Riot! - Paramore

RIOT! - PARAMORE ALBUM Paramore are an American band featuring Hayley Wiliams (lead singer and song writer), Joshua Neil Farro (Guitar and song writer), Zachary Wayne Farro (Bass), Jeremy Clayton Davis (Drums) and would be categorised in the Pop Punk or Pop Alternative genres. I first discovered their music about half a year ago in the strangest of places. I was at a friend's house and we were playing Rock Band on the Xbox 360, which is the game involving a microphone, bass, guitar and drums whereby each player takes an instrument and tries to perform the songs by hitting, pressing and ... more

2004 was the year that Paramore formed, the year later they released their début album 'All We Know Is Falling' through Fueled By Ramen records, and then their second album 'Riot!' appeared on the scene in 2007. 'Riot!' was recorded in New Jersey with the producer David Bendeth, an eleven track offering of utmost excellence. Paramore have come a long way as a band in their few years and this has to be seen as in no small part down to their gifted front woman Hayley Williams. The female vocalist has a lot of power and emotion in her voice, she conveys these qualities with great eloquence when ... more

Yet Paramore has a lot more to offer. They are packed full of horrendously catchy tunes, and have an excellent, charismatic frontwoman in the form of ... more

I've been quite a big fan of paramore for well over a year, before the whole supposed 'emo' craze was about and personally they're more rock/pop than 'emo'. I think that they should be encouraged as a rock band especially as there are not enough female singers around in that genre of music. Just because hayley's a girl and tends to write more meaningful songs doesn't necessarily mean they should be classed as that. Anyway! Now thats off my chest... ..Riot is an outstanding album. In their first album, all we know is falling, they also had some outstanding and to this day amazing song's but ... more

Paramore Riot Released 2007 For a pessimist im pretty optimistic 03:48 This has a consistent amazing beat and an awesome rhythm and the vocals are absolutely mind-blowing. Lyrics are great to sing along to so easy to memorize it took me two listens of the song to remember them. That's what you get 3:40 Again amazing vocals and lyrics Hayley Williams (vocalist) has to be the best female singer by FAR! I've also been told this band are good live…I would love to go and see them. This beat is the thing that makes this song what it is because if you take the beat away this song would be crap ... more
