Noise Floor

As our Paramore series continues with their massive self-titled album, we dig into the hit songs, the band Live Journal, and why this album didn't land for us in 2013 (but don't worry, we love it now). We also pay tribute to David Lynch with our weekly recommendations.

Paramore had already cemented their legacy in the scene with Riot!, but their third album took them to even greater heights. It's the Brand New Eyes era, and we're talking emo anthems, band turmoil, and Twilight.

Paramore broke big with Riot! Maybe we'll do the same with this episode? Probably not, but it was a lot of fun to rave about how great these songs. Also: lots of talk about The Final Riot (filmed in our native Chicago), Jimmy Eat World, and the remnants of MySpace.

Today we're kicking off our new series on Paramore, starting with All We Know Is Falling. Launched into the heyday of the emo and pop punk revolution, it's a fun, catchy album and an impressive artistic statement for a band so young. We go through the album, a slew of early demos, and end the show with a new segment.

We're a little bit baffled and a little bit intrigued by Under the Blacklight, Rilo Kiley's uneven swan song (for now?). As we finish our series on the band, we get into producer choices, a wealth of B-sides, and finally rank the discography.

Rilo Kiley made the jump to a major label for More Adventurous, but we're still very much an independent podcast. Fortunately, that won't stop us from diving into this masterclass of songwriting and production.

We're back to our Rilo Kiley series with The Execution of All Things, an album of deeply personal self-exploration and spectacular guitar lines.

We're taking a break from our Rilo Kiley series to look back on 2024 and count down our favorite albums of the year.

Our Rilo Kiley series continues with their first proper full-length, Take Offs and Landings. We go deep on the brilliance of "Pictures of Success," get distracted by Explosions In the Sky album artwork, and suggest additions to Matt's emo trumpet playlist. In an unlikely turn of events, Troy even praises a Blake song.

Can we do the Frug? Can we do the Robocop? We certainly can’t do the Smurf. But we can talk about Rilo Kiley’s early years, their self-titled EP (also known as The Initial Friend), and whether Troy is related to Blake Sennett.
