Paramore share new album update: 'We have to go looking for what's next'

Paramore's frontwoman Hayley Williams has shared a new album update with the band's fans

She posted the following message to Instagram last night and explained that now feels like the right time to march confidently into the present moment and trust that the direction they're heading in is the right one:

"About a year ago, we began writing & demoing songs for #5. 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."
