ITT: Bands which successfully reinvented themselves. Paramore

>>73305428
We knew this sense 2013 m8

>>73305443
They did a 180 and are no longer pop-punk. Its more of a synthwave/funk/afrobeat now. Hence the reinvention

they never sucked

>And I gotta get to rock bottom
I can't take Hayley Williams and her "depression" seriously.

>>73305542
you mean 360

>>73305542
t. Hasn't listened to s/t

>>73305542

They had already reinvented themselves once, on the self-titled from (I believe) 2013. They had a much bleaker sound and even had a sort of noisy post-rock track. So this is their second reinvention (and I'm fairly certain the next album will also be something totally different).

>>73306403
Notice how the thread says "successfully reinvented themselves". I'm aware paramore have reinvented themselves like 5 times, but they weren't very successful at that. I'd say that the 5 year hiatus is a dead giveaway

s/t > After Laughter

Paramore is the Talk Talk of our generation

Just wait and see

>>73305428
this album was a total change of pace for em and it sounds fuckin great imo. i only ever liked paramore previously for their occassional hit, i could never really get into their stuff. then this album came out and it was sick af

>>73305428
>Paramore no longer sucks
they never sucked, pal. their debut - decent, riot - great, brand new eyes - still great, paramore - their best, after laughter - their second best.

>>73306858
This. The members all have better music taste than their contemporaries and are more willing than ever to experiment.

Seriously, they all have some pretty great taste.

>>73306858
Holy shit I hope so

>>73309118
Experiments don't always work out well. Brokencyde did something no-one else had done before.

>>73309344
Yeah but After Laughter was a pretty big success among the commercial audience and critics

>>73305747
Me too. Her lyrics are full cringe for me.

i appreciated the instrumentation but i really wish the lyrics weren't straight out of a 14 year old's diary circa 2006

Never really been much of a fan of their earlier work until the self-titled album came in 2013.

>Talk Talk of our generation
what did she mean by this?

>>73305428
They never sucked.

>>73309344
>Brokencyde did something no-one else had done before.

And it was patrician as fuck. You have shit taste

I really tried to like this album but it felt so soulless.

>>73305774
360 means you go back to the same position, so, no

>soulless
How?

>>73309317
Huh, I've never seen this one before.

>>73305428
I really really like this song and pretty much nothing else by them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH9A6tn_P6g

idle Worship is the best song. Although Hard Times is still catchy as it was when I first listened to it.

>>73315749
That is okay, anon, everyone is allowed to like their own stuff.

>>73312038
U mad yo?

It's still mellow/melodic pop for teens and teens. They hardly reinvented themselves, just added a synth pop flavor.

>>73316019
I can't tell if summer or bait
How do you guys tel the difference I've only been here for like 3 years

>>73319207
>mellow
they're not that mellow. their older songs such as brick by boring brick were heavy by mainstream standards. also they're still energetic. that's hardly mellow. it's not their fault if you listen to extreme metal all day long.

>>73319806
you reply and if they say >taking the bait
just say your reply was bait

>>73320585
Good old "I'm not retarded, it was bait!!!" Because it's probably exactly what they did

Hard Times is a total banger. The rest of it's great too, especially Rose Colored Boy and 26.

>>73312038
kek so hard

>>73305428
Swans did this like 4 times.

>>73312038
What makes this more amusing now is that, including this one, there are three Paramore threads up on /mu/ right now.
