She's a great singer. Their drum lines were furious punk sound. She is beautiful. Whether they started out as an industry creation they earned legitimate clout .
I actually got into this band because of the fooofaferrit brief history video. I identified with them. They soon became one of my favorite bands. I love every record.
Great video! Although I was familiar with Paramore and liked many of their earlier songs, I didn't become a fan until After Laughter (2017). Their musical growth in the past decade has been revelatory. Thank you for taking the time to share their story!
I remember hearing Misery Business for the first time in the summer of 2007 on the local college radio station. By Winter, the "local" top 40 station finally started playing it, saying "you heard it here first" which made me laugh
I remember when Riot came out and thinking these guys have a really good sound. That album was fantastic with the majority of the songs having the potential to be hits if the studios had chosen to promote them that way. That was also the time when the merest mention of a band having Christian leanings was a death warrant, and it wouldn't matter if they weren't preachy or a true christian band. Personally I'm not religious and never gave a damn what anyone believed or did, but a knew what sounded good and williams and the band were it. Williams is still on my favorite singers list despite the solo adventure that was less than bad.
Hayley Williams and Paramore have cited Geddy Lee and Rush as one of their influences, according to numerous sources. You can hear the Geddy/Rush influence on their prog-rock sounding hit "The News" from their most recent album. You also hear a bit of Geddy/Rush in their hit song from the Twilight series "Decode."
There's something I noticed about that explosion of emo-tinged bands in the 2000s with groups like Dashboard Confessional, Jimmy Eat World, Thursday, etc. They would often say that they were 'real' because they wrote songs about 'real relationships' and 'real heartache'. Even the heavier hardcore bands I listened to like Converge could be guilty of that. A huge percentage of the most famous rock and blues songs are about painful and torturous breakups, what were those moppy haired emo goofballs smoking? They thought they came up with that? It just seemed like a dumb flex regarding songwriting.
The 90s birthed true 'emo' music about brutal heartache, misery and self loathing. The 2000s took that and turned it into baby's first breakup for suburban kids with rich parents and nothing to rebel against
@@robwalsh9843 Not all 'nu metal' is bad .. but I guess that would depend on which bands you'd put in that category. There was also a lot of really bad second string 'Grunge' bands that I couldn't stand.
Great vid! by the time Paramore came out i was more into the burgeoning deathcore and general metal and hardcore punk scene but all the scene girls i knew LOOOOVED Paramore. i was more into Job For A Cowboy, Heavy Heavy Low Low, The Chariot, Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, and etc lol
If I recall, they started out as a Christian band. I remember hearing "Emergency" on the XM Channel called Torch, which was a Christian Rock/Metal channel. I even remember seeing footage of Hayley sharing her faith.
I listen to all sorts of music from pop to extreme and experimental music and at the end of the day it doesn’t matter if they were manufactured if the music is good that’s all that matters!!! And paramore have consistently made great music for decades now !!!
Always been a fan and been to several concerts. Knowing her background more makes me relate to her even more. I completely understand coming from a broken home and just wanting a strong family unit.
Hayley is great but for her to say she couldn't find kids into music in Meridian, MS is hilarious. Being from there myself I can tell you music is a huge part of this area. I mean Hartley Peavey is here. I was in 3 or 4 bands at one time on top of being in the school jazz band. None were country bands by the way.
You do realize he literally mentioned in this video that she left meridian because she had an abusive father, right? Being raised in a super Cristian community in Mississippi definitely doesn't lend itself to the type of music she wanted to make
I didn't know anything about this band except that they were from Franklin Tn, a lot of write ups about them in local newspapers when they broke through. There was one Paramore tshirt left at the local Hot Topic this Christmas. That says something.😊 Thanks for the video.
Funny, there were good, real punk bands in Franklin, but Paramore was never one of them. Did they play at Lucy’s or Indienet? Plaster should have had this success. They weren’t manufactured by the record industry though.
Back in 08 I saw them in a music magazine thinking, yeah she has a look about her. However the songs I heard werent that captivating. Im in my late 40s so maybe it was too late
I was in an old switching station about 6 years ago in the middle of nowhere Michigan and i came across some guys desk that had Paramore posters all over it. I took a closer look and multiple posters were signed by the band and there were multiple personal messages from Haley thanking him so much for his influence on her and her band. It was strange. I don’t know who the guy was but evidently he was important to them. Anyway I don’t know. Thought I would share.
