paramore - after laughter - recording and anticipation

That sucks about the Lennox album.

More acts should do what Trent Reznor did and just leave new songs on thumb drives in public bathrooms.

If you use a streaming service that brings to your attention new releases by artists you've listened to before (as Spotify does), then a steady drip of content is also going to bring the artist to the top of your "feed" and more occasions, resulting in a greater likelihood of you remembering to listen.

longer rollouts make sense in a world where people are constantly moving onto the next thing. the longer the rollout, the longer the conversation lasts.

it reminds me of streaming television switching away from the binge model

it’s funny because in the cd era, album rollout would routinely take months, and now we’re back baby

Isn't that an attempt to stop people constantly switching between streaming platforms? If you release episodes over more than five weeks, users will have to keep their subscription for more than a month, rather than bingeing it all in a month then switching over to another platform.

beyonce's was pretty compact compared to all these other examples though - announced two months before release, lead single a month before release, that's it

yeah but still there seemed to be an expectation that it would just drop suddenly whenever but they clearly went a different route if not to the extent as some of these others

i think netflix et al saw the same thing about shows dropping all at once and then falling out of the cultural conversation a very short time later

Ugh! Imagine awakening to this news:

Hayley Williams and Taylor York are officially dating pic.twitter.com/OevKzJ23T1

I like how she lets the audience handle the offending lyric.

This is too good

guessing the lack of Chicago means Lollapalooza... boo hiss

got a ticket for their show here in Toronto, nosebleeds for $60, which is just about how much i'm willing to pay to see them

Three times in the last week I thought "maybe I will try to get tickets to see such and such," and all three times I learned that the show already happened, including Paramore's.

I forgot that tickets went on sale today! The cheapest nosebleeds left in DC are $125 plus fees, and to be honest that's just not worth it to me. Oh well.

8 years ago - arguably at the height of their popularity, co-headlining with Fall Out Boy - the cost of my ticket, fees included, was half of that. Insane

And that was also in the DC area, just so we're comparing apples

Completely awesome performance of "This Is Why" on of all things The Tonight Show.

Huh. There's some pretty wild stuff going on in that song.

Albums covers Music Videos that depict the artists hanging out with their clones

Rockin tune

Love it. These songs compliment each other very well and I can't wait to hear them in the context of the full record.

Just noticed how much she looks like British actress Amelia Bullmore. Anyway, amazing song, never given Paramore a second thought before now but I love both of these new songs.

this album's gonna rule

I like it.

The subtle little Whammy-pedal bend by Taylor in the chorus rules.

Really like this one too. Feels like they're kind of stitching together all of the stuff they do well, the pop and the emo and the postpunk.

sounds like a great BNE evolution - really appreciate how they kept it at a tight 3 minutes.

these new songs are so fucking good

The newest single, c'est comme ca, is out now.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tGeMr5iXoA

love this, very much pro paramore going post-punk

For each song in the rollout, my initial reaction has been "I don't know. Am I on board with this? Does this do it for me?" And then I listen to it 2 or 3 more times before my mind latches onto it and after that, I listen to it for the rest of the day.

yeah not sure about this but I didn't like after laughter at first either so I assume I'll love it soon

There’s a real cohesion in sound when you listen to all three songs in a row - feels like they’ve been listening to a lot of early 00s dance/post-punk

Hayley mentioned Dry Cleaning and Yard Act as inspirations for the latest track, which makes sense
