It was a good bit: About a month ago, Hayley Williams debuted a new song on Nashville public radio, sparking speculation about a new solo album from the Paramore leader. Instead of releasing an album, Williams uploaded 17 new songs to a pass-protected website, not arranging them into a particular sequence but instead making people click around at their leisure. Then, when the songs officially came out a few days later, Williams released them as 17 separate singles, again forcing listeners to engage with each individual song rather than letting them passively blur together. People had to work to really dig in, but those who did were the real fans, the ones trading their own carefully assembled playlists of the new material and obsessively breaking down each track on the Paramore subreddit.