So, yes, they are corporate music. I did learn something new about Fueled By Ramen... basically a clandestine corporate label maquesrading as a DIY punk label. Honestly, pretty disappointed to find that out.
This video exemplifies brain rot. Every single original band member of paramore was a prodigy. What Zac was doing on the drums at 12 and 13 years old is unfathomable.
I saw them playing some small stage on warped tour maybe 15 years ago or longer and they looked young but actually toured, so not studio musicians. Real nuff band
Please bring back the clues for next week's videos, Sidd. That was the best part - for us all to guess who you're covering in the coming week. I know a few trolls kind of ruined that portion, but don't let the haters spoil the fun for you.
I think i was a little too old for them when they came out because they looked like corporate tennybopper BS, but I did eventually see them at Riot Fest in 2017 and they put on a great show.
i'm from nashville and franklin isn't a suburb, it's a different city that's fairly close but it is known for people that have money. it seems like they got insanely lucky in the beginning to get that kind of deal and be able to tour in high school. not really a fan but it is interesting to hear details of bands, especially ones from my town, or close to it.

A rock star without scandals seems to be a scandal in its own right. Strange times we are living in. I admire Paramore for being good musicians and songwriters. If you are only interested in Willams then there are always her solo projects (which are quite good too).
This was a good video. Has more positivity than others. It didn't make me feel bad. I have a suggestion and my apologies if it's already been done. I request a video about the Dirty rotten imbeciles. I still love those guys.
While I wasn't really into their later stuff post Riot, Istill have fond memories when I first discovered them back in 2005 with "Pressure" and "Emergency". I can't exactly remember how I came across them, it was probably MySpace or the the Fuse channel back in the day but either way, I did like the sound at the time. "Misery Business" played so much that it's forever burned in my brain and so was "CrushCrushCrush" but around that time, I was kinda losing interest in them mainly because a good few female fronted bands that came out after them were trying to imitate their sound. The whole modern (at the time) "atlternative" sound with a female vocalist using a pop-like voice. Bands like Hey Monday, New Year's Day, VersaEmerge, and Icon For Hire are some that come to mind but either way, I just noticed that a lot of female singers at the time were singing in that "pop" voice and it was just so over saturated. With "Riot", I can see why some didn't really care for it as much as "All We Know IS Falling" because it was a somewhat change in tone, "All We Know" seemed a tad more raw in comparison but for me anyway, "Riot" was passable and even fun at times. Either way, I'm not surprised at Paramore's success, they had just enough publicity and attention to get them out there and their sound was decent and accessible, a good bridge for newcomers of rock-type music with relatable lyrics to those of us who were teens at the time lol.
It's kind of hilarious seeing how many people in these comments actually think hayley is a plant. She had so many opportunities to be much larger than she is and always turned them down to be true to her roots. Yall are insane
I have no way to verify, but I live in Nashville, and I once worked with a local musician who used to be in some would-be up-and-coming bands who had a big chip on his shoulder because he was convinced Paramore had stolen his band's music and gotten famous off it.
oh Hayley's has had it tough but not really as rough as most kids who's parents got divorced. Having all paid van music tours was very privileged Jewel lived in her car performing at a coffee shop.
Please do a video on Fuel. What happened to John Corsale? Dude did a killer album with them and bounced. Toryn Green did a really good album and was gone. So much to tell that we know little about.
Never got into Paramore's music, although the radio tried to convince me otherwise. Even if their brand of emo pop punk didn't do much for me, I'd still take note of when a new album was released. And I enjoyed learning about the band's history.
They are a manufactured band and I don't understand why people get so furious about it. It doesn't mean they have no talent, but it's so obvious because the industry wanted Hayley as a solo artist and she was the only member with a contract. The other members were always treated as a musicians working for a solo singer. Hayley's mother working as a coach for Disney stars means A LOT and makes it more and more obvious: Hayley was raised by her family to be a star. I don't know the next fact is true, but I heard about an ex-boyfriend of Hayley breaking their relashionship because she was so obsessed with fame way before Paramore even exists.
@@rnrtruestoriestheir drummer is ridiculously good. On those first 3 albums he was definitely all about playing as hard as he could, but after he rejoined in 2016, he came back a much more well-rounded drummer. Better technique, more groove/pocket-based playing.
