Paramore - Ignorance



Paramore is an American rock band that formed in Franklin, Tennessee in 2004. Members are Hayley Williams (lead vocals/keyboards), Josh Farro (lead guitar/backing vocals), Jeremy Davis (bass guitar), Zac Farro (drums), and Taylor York (rhythm guitar).
The band has released 3 albums sofar, first "All We Know Is Falling" 2005, and their second album, "Riot!" 2007, "Brand New Eyes", Paramore's third album, was released on September 29, 2009. Brand New Eyes is the band's highest charting album to date and they are really growing as a band and the big success is in the door step.
Earlier this week they played at a sold out Arenan in Stockholm and next time it will be a bigger venue for sure. Did a fast visit there to see the stage that i earlier had built, looked nice with all the stuff hanging, but had no time to stay and watch as i was busy with Ace :)

Todays tune is the first single with the singer Haley Williams & Co's from their latest album "Brand New Eyes",

Frontwoman Hayley Williams talked to Kerrang! about the meaning of the song in question.
"In my eyes, this song is a huge turning point for the band. The truth of it is, growing up is not easy. We’re five different people who have to work towards the same goal on a daily basis. There were a lot of times when I felt really alone or angry or insecure. I don’t always feel good at confronting people, especially people that I love, like these guys. Sometimes it takes songs to get the point across. The song is from one person’s perspective. It’s unfair that I’m the one who gets to talk about it but it helped me a lot. The line ‘ignorance is your new best friend’ is about how I felt I was losing people, and I think the band did too. But it’s okay, we’re growing up. I love that song."

Enjoy!

Green Day - Know Your Enemy


Green Day came to Sweden , Stockholm on saturday and
playd for a very full The Ericsson Globe.

On saturday they shopped, doing some studio work
and paid a visit at Sturehof.
Then on Sunday they did a very happy and energic gig.
With a lots of pyro!



Green Day is an American rock trio formed in 1987.
Todays members are:
Billie Joe Armstrong – lead vocals, lead & rhythm guitars (1987–present)
Mike Dirnt – bass, backing vocals (1987–present)
Tré Cool – drums, percussion, backing vocals (1990–present)
with

Jason Freese – keyboards, piano, acoustic guitar, trombone, saxophone, accordion, backing vocals (2003–present)

Green Day has sold over 22 million records in the United States.
They have won three Grammy Awards;
Best Alternative Album for Dookie,
Best Rock Album for American Idiot,
and Record of the Year for "Boulevard of Broken Dreams".

The band also joined the lineups of both the
Lollapalooza festival and Woodstock 1994,
where they started an infamous mud fight.
During the concert, a security guard mistook
bassist Mike Dirnt for a stage-invading fan and
punched out some of his teeth.
Viewed by millions via pay-per-view television,
the Woodstock 1994 performance further aided Green Day's
growing publicity and recognition,
and helped push its album to eventual diamond status.

Here is a Tune from their latest album "21st Century Breakdown"
(the 8th studio album)

Cheers, Thetania
