This Is Why is really good. It’s definitely more shoegazie than anything they’ve done before. It’s as if they took After Laughter and both of Hayley’s albums and threw them in a blender. In fact, the back half of the record made me forget it was a Paramore release, I was in a trance and thought they were Hayley songs I hadn’t heard before. I don’t think that’s a bad thing. But I can see it rubbing people the wrong way. I’m happy for them because they look happier doing it than they ever have. That’s huge for a 20 year old band. I’ll always love Paramore.

 

Paramore, Enter Shikari, Linkin Park. Best day!!!

 

In order of excitement:

- hubris. - The One Above

You can also have it emailed to you weekly if you don't want to miss it by signing up to my mailing list.

 

Was excited to see TGUK on here til I saw it was a cover of “home on the range” for a Kansas tourism thing

 

Pierce The Veil and Narrow Head.

Will eventual check out Paramore. The singles just didn’t do it for me so I’m not too anxious to dig in.

Might also check out You Me At Six.

 

There’s a new Rookie of the Year single. It’s not very good though.

I’ll be checking out the Paramore album fur shoooor

 

LIES released a new single and announced an album this week

 

I clicked on it so fast this week and was a bit surprised hahh. But it's fun, hopefully they'll do have some new material soon though

The back end of Paramore's new album seems to be far different than the singles, give it a chance ;D

This Is Why was the only album I listened right away at night around 2AM. For tonight my headphones await new Andy Shauf for sure as I was too tired to listen to two albums in the middle of the night, but now I'm checking out everything during home office hours, Yo La Tengo, Ducks Ltd. Tennis to start off with a certain vibe ;u

 

Andy Shauf
Black Belt Eagle Scout
Tennis

Been a slow start for me this year but so far have really been digging Samia's Honey and Thrice's TAITA Revisited.

 

New Paramore just isn't doing it for me. Such a bummer. I really liked After Laughter and Haley's solo stuff too. Just isn't clicking for me.

 

New ICF

 

check out Tennis

 

If you haven't done so already, you should check out the debut WOLDS single, which is the new project from Paul Green (Devil Sold His Soul, The Arusha Accord).

It's a pop-rock/alt rock tune, so definitely VERY different to what he's known for, and all proceeds from streams and what not go to a mental health charity called Young Minds. Each new single will have its proceeds all donated to a different charity.

So, give it a spin, and even if you don't like it, that one listen will still have helped out a little.
