The results are not objective: Paramore being what they are, our responses to their music are highly individual and personal. Their oeuvre is intimidatingly vast and diverse for their ages, but we’ve attempted to rank 15 years of it – or at least, the album tracks – here.

Over the years, Paramore would work through and recover from lineup changes, interpersonal dramas and individual trauma, much of which was dealt with openly in their music. The band’s emotional lyrics and experimental approach to music would see them proving their longevity over the coming four albums, culminating with 2017’s synth-pop-filled ‘After Laughter’. With Williams as the powerful lead vocalist, Paramore also offered a much-needed female voice to the male-dominated scene. ‘All We Know Is Falling’ was a promising start to Paramore’s career and a worthy addition to the third wave of emo that was rapidly taking shape. After signing with Fueled By Ramen and adding a rhythm guitarist, they released their debut album ‘All We Know Is Falling’ in 2005. I am also a massive fan of After Laughter, obviously.After two Hayley Williams solo albums, Paramore have confirmed they’re back in the studio making their first album in five years.įorming as teenagers, Paramore was initially made up of Williams and her childhood friends Josh Farro, Zac Farro and Jeremy Davis. Honorable mentions (since Hayley Williams herself included them): In light of these rankings, I was inspired to list my own top five Paramore songs.Ĭan you tell that Brand New Eyes is my favorite Paramore album? To this day, the vocals in “All I Wanted” give me chills. Aside from the fact that the message of the song did not age well, I always found the song kind of repetitive and rather bland. While I don’t necessarily agree that Paramore’s two most recent albums are their best, I do agree that anything except “The Only Exception” could be the best song from Brand New Eyes. īasically, the last 2 paramore albums are our best. She followed up this tweet with two more, listing her top five Paramore songs minus After Laughter and her top five songs from Brand New Eyes.

Other than that, I highly respect this list.

Personally, I think having “Told You So” as number one is a HOT take. In case you missed it, Hayley Williams tweeted her personal top five Paramore songs last week.
