ParamoreRiot!
Released 2007
Atlantic Recording Corporation
4 1/2 stars
This composition of 11 head-bobbing, heart-warming, feel-good songs not only gets the body going, but makes the listener actually hear the songs and take them in. This album, one of the best I have heard by far, makes you really listen to the messages that the artists are trying to send across.
The message in track number 4, Misery Business, is the story of a girl awaiting the boy of her dreams to realize her existence. This song not only has a great beat, but has a moral issue of girl wanting boy, boy wanting another girl, but in the end realizing that he wants the original girl. It is one that would get stuck in your head for hours.
Track number 10, Fences, takes a different spin on the band's normal route. This song shows just how much Paramore is capable of giving a great tune along with a catchy song.
All though this album is brilliant in all ways possible, you cannot help but notice how much the songs sound similar. Even when these beats, tunes, and lyrics are obviously all different, it is sometimes hard to remember some of their songs because something about them sound similar. I would love to see an album by Paramore that is both unique, but keeps the same intentions and sound as the old Paramore.
Overall, this album not only caught my attention, but kept me listening over and over again. Great work Paramore!

I really liked Coco's review of Paramore's album. I thought it was well written and very detailed. Good job Coco!
Coco I enjoyed your album review. I think that it sounded very professional and kinda like it was from a magazine. I like that you didn't give it all 5 stars. I also liked the descriptive and typical words that you used, such as "heart-warming" and "feel-good". I read your review before writing my own and I found it to be very helpful. Good job and keep up the good work!
Cocolicious!!! I liked reading your interview especially because i know how much you love the album. I was really impressed with how much you knew about the songs (Misery Business) and it seemed like you really did your research. [Although i know it wasn't necessary with your natural love for the band.] Overall good job, i think you perfectly captured the idea of the album and my opinions match yours exactly. What can i say, brilliant minds think alike... then again, so to completely crazy minds. So... which are we? -PO
