT THICKENS

^ That's a very good way to look at it. To add on to Zac as a producer or engineer, I totally see Josh moving on simply as a songwriter if he doesn't want to start another band on a more local level.
The problem is that, whatever they do, there will be thousands of people watching and scrutinising it.
So yeah, I see them maybe doing writing for films etc, or maybe the other side of the music business.
Anyway, guess I should offer my thanks to Josh and Zac for being huge inspirations and being part of the band that got me into the music I love know. Forever grateful.
-
Wish these dudes the best in the future.
Maybe this is a good thing. Josh and Zac could do musical stuff (although I think Zac could go the role of enginerr or producer) and Paramore will carry on- 2 musical awesomes!!
-
If you want to book us a show and pay for us to get there lol
But, honestly, when we can, we will.

Okay, we are playing a couple of dates in birmingham!

I confess I just had a little Paramore circa 2006 revisit and am getting a little too nostalgic for my own good!
