3.5/4 beatsTennessee-based band Paramore released their third studio album, Brand New Eyes, on Tuesday September 29th.
The album boasts melodies and intricacies that were not seen on their previous records, All You Know Is Falling, and Riot! It begins with Careful, which pulls the listener into the harsh and emotional concepts that surround the 11 track album. Such songs as Ignorance, Turn It Off and Playing God reinforce these struggles, as well as showing the triumphs the band mastered in getting them to where they are now. The Only Exception, Looking Up, and Where The Lines Overlap bring a more positive spin to the record.

Hayley Williams, the band’s lead singer, took a more stripped down and raw approach to her vocal performance. Jeremy Davis, Josh and Zac Farro, and newly acquired guitarist Taylor York, successfully back her up with their edgy guitar riffs, pounding bass lines and unique drum beats.
You definitely need to listen to Brand New Eyes from beginning to end to appreciate the strong messages behind it. Fans of Paramore are able to get an inside look into what the band was going through, and new listeners will truly experience Paramore at their best.
