Private Notes
Paramore have risen victorious with their latest self-titled album, embellishing their furious emo roots with some high-octane pop. After band mates Josh and Zac Farro sensationally quit the band in 2010, their fourth album is a sure sign that this three-piece from Tennessee are back and ready for business, continuing their dominance of the charts and our hearts.
