7 Reasons I'm Excited For Paramore's New Album And You Should Be Too
Billboard.com

Paramore has been a part of everyone's life at one point or another, whether they're a fan or not thanks to hits like "Misery Business," "The Only Exception," "Still Into You," and "Ain't It Fun." It has been almost 4 years since the release of their self-titled album and it was just announced that their 5th studio album will be released May 12th and this is why everyone should be excited for it:

1. The first single released is AMAZING

They went in a new direction with their sound and it was definitely the correct one. Bands are always going to have to update their sound over time and Paramore expertly has been adapting for years.

2. Hayley is "ready to cry hard/dance harder with you."

This gif is exactly what will be going on in my head when I listen to this new album. There's been a lot of drama over who's in the band still, who's not, and a lawsuit involving a former band member so I'm expecting a lot of BOPS with emo lyrics. Honestly, those are the best kind of songs.

3. New era, new aesthetic

As much as I loved Hayley's punk rock hair, this new look may be my favorite on her.

4. The original drummer is back

Zac Farro is back after a messy breakup with the band back in 2011. Longtime fans are really excited about this.

5. New album means new tour

If you've never seen Paramore live I 10/10 recommend. Even if you don't know a lot of their music, it's just a great time.

6. This album almost didn't happen at all

Apparently, with all the drama happening within the band, the members were considered breaking up altogether.

But after Hayley and Taylor's friendship with Zac began to rekindle and they started doing a little writing to see if it'd go anywhere, they realized this is going to be big.

7. And honestly, everything that Paramore makes is gold

Paramore always comes through with quality music, so even if it's not what we expect, it's still going to be great.

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
