So paramore broke up.

[ShutUpCasey]

xD. Soyeah. It's kind of about time. R.i.p. Paramore. You were a good band, but Hayley.... You were a bitch. [: kthanks byee.<33

[Rutherford The Brave]

I hate Paramore, and I think the majority of us have determined that the breaking up of paramore, has no effect on us.

[ShutUpCasey]

xD. Good man. [: They weren't the worst, but they sucked. xD. The band could;ve been good. but they fail. [;

[ImCoolBeans]

im just saying... they did not break up... two members left, hayley williams and the other two members will replace them. just like any band would..

[BOBBY HILL]

I think miracles are real...

[Rutherford The Brave]

im just saying... they did not break up... two members left, hayley williams and the other two members will replace them. just like any band would..

but that would be like putting duct tape around your chord so your guitar stays plugged in, It sounds shitty and it kind of sort of works.

Um, no. Paramore did not break up. 2 of the founding members left, but that was it. Get your facts straight. And I don`t understand why the "majority" here doesn`t like them. They play good music.

Because Paramore is one of the best examples of what the mainstream can shit out on a yearly basis that gets paid. What makes Hayley Williams any better than, say, Beth Gibbons of Portishead?

qnUFhrmk3Os

Post any Paramore song and Beth Gibbons will dominate Hayley Williams every single time.

[Iron Man]

I`ve never heard of Portishead. Besides, Hayley has a great voice. People make it seem like they practically mumble or smash guitars and such instead of actually playing them.

What about for the fact that it's generic modern rock? There's nothing out there about their music, it all sounds the same, just like everything else out there. If they went to a more experimental stage, I'd consider listening to them. But expecting that is just too much to ask for.

[Iron Man]

Well, like a lot of people here, I also hate mainstream, with the only exceptions being a few bands (including paramore). In my opinion, they do things right when mainstream turns to shit. But, everyone is entitled to their opinions, and I am not going to be the one who forces Paramore onto people.

[Fourth Dimension]

actually if you look at their official site only 2 left the group they arnt dead they will bounce back

You hate mainstream, but not paramore. That sounds a little odd, because they pretty much represent mainstream pop rock. Can you define some artists you think are "underground" and not mainstream?

I`ve never heard of Portishead. Besides, Hayley has a great voice. People make it seem like they practically mumble or smash guitars and such instead of actually playing them.

You should listen to Portishead. Beth Gibbons is an amazing experimental artist who not only has one of the best voices ever, but she has a really interesting style of making her music. She pretty much created the genre called "Trip Hop". The first album "Dummy" was included in the 1001 albums to hear before you die. That should mean something. Her music is revolutionary. I don't see paramore being that important in ten years.

[PJay]

Well fwiw I'm somewhere between "meh" and "good riddance" whatever happens to them.
Spookily I was just listening to Radio 1 (uk) and was thinking "what the hell is this crap" then the DJ (Annie Mac) said "And that was Paramore" and then I read this thread title. So I thought I would read the thread.
Personally I think I've been tuning this out or turning it off cos somehow I knew the name but hadn't linked it to any of there music.

[Bath]

I love Paramore. Their music makes me very happy and have helped me get through personal issues. It's sad that they broke up.. but I still have all of their music, and that's what matters.

I can see why people don't like them, but I just disagree. Probably because I have a personal connection to their songs.

[Kaius]

Each to their own. Paramore strikes me as being like marmite. You either love them or you hate them. I like them, and like the others above me have said they haven't fully split up.

[Sage]

You either love them or you hate them.

I am completely neutral and indifferent towards Paramore.

[Peace God]

She pretty much created the genre called "Trip Hop".
Yes, Portishead was immensely revolutionary but...lolwut?

[Mrs.KermitTheFrogx]

i love paramoree :}
and they havent split up its just the 2 brothers have left ^_^

[Fiction]

I love Paramore, or should I say I "loved". I think hayley is an amazing singer but all her fame has gone to her head now.
I saw them in November and she was very up herself.
I think that the farro brothers where the only two that managed to stay routed to the ground and that from what i've heard of how Hayley treated them, they had every right to leave.
I can't wait to here there new band though :) Not looking forward so much to the new Paramore.

[deadpie]

Yes, Portishead was immensely revolutionary but...lolwut?

