Paramore

Seventy minutes of technicolor rock, gospel-flecked pop, and sprawling post-rock. A bold, messy, and triumphant document of a band reinventing itself in real time.

Expansive rebirth

A sprawling, kaleidoscopic rebirth unfolds here, sweeping away the rigid boundaries of their past in favor of a vibrant, genre-hopping curiosity. The production favors warm, tactile room sounds and vintage synthesizers, letting the rhythm section stretch into unexpected funk-rock grooves and jagged new-wave angles. It is a record that captures the dizzying transition into adulthood, balancing massive, triumphant pop anthems with intimate, acoustic breathers that prove survival can be a joyful, technicolor affair.

Moments Worth Waiting For

06Ain’t It FunThe slap-bass line and gospel choir on 'Ain’t It Fun' mark a radical, soulful departure from the band's established rock template.

Three brief, ukulele-led interludes are dispersed across the tracklist, functioning as charming, lo-fi palate cleansers between the album's massive pop-rock productions.

17FutureThe sprawling, seven-minute closer 'Future' shifts from a delicate acoustic intro into a massive, shoegaze-inspired wall of instrumental noise.
