Does the “Black people love Paramore” meme challenge stereotypes or perpetuate them? Yes.
I say all of this to say, it may be no surprise that, while I agree the first half of the album feels like much more of a testament to their post-punk roots as Rachelle was saying, there was no way it could be “a bit too much” so for me. My favorites so far are the closer , the title track, and “Running Out of Time.” Partially because they do what Paramore and Hayley do best: speak to a sort of generational angst in a way that feels obvious but not heavy-handed.
The Black church’s influence on Hayley’s vocals meant that Paramore’s work kind of perfectly slid into the other music I was listening to. It didn’t feel dissonant to switch from “That’s What You Get” and “Here We Go Again” to Luther Vandross.I totally agree with both of you about “Thick Skull”—a great composite of everything that Paramore is trying to do here. It’s introspective, and slower, and yet it builds to something cathartic.