Funny enough that’s how I found out about paramore, I played the sims, and that song came on, lol I can’t remember how I found the actual song though , because it was all gibberish
The mother being a “life coach for up-and-coming Disney stars” tells you everything you need to know about this whole nonsense. It was always about the singer.
lol at the negative comments, all from guys too, typical... RnRTS covers all kinds of musical topics, plenty to offer on this channel, don't like one topic/band skip to another... If you can define yourself by your haters I think Paramore and Hailey are doing just fine and just shows proof of their undeniable impact on popular music and pop culture in general ...
Well, it may not be a county in *Tennessee*, which is what I think you probably mean (IDK, for sure 🤷🏻♀) but the statement: “Franklin isn’t a county,” is false. There is a county called Franklin in Ohio.
Aloha! This was the first vid or yours I've watched. And that's because I just discovered Paramore...yes I know, I've been living under a rock! But I became interested because The Warning are Paramore fans...And I most definitely am a fan of The Warning. So how about a deep dive into The Warning like you did for Paramore? #APDVillaReality
under represented as Musicians for Black Rock? Is she talking about All Black bands like Radkey? Or have Black members like Fall Out Boy. I can think of quite a bit of Mixed bands in grunge, punk and Rock . POD, RATM, Soundgarden, Deftones, Sneaker Pimps, Mazzy Star, System of a Down (All Armenian Group), Foo Fighters/Nirvana (Pat Smear), Jane's Addiction. FEA, 6 Speed Supernova and the list goes on and on. I am loving De Wayne and Ayron Jones as well.
She's a white liberal woman. Any time they ever do anything is the first time anyone has ever done it. Like when Jennifer Lawrence said she was the first female action star for being in Hunger Games. I mean, if Haley Williams didn't bring them up on stage how would they ever get there on their own?
The story about the kids in Nashville picking on her southern accent made me press X to doubt. Southerners don't usually pick on each other's accents... Unless it is a Cajun Creole accent. Nobody else can understand what the hell they are saying.
Her mom is a 'life coach' for up and coming Disney stars. 😂 .. I get the feeling these people are way more connected than they let on. I doubt their personal history is exactly what they're describing. I could be wrong though. Still like the band and Haley is fine as hell.
Kids are kids and will find anything to single you out as different. They will zero in on the most banal things at times, so this is not that far of a stretch.
It was always about the singer presented as a rock chick for male, female and family audience, so they needed a band around her, without looking like No Doubt.
They make up 2008 and Haley said in the interview it was such an awful year for her she didn’t want a house with any of those numbers. Superstitious I guess
You must be a very good documented because I am no fan of paramours, barely know 3 songs of this group and just don’t enjoy them, yet I sat through and watched that entire upload eiih interest, so I guess hard off, great work.
Agreed, that is a good, no great comment. Never having listened to any post 2000 emo I have to say that I have never heard a note from this band. I too went to the end because of the quality of the video. Still don't know what they sound like....\__😮__/
I remember not long ago Paramore's TH-cam account made a post about re-releasing one of their earlier albums, but updated the art to not feature the rest of the band and just Hayley, and her caption said "Much better" or something similar. That just says so much about her.
And their first song I heard was her proudly slut-shaming. Wasn't a good look. Then I heard that the rest of the band members were treated as backing players by the label and after that I was a little biased against them (and her).
Its not like they did this because she wanted to make it all about herself. The original self-titled album cover featured Jeremy Davis on it and after all the shitty things he tried to do to sabatoge the band as he left, it makes sense for them to want to remove him from the album art. Especially since Jeremy had almost no contributions to writing the actual songs on the record. Using this to try and make hayley look like a bad person is just ignorant
@kegsofvomitspit I observed what she did and commented on it. I didn't hear any story and honestly didn't even really watch this video. Not saying she isn't talented, she is. She's even done an incredible cover of one of my favorite songs that's better than the original. I just don't care for her personality. 🤷
Wish the label still owned them, their new music is hot garbage because of Hayley’s mental problems. Now she’s out here reading scripts so she can be a political shill.
Want more modern bands like this on my channel? Btw the amount of Butt hurt people because I covered one band they don’t like is hilarious.
More scene 2000s bands like this would be great.
