Is that good? But yeah, the cover is good, as far as pretty faithful covers go.

I don't actually know what Record Store Day Ambassadors are, but Paramore are one now.
After a long career in the music industry we have decided to announce that… we are going to continue to have a long career in the music industry (sorry for any inconvenience). Our first order of business as a freshly independent Paramore is to shine a light on independent record stores— a vital part of our journey from music obsessed school friends to professional music makers. With that being said, we are humbled to be your Ambassadors for Record Store Day 2024. The timing feels kismet. The discovery of music was always meant to be romantic. Indie record shops are some of the only spaces we’ve got that offer a tangible, tactile experience of music discovery. In this world that feels more disconnected and hostile than ever, it feels important to remain in touch (literally) with what inspires us, empowers us, or simply brings us joy. Thankfully, for all our sakes, there still survives among the chaos, the purity and radical simplicity of a great record store.

RSD Ambassadors work as the "face(s)" of that year's campaign, so they do press, appear in materials (posters, window decals etc.) distributed in advance to participating stores, and usually have one or more RSD exclusives devoted to them.

Paramore has announced that they “will not accept any acknowledgement or honor from the TN House” for its Grammy wins after a lawmaker objected to similar honors for singer/songwriter Allison Russell.The group accuse Tennessee’s Republican-led House of Representatives of “blatant racism” after a lawmaker paused a resolution honoring Black singer-songwriter Russell’s recent Grammy win.

if you're an emo band that put out an album last year, it's time to release a video for your closing track

great video though, perfectly matches the eeriness of the song

I was volunteering somewhere the other day, and one of the younger AmeriCorps employees was playing music, most of which was kind of gently quirky or nondescript emo/indie, none of which I recognized (or at least could identify). Then "This Is Why" came on ... and she walked right over to her phone and skipped it! I was shocked.