Yeah. You realize the first album was in 1994? And Portishead isn't over, so you didn't have to use the word 'was'.

Probably because I have a personal connection to their songs.

This just sounds too bizarre to me. How could someone have personal connection to music that isn't even that deep? I could never understand that.

[Fiction]

Hayley's voice is very good but there is nothing special about it.
If you want awesome female vocals should go for Flyleaf or Hole.

Same as Kathy for me. ^^
Although I haven't seen them. :'(
Im hoping to see them this year if they do a tour.

EDIT: I was refering to Kathy's post on the last page. Never saw there was another page. >_<

[whereismymind]

To everyone that says they hate them: Music is a matter of opinion listen to them a bit more you might start to like them a bit more

[Triceratops]

I don't care if Paramore are together, or are not together. I think they're total shit and that'll never change.

And I don`t understand why the "majority" here doesn`t like them.

Well then please enlighten me on what's actually good about them? :what:

To everyone that says they hate them: Music is a matter of opinion listen to them a bit more you might start to like them a bit more

Oh dear Lord, I'd rather not. Once is enough, thank you.

[Nevermore]

I only liked one song by them. However that one song was the only one I heard by them. ^_^ I forget the name of it. It's sad they broke up, because bands are like family. :/ But if they weren't good, then maybe they'll get better. :) I couldn't judge if they were good or bad.

[Scarface]

Wow, someone actually see's what I see I'm not some kind of senile freak in this music world.

I find them to be very shitty to start off with. So you throw in someone with good vocals, but look at the disaster of a crew they really had, and then one goes off and gets selfish? Pfft, that's no crew/band. In it for the money.

I have been and always will be an 80's freak. Some people may say that they know the 80's music like I do. Well, let's say I have an actual personal connection to my music. It's what helps me step out of my body. It's actually what helped me get through what I went through as a child and now. I can name songs off the top of my head that can express any kind of feelings or emotions that I have. Real emotion, real music.

I don't feel that nor Paramore or any other band that I hear today will match what I listen to. Call me(Go west) bias, but it's just how I feel about music. I need to feel those chills when I hear songs come on. I need to feel how they feel and not how they feel about having sex with their "hoes" and getting all their "money", music has and probably never will be what it used to be. I have taken the time to hear a few Portishead tracks, it's not too bad if I actually do say so, but it's just not how I will ever feel about my 80's. /bringontheflame.

[DreamSeeker]

Never even liked them, but I have to admit Hayley Williams was a good singer. I loved her in Airplanes (B.O.B) as it's one of my favourite songs!

[DarkHorses]

I don't love Paramore, but I don't absolutely hate them either. I think they're far too overrated, though. To me the best bands are the ones that no one has heard of, the ones that actually have meaning in their songs and can really touch you. Paramore just doesn't do that for me, so I can't really appreciate their music.

[RAWWR]

Yes, I love paramore. *raises eyebrows at all the sheep on this thread who hate them*
Right, now i'm gonna go cry for them. :(

I think you're getting mixed up. The "sheep" would be the people who like them if anything. :P

[deadpie]

Matter of opinion, then you say that people should listen to them and they might like it more? That sounds kind of like your mixing up your words there.

Music is a form of art. When I listen to music I want to 'see, taste, feel, touch' the music. Music should give you a canvas in your mind representing the song. Paramore is simply Pollock without any purpose to splashing the paint on the canvas.

[scuba steve]

I quite like them, but yea they are pop punk so it's obvious there's no real skill involved except entertainment, people who are fighting for Paramore really don't have any ground other than the band is filthy rich.

Even those far off the rictor scale have lost members and come back from it, many not having the same members for more than a year or two.

AC/DC, G'n'R, Metallica and Pink Floyd to name a very few. People stop whining they are the skid mark of Rock.

And nobody will care about Paramore in ten years if they have just broken up. They haven't done anything that hasn't been done before.

I know full well they've broken up, but even so they still recovered when members left etc.

Uh, Roger Waters has only released two albums sense they broke up. Sure he tours, but holy fuck the tickets are expensive as fuck. David Gilmour has been doing allot more live concerts, but has only released one album sense they broke up. Of course a couple live albums too, but still.