Still waiting for an episode on Treble Charger.

I have no way to verify, but I live in Nashville, and I once worked with a local musician who used to be in some would-be up-and-coming bands who had a big chip on his shoulder because he was convinced Paramore had stolen his band's music and gotten famous off it.
oh Hayley's has had it tough but not really as rough as most kids who's parents got divorced. Having all paid van music tours was very privileged Jewel lived in her car performing at a coffee shop.
Please do a video on Fuel. What happened to John Corsale? Dude did a killer album with them and bounced. Toryn Green did a really good album and was gone. So much to tell that we know little about.
Back when label was just wanting her as a solo artist .. she could've done both.
Never got into Paramore's music, although the radio tried to convince me otherwise. Even if their brand of emo pop punk didn't do much for me, I'd still take note of when a new album was released. And I enjoyed learning about the band's history.
😅 "the radio!!" 😱Glad you were able to form your own opinions, bro. Very stunning and brave of you 🏆
Grammy does not equal quality, it has become an award equivalent to mtv music awards.
Saw Paramore back in 2005, opening up for Cartel. I knew immediately they would be huge.
They are a manufactured band and I don't understand why people get so furious about it. It doesn't mean they have no talent, but it's so obvious because the industry wanted Hayley as a solo artist and she was the only member with a contract. The other members were always treated as a musicians working for a solo singer. Hayley's mother working as a coach for Disney stars means A LOT and makes it more and more obvious: Hayley was raised by her family to be a star. I don't know the next fact is true, but I heard about an ex-boyfriend of Hayley breaking their relashionship because she was so obsessed with fame way before Paramore even exists.
Never could get into their music. The guitars need just a little more gain or overdrive added. I don't know, their whole tone is missing something.
I've always been a big fan of their drummer. I always thought their early albums had some great drum parts.
@@rnrtruestoriestheir drummer is ridiculously good. On those first 3 albums he was definitely all about playing as hard as he could, but after he rejoined in 2016, he came back a much more well-rounded drummer. Better technique, more groove/pocket-based playing.
If the music is good, I don't care if they were manufactured or not.
The music isn't good
I love Paramore. Hailey was much needed for girls.
Funny enough that’s how I found out about paramore, I played the sims, and that song came on, lol I can’t remember how I found the actual song though , because it was all gibberish
I was this old when I heard about misery business
you are a great narrator and have a lot of wisdom Jesus Loves You
That last line had me laughing so hard!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 "And her mom moved to LA and is a life coach to Disney stars"...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂😅😆😆😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🎬
Pls do Switchfoot next
I was literally thinking about them the other day.
The mother being a “life coach for up-and-coming Disney stars” tells you everything you need to know about this whole nonsense. It was always about the singer.
lol at the negative comments, all from guys too, typical... RnRTS covers all kinds of musical topics, plenty to offer on this channel, don't like one topic/band skip to another... If you can define yourself by your haters I think Paramore and Hailey are doing just fine and just shows proof of their undeniable impact on popular music and pop culture in general ...
Lol at you trying your best to say something relative but sounding like a signaling simp.
Franklin isn’t a county. It’s a city in Williamson county
Well, it may not be a county in *Tennessee*, which is what I think you probably mean (IDK, for sure 🤷🏻♀) but the statement: “Franklin isn’t a county,” is false. There is a county called Franklin in Ohio.
Legendary band
Aloha! This was the first vid or yours I've watched. And that's because I just discovered Paramore...yes I know, I've been living under a rock! But I became interested because The Warning are Paramore fans...And I most definitely am a fan of The Warning. So how about a deep dive into The Warning like you did for Paramore? #APDVillaReality
under represented as Musicians for Black Rock? Is she talking about All Black bands like Radkey? Or have Black members like Fall Out Boy. I can think of quite a bit of Mixed bands in grunge, punk and Rock . POD, RATM, Soundgarden, Deftones, Sneaker Pimps, Mazzy Star, System of a Down (All Armenian Group), Foo Fighters/Nirvana (Pat Smear), Jane's Addiction. FEA, 6 Speed Supernova and the list goes on and on. I am loving De Wayne and Ayron Jones as well.
Right? Plenty of black dudes in the metal community too
She's a white liberal woman. Any time they ever do anything is the first time anyone has ever done it. Like when Jennifer Lawrence said she was the first female action star for being in Hunger Games.
