On 28 Sept., Paramore sent waves through the rock and emo community when they released "This Is Why," the lead single from their upcoming studio album of the same name. In an interview with Pitchfork in September, lead singer Hayley Williams said the song "summarizes the plethora of ridiculous emotions, the rollercoaster of being alive in 2022, having survived even just the last three or four years."
The album will be the band's first since "After Laughter" in 2017 and will feature tracks like "Running Out of Time," "Big Man, Little Dignity," and "Liar." "This Is Why" is expected to drop on 10 Feb., 2023.
