Riff: Paramore – “Future”

Apr 9, 2013

I’m writing the future, I’m writing the future/We don’t talk about the past

from Future lyrics by Paramore

Hayley Williams goes for the Conor Oberst “ramble about the song as an intro” trick here; while it cheesily distracts, the singer-songwriter instrumentation develops into an epic jam of sludgy, post-rock a la Pelican. If this is any indication of Paramore’s “future,” sign me up; [LISTEN].
