Paramore Crater
Paramore is an American rock band from Franklin, Tennessee, formed in 2004. The band currently consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York and drummer Zac Farro.

The band is signed to Fueled by Ramen, a subsidiary of Atlantic Records, both owned by Warner Music Group.

She is also the only member to appear on all five of Paramore's studio albums. The group released its debut album, ''All We Know Is Falling'', in 2005, with the album reaching number four on the UK Rock Chart in 2009 and number thirty on '' Billboard''s Heatseekers Chart in 2006.

All We Know Is Falling
''All We Know Is Falling'' is the debut studio album by American rock band Paramore, released on July 26, 2005, under the Atlantic-distributed Fueled by Ramen in the United States. The production was led by James Paul Wisner, Mike Green, Nick Trevisick, and Roger Alan Nichols. The departure of bassist Jeremy Davis, which occurred a few days after arriving in Orlando, served as the album's main theme. This theme was reflected especially in the album's cover and title. Mostly categorized as a pop punk album, the album received mostly positive reviews and has been labeled a " scene classic". The album's production took place in Orlando, Florida. Instead of making a major push towards radio, the band's A&R recommended that the band build a fanbase through word of mouth. Initially, the album received positive reviews by music critics, praising the vocals of Hayley Williams. The album had a weak domestic commercial performance: it failed to enter the ''Billboard'' 200, though it did ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
