Paramore

”There's a reason there are only three people left in Paramore,” she said.

Hayley also unfortunately had to officially cancel her 'Petals For Armor' tour.

”I had no idea the album would impact people the way it did back then, and I had no idea its legacy would last a decade later,” Bethany said.

The Garden, Las Rosas, White Mystery, Peach Kelli Pop, The Aquadolls, Surfbort, Olden Yolk and Bleached also responded after Burger Records responded to allegations of sexual misconduct against associated bands and employees, and ultimately shut down entirely.

”I’d actually hoped to cover a different song of hers live this year but I guess that will have to wait until some other time... anyway, this one has to be in my top 5.”

As we approach the 15th anniversary of Paramore's debut, this edition of In Defense of the Genre looks at their full studio discography and how they evolved and transcended their emo/pop punk roots like few others.

Inspired by the release of Hum's first album in 22 years, we put together a list of 28 essential songs that occupy the middle ground between shoegaze and heavier music - a sound which has existed for decades but is now more prominent than ever.

'Petals For Armor' is like a collage of every idea Hayley has wanted to try and never has before, and it features some of her most personal songwriting yet.

”I'm very sorry we wont see each other in real life soon. Eventually, though.”

The virtual music festival features performances from Flaming Lips, Korn, Cardi B, Paramore, Death Cab for Cutie, Weezer, The War on Drugs, Coldplay, and more.
