Riot! is an iconic Paramore album, especially since it was their second album, and many bands go through a sophomore slump.<\/p>\n<p>Hard Times, their newest single,\u00a0however, still has a bit of edgy to it, but it&#8217;s, dare I say, funky? The song definitely has an 80&#8217;s theme to it, and the music video matches the song almost perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>I was a bit surprised to hear it at first, but nonetheless, I love it. It&#8217;s just not something that I was used to. Their fourth album was definitely a little bit more pop than their previous albums, but the one thing that I like about Paramore is that since they are signed to Fueled by Ramen, they get all of the decision making in what their music is going to sound like. They&#8217;re not forcing themselves to sound more pop because that&#8217;s what is popular, but they are doing what\u00a0<em>they<\/em> enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I would recommend the song, it&#8217;s so catchy, the lyrics are great, the music video is great. 100% listen to it if you like any type of 80&#8217;s pop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PARAMORE IS BACK AFTER FOUR YEARS!
