So Paramore’s newest album "After Laughter" had just been released and it is GREAT. They went in a new direction with their sound, which is not new for them, but I’m really happy with this one. Here’s a list of my reactions while listening:
1. “YES”
2. “ABSOLUTELY”
3. “OH MY GOD”
4. *Crying*
5. “Why am I dancing and crying at the same time??”
6. “I’m going to keep this on repeat for the whole summer”
7. “I feel every emotion Hayley is singing right now”
8. “I love the sound they moved to”
This new sound is kind of indie-alternative and I’m loving it. If you asked me what kind of album would come after Self-Titled a few months ago I wouldn’t be able to tell you. But this makes perfect sense.
9. “"Forgiveness" is giving me serious HAIM vibes”
Which isn’t surprising since Hayley is friends with them and has been tweeting about how much she loves them recently.
