Paramore, "After Laughter"
This album's dark, depressed lyrics set against DayGlo pink synth-pop is oddly indicative of a band that's been through a lot together. And apart. In this episode, we talk about Hayley as the face of Paramore, the cracks formed by jealousy, and what happens when only one member of a band is signed on the record contract. Also, the time Hayley Williams almost left music for her marriage, the pressure to go solo, and why the gears of Paramore keep turning despite the fact that they should probably stop.