I mean, if Haley Williams didn't bring them up on stage how would they ever get there on their own?
After Laughter was their best album
It’s my personal favorite.
Absolutely
Please, do an episode on Mutemath.
So many a-holes try to tear the band down, despite the popularity and well-crafted songs. I 'd like to see the accusers play music.
Its funny you used clips from when they played for 97X Green room, I was there!
The story about the kids in Nashville picking on her southern accent made me press X to doubt. Southerners don't usually pick on each other's accents... Unless it is a Cajun Creole accent. Nobody else can understand what the hell they are saying.
Her mom is a 'life coach' for up and coming Disney stars. 😂 .. I get the feeling these people are way more connected than they let on. I doubt their personal history is exactly what they're describing. I could be wrong though. Still like the band and Haley is fine as hell.
Kids are kids and will find anything to single you out as different. They will zero in on the most banal things at times, so this is not that far of a stretch.
Why would kids from the south make fun of a girl with a southern accent?
The way this guys says "drama", like fingernails on a chalk board.
No way! An attractive front woman got every advantage possible in the music industry to the point where the whole thing is sus???
Still Into You, does not sound like Paramore
I enjoyed the shit out of their last album.
It was always about the singer presented as a rock chick for male, female and family audience, so they needed a band around her, without looking like No Doubt.
What's wrong with the numbers 2, 0, and 8?
They make up 2008 and Haley said in the interview it was such an awful year for her she didn’t want a house with any of those numbers. Superstitious I guess
They're all even, not prime numbers which are objectively superior
Launchpad McQuack
Just everyone knows 99% bands are manufactured through the record companies. The 1% is straight lithium.
I’m not entirely sure I’ve heard a single song from them? I guess I can check it out ……. I guess…
Seems like a record company concoction nowadays, especially since the dudes who wrote the early hits left.
Future is a great, paramore song....anddecode
Sounds like mom just pimped her out to the music industry
You must be a very good documented because I am no fan of paramours, barely know 3 songs of this group and just don’t enjoy them, yet I sat through and watched that entire upload eiih interest, so I guess hard off, great work.
Thank you! That’s honestly the best type of comment I see 😊
Agreed, that is a good, no great comment. Never having listened to any post 2000 emo I have to say that I have never heard a note from this band. I too went to the end because of the quality of the video. Still don't know what they sound like....\__😮__/
I liked it, but the clickbait-y “FAKE BAND?” thing is terrible. (And no one even tries to answer that question anyway loll)
I remember not long ago Paramore's TH-cam account made a post about re-releasing one of their earlier albums, but updated the art to not feature the rest of the band and just Hayley, and her caption said "Much better" or something similar.
That just says so much about her.
And their first song I heard was her proudly slut-shaming. Wasn't a good look. Then I heard that the rest of the band members were treated as backing players by the label and after that I was a little biased against them (and her).
Its not like they did this because she wanted to make it all about herself. The original self-titled album cover featured Jeremy Davis on it and after all the shitty things he tried to do to sabatoge the band as he left, it makes sense for them to want to remove him from the album art. Especially since Jeremy had almost no contributions to writing the actual songs on the record. Using this to try and make hayley look like a bad person is just ignorant
@josephhons1031 Even if they left one of them off why not leave the rest of the band? Still just extremely selfish.
So you heard a story and decided to jump to a wild conclusion based upon that story?
You sound like a super smart person.
@kegsofvomitspit I observed what she did and commented on it. I didn't hear any story and honestly didn't even really watch this video.
Not saying she isn't talented, she is. She's even done an incredible cover of one of my favorite songs that's better than the original. I just don't care for her personality. 🤷
I'm glad their doing well. They've been my fav since I was a kid. Except for Josh. Fvck em.
Okay...wait...into you was not their first song....🤯
Riot was a pretty good rock album. After that though they completely turned into a pop band.
Man, I wish Josh would come back, he was a good guitarist.
Wish the label still owned them, their new music is hot garbage because of Hayley’s mental problems. Now she’s out here reading scripts so she can be a political shill.
I heard them and thought they came from some 90s or early 2000s teen tv show.
*DRAHMA*
Only thing you learn from is the lead singer from a video. Damn. I thought her thigh was scarred and it was a cross
