| I gotta say, I might just be a fan of this band. Catchy well written pop songs that rock. How freakin' rare is that. The production is awesome. Kind of reminds me of the first time I heard Green Day's Dookie. It's not often that you get to hear pop-punk with that level of production/mix quality. two thumbs up.
An interesting side note. I live in Nashville and Paramore are from Franklin which is a suburb about 30 miles south of here. The guys in my band and I were discussing paramore in the van today, and the oddity that they are in the nashville area music scene. They have a record going platinum, tour extensively, and are one of the biggest bands to ever come out of the Nashville area, yet the Nashville press, (Free Weekly entertainment mags, and newspapers) have virtually ignored them. You can't go a week without reading about some shoegazer college band that has been signed to some major label, and is still playing the local bar scene, yet a successful, talented band from this town gets diddly in the press.
Weird.
Anyway, Great record. congrats to all involved.
