Paramore have revealed that they have returned to studio and have started working on their sixth full-length album. The album, a follow-up to 2017’s After Laughter, will be the band’s first new record in five years.

“We wrote and tracked something we loved and it actually surprised us,” frontwoman Hayley Williams told Rolling Stone about the first day back together with her band mates Taylor York, and Zac Farro.

“We kept joking it was all downhill from that point, but thank God we’ve been surprised a lot throughout this whole thing. I’m always waiting for the moment for us to know we’re onto something new and we’re not just rehashing the same shit,” she added.

Williams continued, “It was ‘Ain’t It Fun’ for our self-titled record, and ‘Hard Times’ or ‘Told You So’ for After Laughter. It’s not about it feeling like a hit so much as it’s a scary, exciting feeling that you’re treading uncharted waters. It keeps you curious. We got to feel that feeling early on this time.”

The band also revealed that they completed the album’s earliest songwriting sessions in Nashville but then relocated to a studio in California for recording.
