Untitled

Brand New Eyes (stylized as brand new eyes) is the upcoming third studio album by American rock band Paramore, scheduled for release through Fueled by Ramen on September 29, 2009. The album was produced by Rob Cavallo and recorded in the Hidden Hills of California from January to March, 2009.[6]

Production

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."

Release and promotion

The first single from the album was "Ignorance", which was made available via digital download on July 7, on the same date the album became available for pre-order on Paramore's official website.[7] "Brick by Boring Brick" is expected to be the second single from the album, with "The Only Exception" to follow as the third single.[8]

Two versions of the album will be available; a standard CD edition as well as a deluxe package which has sold out in the United States. The deluxe will 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.[9] The CD will also be one of the first to use iTunes LP. "Brick By Boring Brick" is now up on the band's Myspace.

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.)

The band also announced that they would be doing a European tour starting off in Helsinki, Finland on November 29, 2009, with You Me At Six, Paper Route and Now, Now Every Children supporting all UK tour dates.
