Paramore Return With Melodramatic 'Monster'
Lindsey Byrnes

Paramore released "Monster," their first new tune since the departure of band members Josh and Zac Faro, on YouTube today. The song, which will appear on the soundtrack of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, has a suitably huge and melodramatic sound, with frontwoman Hayley Williams solemnly singing "I'll stop the whole world from turning into a monster eating us alive!" over loud, ominous guitars. The track will hit digital stores on June 7th and the soundtrack album will be out on June 14th.

“Is It True”

Brenda Lee | 1964

As the British Invasion reached its peak in 1964, Brenda Lee went from Nashville to London to record one of her hardest-rocking hits, her perky vocal backed by a stuttering, squalling guitar. That guitar was played by session musician Jimmy Page, yet to skyrocket to fame with first the Yardbirds and then Led Zeppelin. "She said to me, 'I've come here to make a record with the British sound,'" remembered producer Mickie Most. "She felt she wouldn't get the same sound in Nashville because they're only just catching up on the British beat group sound of about six months ago."
