According to NME, Tennessee based alternative rock band Paramore has been teasing their musical return with the release of a snippet of a new song as well as an enigmatic schedule. Drastic changes to their social media profiles have also left fans wondering what’s to come next.
Members of the band have changed their profile pictures to an updated set of press photos featuring their faces pressed against a window. Their website is also completely blank except for a mysterious schedule that includes various dates in September with cryptic descriptions listed. On the group’s recently made Discord page, they posted a brief excerpt of a song believed to be titled “wr0ng.” Listen to the snippet below.

In August, frontwoman Hayley Williams commented on the band’s next album, including the musical influence behind the record’s sound, naming Bloc Party as their “number one reference.” Paramore recently announced the addition of two new tour dates in Los Angeles including one show set for October 20 at The Wiltern and the other show at The Belasco on October 27.
Their kick off show is scheduled to take place in Bakersfield, California at Mechanics Bank Theater on October 2.
