Paramore Reveal Producer For Fourth Album

Indie | Thursday 19th April 2012 | Osh

Justin Meldal- Johnsen is the producer for Paramore’s upcoming fourth album. You may have heard the name before because he’s the bassist for Beck and Nine Inch Nails.

The band are currently working on the follow- up of Brand New Eyes which came out in 2009. Up until now they had recorded and completed one track called Daydreaming.

The writing process has been hard for the band but frontwoman Hayley Williams said that the inspiration came in January. Williams wrote this on the band’s website: "The first few months of writing were ridiculously draining and a lot more of a pain than a pleasure. It was supposed to be fun right? We made it all the way to this point to just struggle some more. So, you can probably imagine that when the flood gates burst this past January and inspiration started filling us up again, we were more than willing to let it take us wherever it wanted. We've written a lot of songs I never thought we would write. And we aren't done yet! The writing will continue even as we enter the studio." 

The singer went on to say that they’re not in a rush to finish this album and that she couldn’t guarantee that it would be released before the end of 2012. "We're working on a pretty strange schedule, by our standards. There has never been so much time and care put into a Paramore album. Usually, we are rushing to make a very strict deadline which so far has just not been right for this record. We cannot assure you it will be out this year." 

This summer though, we are sure to see Paramore at the Reading Festival and at Leeds on 24th- 25th August under headliners The Cure.
