Paramore's Hayley Williams Gives Fifth Album Update On Instagram
Kind of...
Over the weekend, Paramore's Hayley Williams gave fans an update on their forthcoming fifth album, the long awaited follow-up to 2013's Paramore.
Just over a year ago, founding bassist Jeremy Davis shocked the fandom by quitting the band, with the remaining members describing his departure as "really painful" in a joint statement.
Since then, there's speculation that ex-Paramore drummer Zac Farro has returned the band following various social media teases but while we're yet to get official word on that, Williams posted an update of sorts on Instagram on Saturday (7th January):
"about a year ago, we began writing & demoing songs for #5", the post began.
"following up our self-titled album didn't seem like it was going to be an easy task and, unsurprisingly, it was not. the problem about comparing yourself to... yourself... is that even though it's better than looking elsewhere, you're still looking in the wrong direction. for me, it wasn't until i trusted that the past is finished with me that i could go looking for what's next. our pasts can be a great comforter, or a horror movie; a noose, or a shield... but it is "past" for a reason. after a rest, we have to go looking for what's supposed to come after that. - h (sic)"

Hayley hasn't been off the grid completely since their last project. In 2015 she featured on New Found Glory's 'Vicious Love' as well as on CHVRCHES' 'Bury It' last year.
Needless to say we can't wait to hear more Paramore music, whoever may be a part of the band!
WATCH PARAMORE'S 'STILL INTO YOU' BELOW:
That we've been together
I need the other one to hold you
Make you feel, make you feel better
It's not a walk in the park to love each other
But when our fingers interlock
Can't deny, can't deny you're worth it
'Cause after all this time
I'm still into you
I should be over all the butterflies
But I'm into you (I'm into you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let 'em wonder how we got this far
'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah, after all this time
I'm still into you
Recount the night
That I first met your mother
And on the drive back to my house
I told you that, I told you that I loved ya
You felt the weight of the world
Fall off your shoulder
And to your favorite song
We sang along to the start of forever
And after all this time
I'm still into you
I should be over all the butterflies
But I'm into you (I'm into you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let 'em wonder how we got this far
'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah, after all this time
I'm still into you
Some things just, some things just make sense
And one of those is you and I
Some things just, some things just make sense
And even after all this time
I'm into you
Baby, not a day goes by that I'm not into you
I should be over all the butterflies
But I'm into you (I'm into you)
And baby even on our worst nights
I'm into you (I'm into you)
Let 'em wonder how we got this far
'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all
Yeah, after all this time
I'm still into you
I'm still into you
I'm still into you
