Petals for Armor/Last of Paramore?

this is even more low-key and Radiohead-y!

"now that i finally wanna live / the ones i love are dying"

Holy shit, Hayley! Can't wait to listen to this.

(the "holy shit" because I'm surprised that she released another one this soon)

i wasn't as big on "simmer" as the rest of you but this one is really nice

Both fantastic. This one is reminiscent of Radiohead, but also, like, a creepy understated Tori Amos b-side (“Honey”, maybe?).

Not a cover of the Living Colour song to my immense disappointment.

Another great song and video. She's a very good music video actor!

think this album is getting released in chunks. first one seems like it'll be out friday

Pre-orders out tomorrow and here's the album cover.

i believe we're getting two new songs tomorrow, "cinnamon" and "creepin'"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x7jORhJntM

seems like the first five tracks are on streaming services rn

(actually just apple music so far?)

These videos and songs have all been incredible so far.

ok now it's filtered to spotify

"creepin'" is so awesome

and "sudden desire" is the best one yet

cinnamon is kinda roisiny

"cinnnamon" is also kinda tune-yardsy

"creepin" rules though

This is the most ILM record ever (even after just 5 songs).

The next song released will be about how much she loves balloons.

"Cinnamon" is not bad.

lol xp

Not feeling "Cinnamon." Agree w/the Tune-Yards comment. "Creepin'" is better but the total batch here hasn't been as exciting to me as I expected given how big of a Paramore fan I've been since Riot!

Huh, I'm almost the opposite, in that I love all of this new stuff. But then, I've only really gotten into the last couple of Paramore records. Regardless, I love how these new songs *sound*. Who produced, is that all Taylor York?

"Simmer" for sure

it's all taylor york

I need to discuss it with him over Negronis.

The drummer is great, who is it?

aaron steel apparently

i was trying to get sound off that but is the claim just about the images in the video?

(I don't mean 'just about', that's all pretty blatant; wonder who directed it?)

I'm on board for everything but Sudden Desire. "simmer" likely to be a top ten end of year contender.

like this a lot

brilliant, again

OK, have not been following the singles releases since about mid-March when the world started falling the fuck apart. But apparently Hayley has been getting shit from some people online about the unorthodox release schedule. In response, she tweeted this video:

my album Petals For Armor drops - in full - May 8th 🌺

listen to Parts l & ll now, wherever you get your internet music. https://t.co/i3uc4v9mQ5 pic.twitter.com/FjDrN868Kw

And over the past couple days, some people on /r/paramore are just about shitting their beds over her calling out "men" about this. This thread in particular is just a nightmare, but there are a few others:

I dunno man. Maybe it'll just be a passing thing and blow over in a day or two, but it's weirding me out and giving me GamerGate vibes. I've been active on that sub since the last album came out and it feels like these butthurt dudes are just coming out of the woodwork.

heh, i like her chutzpah. fuck anyone who takes offense to that.

oh my god "Hard Times" was released around this time three years ago.

I'm still wondering why I even try.

this new one could be from 'after laughter'

Sorry if this was already shared but just caught Hayley w/ Jeff Tweedy on Colbert from a couple of weeks ago doing "Ffunny Friends" and was extremely impressed with her theramin solo.
