Paramore

Ignorance

Release date: 14th September 2009

Label: Atlantic Records

Fueled By Ramen recording group Paramore are set to release the single ‘Ignorance’ in the UK on September 14th. This track is taken from their forthcoming album ‘brand new eyes’, which will be released on September 28th.

‘brand new eyes’ is a case study in the band’s versatility and contains as many driving, fist-pumping anthems like first single ‘Ignorance’ as it does upbeat pop masterpieces like ‘Where The Lines Overlap’ and lilting, acoustic ballads such as ‘Misguided Ghosts’.

The rollercoaster ride that Paramore have experienced over the past few years has been a huge influence on the lyrics for ‘brand new eyes’, however it was important for frontwoman Hayley Williams not to write a clichéd collection of songs about the perils of success. “I watch all these bands go from being really hungry on their first album to talking about paparazzi following them around on their next one,” Hayley explains with a laugh. “I was so afraid of sounding like that.” Instead Hayley decided to dig into her own psyche and explore some of her deepest emotions. “I would sit in my room all day and not go anywhere, because I felt like I had to keep myself secluded in order to write lyrics,” Hayley recounts. “I’m really proud because looking back on all the songs this is really exactly what I was going through—and I think a lot of people are going through this, too.”
