Following on from Fall Out Boy and Panic! At The Disco, yet a third band from the Fueled By Ramen stalls (the label established by Vinnie Fiorello of Less Than Jake) is working on a dizzying career.
This time its the turn of American pop-punk band PARAMORE. Their greatest influences are emo bands like Jimmy Eat World, Sunny Day Real Estate and Death Cab For Cutie and that can be clearly heard in the songs that are mostly from the hands of songstress Hayley Williams and guitarist Josh Farro. They were already on the bill of tours like Warped and Taste Of Chaos even before their debut 'All We Know Is Falling' (2005) was in the can.
The young band raised eyebrows once again with their second album 'Riot!' (2007), not in the least due to the fantastic singles 'Misery Business' and 'CrushCrushCrush'. Tipped by NME Januari 2007 as one of the top 10 bands 'to keep an eye on' and at the end of that same year by Alternative Press nominated for the Best Band Of 2007. The circle was then complete. Now with a Grammy nomination for 'Best New Artist' they're arriving on Belgian soil to live up to their their live reputation.
