  • Oct. 2, 2017 | Lars Gotrich -- Paramore's After Laughter captures the moment between rapture and its comedown, the glitter wiped away, left with skin rubbed raw. It's a record, more than a decade into the band's career, that not only exposes the sparkling pop that's always lit Paramore's songs, but also deals with the ache of growing up and growing apart. When Hayley Williams sings, "Tell my friends I'm coming down / We'll kick it when I hit the ground" from the '80s-tastic jam "Hard Times" at the Tiny Desk, the stark dichotomy is laid bare by the band's stripped-down performance that still packs a small synth and Zac Farro's drum machine into its Afro-pop-flecked textures.
    Backed here only by guitarist Taylor York, "26" is Williams' letter to a younger self, to still believe in dreams, knowing its costs. Paramore's quieter songs have never quite shown this depth of understated devastation and determination, and Williams reflects that nuance in a voice that scales the end of the line, "And they say that dreaming is free," with just the slightest trail of regret.
    These songs extend After Laughter's themes, racing across the spectrum of hope, with "Fake Happy" as a soaring anthem to expressing your truest self (and calling out those playing pretend). At the Tiny Desk, the shimmering guitars and synths almost become tropical, as if the band's all taken a big swig of Drake's "Passionfruit" and started a lowkey jam among friends.

    "26"
    "Fake Happy"
    MUSICIANS

      @francissiu9549 4 года назад +48

      I think the reason it’s transparent is that it’s the only song that describes what we should be holding onto and that is hope whereas the other songs describes the feelings and what we use to put on a facade. I may be wrong though but that’s how I interpret on why 26 is a transparent song.
      It’s not the most upbeat song from all the other songs too.
      Always compare that song to the others and plus it’s also the song with a number which I think denotes her age but yeah I am just guessing that.
      PS this is also not a very depressing song. In fact it’s a pretty optimistic song. It talks about hope and dreams. Hence the transparency.

    A past boyfriend of mine and I were really into Paramore.. we had went to two of their shows together and had some matching shirts. He killed himself 6 years ago and I took a big step away from everything that reminded me of him and that time of my life..... Including this music . The Only Exception was "our song" and I associated so much of her voice with the embodiment of my own inner feelings towards my lover..... Once he was dead I couldn't bear to hear her singing, I thought.
    I feel incredibly guilty now, listening to this. I realize now that while I was taking a step away from Paramore that they were making exactly the kind of music I needed to hear.
    Thank you for being consistently talented and consistently deep and considering in your message. Thank you.

      I have bad news for you. You have shit hearing and you are not a good judge of music quality. Besides her voice cracking all over the place she also sings out of tune in a lot of spots. Gets worse as she goes on - must have warmed up before the show but that only lasts so long. Maybe she will get better with age - not much practice time in her life yet.

    I LOVE that they can tailor a performance for any audience or venue. When they perform, its not just a live rendition of a song on the album. Each performance is so unique and special. it really makes me listen closer because i know it's not going to be the song i already know. They are great at putting some special twists on it. True artists!

    Unreal vocal performance. For a live performance that was incredibly close to studio quality without having the ability to do multiple takes. Bravo

    After Laughter has many catchy & upbeat songs, but lyrically for me this is the most emo album from Paramore. I understand why this is so emotional it's resembling the break up of the band, but hey, now they are back together :)

    This sounds unique and full of little surprises and almost spoken wordish at times, really holds my interest.
