    I think it's a bit late for Aprils fools jokes. If you are in fact serious then I recommend seeking help for your obvious mental illness.

    I would have to agree that Paramore are one of the best live preformers i have seen in a long time and their album RiOT has been the olny recent album that i can listen to through and through for ever and still not get bored of it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,065 ✭✭✭✭Malice


    Their lead singer is quite attractive but their music is terrible. There's your discussion :).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,584 ✭✭✭c - 13


    Lead singer is hot. Band is not. :pac:

    Also funny story - At one of their recent gigs the lead singer did a stage dive and accidentally booted my brothers then girlfriend in the face with both feet. Black eye and thought her nose was broken. I laughed.

    Troll & and a Half here!

    But may aswell add my opinion...that relatively ugly ginger(I've nothing against gingers honestly) cannot sing, the songs suck, the quicker the 14 year olds become 15 the better. I wouldnt even put my favourite band up near as good as the likes of Queen etc.

    But anway OP, thanks for a laugh today!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭MikeHoncho


    Not even the best band with a ginger female lead singer mate sorry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Killaqueen!!!


    For shame...:eek: Comparing Paramore to Queen.

    No respect...


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 15,577 Mod ✭✭✭✭Furious-Red


    I maybe shot for this but i actually went to the Paramore concert and it was quite good but would not say they are the best band though. Oh and she is HOT!!!

    *shhots*

    Yeah, I've yet to see a hot picture of her, possibly on the grounds they may not exist! Put it tis way, I thought Alanis Morisette was supposed to b hot, imagine my disappointment when I saw her on Sunday to be, well, not even remotely hot! It'd be a nice surprise for it to happen the other way, but nah, just cant see it happening with her.

    I'd lob me knob in her.


    That's about it though.

    All I can say is...


    LAWLZ!!

    This just has to be a joke. I mean, I've nothing against paramore(except maybe the ginge hair), but, honestly...one of the best rock bands?? Could'nt you at least have said pop-rock?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭blindpilot


    Paramore are possibly the worst band to ever be heard. They're right up there with My Chemical Romance and Fallout Boy. Drivel.

    I wouldn't insult Shirley Manson by calling her ginger. She's a redhead all the way :).

    Wouldn't really call the singer of Paramore ginger either, but people seem to be doing it anyway...

    Awesome--large-msg-118490924996.jpg

    I would agree that there's a big difference between ginger and redhead.

    Fair point, now for the obligatory South Park reference that I'm surprised no one has posted yet!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,969 ✭✭✭christophicus


    Wow just shows you how out of tune I am with "the Kids". I only heard about Paramore 2 weeks ago when I was visiting my cousins and she mentioned she was going to their gig.

    I only saw/heard the band today after checking them out on youtube because of this thread. They seem like a less extreame version of Flyleaf ( can't beleive I just used the words "flyleaf" and "extreame" in the same sentence :p.)

    After hearing them all I can say is "the kids" can keep their music, I am not one bit sorry that I am not in tune with their ways ( man I feel sooooooo old now ) .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭MikeHoncho


    Yeah I was talking bout Garbage and I suppose Ginger is a bit strong. They are daywalkers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Tbh though, the singer from Paramore is hot. I'd suck her cock. ;)

    Bands with poppy elements tend to get pretty bad responses around here.

    URRRGGGHHH. METAAAAAL. URRRRGGGGHHHH.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,706 ✭✭✭120_Minutes


    if the op is older than 12, they are a troll, only children take paramore seriously.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 348 ✭✭KatiexKOUTURE--


    I love paramore and they're probly one of my favourite bands and AMAZING live but I wouldnt just put them up as one of the greatest bands..

    That's exactly what you said. :confused:

    Pfft, come on TelePaul, just because they're the Greatest Rock band ever doesn't mean they're the best band in the world.

    Wow.. If you think Paramore are the "Greatest rock band ever" I can't wait to see your reaction when you listen to U2, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Zeppelin, Sonic Youth, Guns n' Roses, etc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 417 ✭✭ZakAttak


    Maybe the person who started the thread was taking the p1ss- but lets make one thing clear here: They have only released one album and they're all quite young, so who knows? Maybe in the future they will be a great band.

    I'd say it's a safe bet that if you resurrect this discussion thread in 5 years time Paramore won't be thought of as a great band :).

    ==>Maybe that will happen, but you can't be certain about it.

    Look at Def Leppard, they've released tonnes of albums and they're all sh1te- in terms of crimes against music Paramore are just petty criminals compared to the likes of Def Leppard and Bon Jovi-who should be dragged out and shot.

    Two albums, One EP duder, but your point is still very valid.

    Lots of people over the age of 12 like Paramore, you silly billy.

    ==>Yeah, fair enough- I admit my paramore knowledge isn't quite up to scratch, still though, I think people are being a bit harsh on them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 207 ✭✭Jack Vegas


    I have no problem with someone expressing their opinion on a band, but implying that people that like that band have an immature music taste is elitist nonsense.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22 somewhatxdazed


    I like paramore and all, but they are no where NEAR my favourites, let alone being "the greatest rock band ever".

    lyrics are kinda silly and too far on the pop-y side to be considered among the best rock bands.

    that said, they are still pretty good. fun to dance too and the likes. i just hope this thread is a piss-take.

    Considering the OP's other posts I think we can be pretty confident that it was a piss-take.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 173 ✭✭smurfy89


    I like Paramore .. but i wouldnt exactly classify them as rock! They should definitely be in the pop category .. they get played on Mid West radio ffs!!
