Biography

Influenced by the sugar-coated emo and mainstream pop-punk of Jimmy Eat World and Avril Lavigne, the (mostly teenage) lineup of the Tennessee-based Paramore found success when their second album Riot! (Number 15, 2007) produced hits in the lurching "Crushcrushcrush" (Number Four Modern Rock; Number 54 Pop, 2007) and nimble "Misery Business" (Number Three Modern Rock; Number 26 Pop, 2007).
