Paramore Scores Gold With 'The Final Riot!'

Fueled By Ramen recording group Paramore’s 2008 DVD, "The Final RIOT!," has been certified gold by the RIAA for U.S. sales in excess of 50,000. Filmed and recorded during the band’s blockbuster 2008 summer tour, the CD/DVD set features ebullient live renditions of hits such as "Misery Business" and "That’s What You Get," alongside the exclusive documentary feature, "40 Days Of Riot!"  The live performance was directed by Michael Thelin and mixed by Jeff Juliano while the documentary was directed by Brandon Chesbro.

The news comes just as Paramore has begun sessions for their hugely anticipated follow-up to 2007’s RIAA platinum-certified second album, "Riot!" The Nashville-based band is currently hard at work in a Los Angeles studio with famed producer Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Kid Rock, My Chemical Romance) behind the board. The as-yet-untitled album will be available later this year.

Paramore will road test some of their new material as the main support act on No Doubt’s eagerly awaited reunion tour. The dates kick off with Tiger Jam XII, the annual charity event benefitting the Tiger Woods Foundation as well as other Las Vegas-based charities, set for May 16th at Las Vegas’ Mandalay Bay Events Center. The North American trek will then criss-cross the continent through a three-night tour finale at Irvine, California’s Verizon Wireless Amphitheater on July 31st, August 1st, and August 2nd.

In other news, an acoustic rendition of Paramore’s RIAA gold-certified hit single, "ecode," is among the bonus tracks featured on Chop Shop/Atlantic’s newly released deluxe two-disc version of "Twilight—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack." The special CD/DVD edition of the RIAA platinum certified musical companion to the blockbuster Summit Entertainment film includes an exclusive interview with Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams, as well as the "Decode" companion video and a behind-the-scenes documentary. The deluxe edition of "Twilight—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" is in stores now and can also be ordered physically or downloaded digitally (audio only) through www.twilightthesoundtrack.com.

Even though I agree Paramore isn't the best band on the planet, Metallica is just as horrible in my eyes.

Guilty Pleasure Band....

I wasnt a huge Paramore fan til i seen them live, then i was hooked. Hayley has more charisma onstage than most ppl who have been touring for 20+ years

[spiker69]

yea i agree with CSguitarvocal.. metallica are just awful..their songs r too long and too many solos and when you listen 2 linkin park chester voice and then metallicas singers voice,..well u get the drift.but thats just my opinion. alot of ppl like metallica. paramore rule! decode one of the best songs iv heard

Something tells me you have tiny peen. Why can't people like heavy music and gay music? What's wrong with listening to the Goo Goo Dolls after listening to A7X?

I agree, i listen to A7X and ADTR but I also listen to Paramore and Savage Garden. If anybodys got a problem with it, or a problem with anyone elses music taste, keep it to ya self, why are there so many idiots in the world???

Now that the stupid comments are gone, I can safely say I agree with all of the above.
