More Surprise From Paramore
Aside from the upcoming festival, Paramore prepared something for fans who have been waiting for them.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Williams confirmed that the band went back in the studio to create their first album in five years.
"We kept joking it was all downhill from that point, but thank God we've been surprised a lot throughout this whole thing. I'm always waiting for the moment for us to know we're onto something new and we're not just rehashing the same sh-t," she said.
The new album will follow their last project, "After Laughter," in 2017. She did not reveal their target release date, but she did mention that the earliest songwriting sessions had already taken place in Nashville. However, they are expected to continue working on it in a different studio since they relocated to California.
Per the lead singer, they go to the studio around 10:00 a.m. and leave around 7:00 p.m. or 8:00 p.m.
Paramore's next LP will also be the trio's first project they would finish together.
"It's really exciting because the three of us have completely different strengths when it comes to creating. It's making the music and just the whole process of making a Paramore album feel completely new," she went on.