You can't compare progressive rock band Pink Floyd to Paramore. That's too bizarre even for a sick guy like me.

Regardless of the genre or success it's a band to be compared with lesser ones, to show you what people that don't peer out of the top 40 are missing. And didn't they have a reunion in 2005?

Paramore? Compared to 'lessor ones'? Top 40? Good? You best be trolling.

You know that most artists that are making original and creative things are in the underground right? Mainstream only accepts the following genre's - The bad side of rap, alternative rock, some dadrock, modern country, and pop. That's pretty much it. The mainstream limits you from loads of music.

For you to say the top 40 is the best because it's the top 40 is absolutely insane. You know how many shitty artists have made the top 40, and then are not given a fuck about a year later?

[deadpie]

Well, then you must agree with what I said if I'm taking the post in the other way, right?

And yes, genre is important. Progressive rock has more elements then an ordinary pop rock song.

I do yes, i'm suprised you couldn't make the assumption when I said Paramore where pratically a skid mark on rock.

And I stand by that bands like Pink Floyd should always be used to compare to the likes of Paramore to help people stuck in the charts realise they're not 7 anymore and look at other music.

[Peace God]

You realize the first album was in 1994?
Although I personally love Portishead more...Massive Attack came out with their first album three years earlier. I dont doubt their innovation, it's just that crediting her(or even the entire band) with basically creating most of the genre seems puzzling to me.

[Triceratops]

This threads makes me want to believe that every Paramore fan is exactly what's wrong with the world today. They are a band that actually make me feel physically sick - and that's no understatement.

[georgiamay]

Ok, I'm throwing in my opinion here.

I really liked paramore. But people that tries to preach paramore down other people's throats really piss me off. I don't like most stuff in the top 40, because it all sounds exactly the same. Sure, paramore might not have been the most original band ever, but I still liked them. I'm not going to cry over it, they're just a band, you can still listen to their music if you really want to.

If you don't listen to their music and you don't like them, then I don't see why you seem so interesting in this thread. I get very annoyed by girls that don't shut up about justin bieber, but if someone made a thread about him, I wouldn't jump in and say, "ERRRR. I HATE THAT GUY, HE'S SOOOOOOOO GAY." Cause I don't give a shit.

Seriously? Are you still on about chords? They obviously play more than 3 chords. You wouldn`t know, because I bet you haven`t even taken the time to listen to at least 3 of their songs. And FYI, Hayley`s voice isn`t generic. This is what is wrong with the world: people putting down other people that are actually talented because they feel they need to compensate for their lack of talent.

show me 3 Paramore songs that actually have somewhat challenging chord/creative progressions.

[Iron Man]

Let me see. Ignorance, Misery Business, and Brick by Boring Brick. It won`t make a difference because I doubt you have listened to these songs. And of course, they are creative, because I haven`t heard anything remotely similar to Paramore yet. Also, define "challenging" in this sense.

Well I'll be honest, from some of your posts I'd thought you were a cocky douche (:P), but as your opinions in this thread show you have some taste and you've put your stuff out there I wanted to give you a fair crack (come on Marshki, eww to everything there? Really?) so I gave it all a listen.

Not sure why you posted the first track twice, but it was crap anyway :-D But seriously, if you like that sort of thing, do you like
VOOcJobuZTc
which is one of my faves.

My grandad is into Jethro Tull (I kind of like Broadsword and the Beast, especially "Beastie") ... not a fan of this one though.

I really, really wanted to hate Fred Eaglesmith but ... ok I liked that one. Damn you, and your catchy vanilla american country rock.

David Francy - yeah as a guitarist myself, that was a nice listen. I could see myself playing something like that. Might have to listen to some more of his stuff.

Kinks - couldn't play this one cos of UMG but I think I know them. Surprised me you putting that on there. I'll have to go re educate my ears.

Honestly I tend to really go for more club stuff a lot of the time. This is my favourate band at the moment (the video won a Yellow Pencil design award) :

While you're right about how no music from today will match music from "back in the day", but some of today's music isn't all that bad.Those songs about sex, money and stuff are usually the top 40 genre that the "in" crowd listens to. If you go beyond that to find singers like Regina Spektor, A Day to Remeber, or Of Montreal, you'll see that all of today's singers aren't that bad.
