album review

While the music industry continued to struggle throughout 2007 and 2008, Paramore bucked expectations by sending four Top 40 singles to the Hot Modern Rock charts and shipping over one million copies of Riot!. Newcomers like Katy Perry also dominated American radio, but Paramore was one of the only rock bands to emerge from the woodwork, going platinum during a time in which most artists were happy to go gold. The band also toured extensively, and The Final Riot! -- a slick, attractive live album comprising video and audio footage -- captures one of Paramore's final performances in support of that album. Given Hayley Williams' voice and Zac Farro's muscled percussion, Paramore has always been a better live band than the bulk of its competitors, and The Final Riot! is stronger than similar releases by Fall Out Boy (Live in Phoenix) and Taking Back Sunday (Louder Now: Part Two). That's not to say it's a perfect recording; the crowd noise is mixed much too low, which is problematic whenever Williams thrusts the microphone at the audience and invites them to sing along, and her occasional flat notes point to a decided lack of overdubs. That only serves to make The Final Riot! more genuine and Williams more human, however, and the tight set list (featuring the bulk of Paramore's catalog, as well as a snippet of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah") showcases both the band's prowess and the singer's road-seasoned voice. She's fantastic throughout, from her candid comments in the enclosed tour documentary (30 minutes long and well worth the view) to her performance on-stage, where she howls teenage anthems with finesse and pint-sized power. Few vocalists can rival that talent, and watching Williams lay waste to the crowd is one of The Final Riot!'s many highlights. Longtime fans, here's your payoff after years of support. First-time listeners, here's what you've been missing. ~ Andrew Leahey, All Music Guide

      • Final Riot!

      • I love this album, although, it does make it weird to listen to their non-live stuff.  But I think I'd rather listen to the live anyway!

      • The Final Riot!

      • Love the artist, the performance was awesome!!! Their version of "We Are Broken", "My Heart" and the last part of their performance of "Let The Flames Begin" was the highlight of this album (for me, that is). Intro of "Crush 3x" was great...and by the way, I love how she sang "When It Rains" sitting down infront of the Keyboards...

        Although a bit pitchy on some of the songs (Pessimistic, Pressure, Hallelujah, Emergency) the energy was great

        "Everybody sing like its the last song you will ever sing (tell me, tell me do you feel the pressure now) - Born For This
