Paramore - Brand New Eyes

Brand New Eyes (Typeset as brand new eyes) is the third studio album from alternative rock band Paramore. It was recorded in the Hidden Hills of California from January to March and was produced by Rob Cavallo The title "Brand New Eyes" was based on a track that was later cut from the album and means "seeing everything in a whole new perspective". The first single from the album was "Ignorance" which became available via digital download on July 7, on the same date the album became available for preorder on paramore.net. 'Brick by Boring Brick' will be the expected second single from the album. Officially, the album name is "brand new eyes," with no capitalisation. Lead singer Heyley Williams has stated that this is because of her failure to ever use capitalisation when typing on the computer. Two versions of the album will be available; a standard CD edition as well as a limited edition deluxe package which will have a limited release of 15,000 copies and include the album on CD, a 40-page hardcover journal, Hayley Williams’ handwritten lyrics and notes on the album, a colour vinyl 7” single with two acoustic songs and a DVD featuring an exclusive 'making-of' documentary.

Recording.

The band had hoped to be able to record the album in their home of Nashville, Tennessee, but this became impossible. This initially was upsetting, but the band have since admitted that it was for the best. Producer Rob Cavallo's house and the surrounding area were used to create various webisodes the band posted on their website.

Paramore faced time pressure recording Brand New Eyes, unlike its predecessor Riot!. This was because the band was signed on to open for rock/ska band, No Doubt's summer reunion tour.

Paramore have announced that they are going on tour on their official site, with The Swellers and Paper Route joining them as opening acts. The tour will begin in Pomona, California on September 29, 2009 (the day of the album's release.)
