The post Paramore Release Re: This Is Why, Featuring Wet Leg, Julien Baker, Foals & More: Stream appeared first on Consequence.

Paramore have returned with Re: This Is Why, an all-star reimagining of their sixth studio album, This Is Why, by artists like Foals, Julien Baker, Wet Leg, Remi Wolf, and more. Stream the album below.

Paramore first announced Re: This Is Why earlier this week, sharing on Twitter that they’ve “long wanted to recognize the connection we have with some of the artists who’ve influenced us as a band and/or who have cited our band as an influence.” Thus, the new version of the album features an exciting plethora of voices bringing new perspectives to the songs, whether that be through remixing them, or through making new arrangements altogether.

Along with the aforementioned artists, Re: This Is Why also features Panda Bear, Bartees Strange, The Linda Lindas, Zane Lowe, Romy, Claud, and DOMi & JD BECK. Additionally, the album includes a previously-unreleased demo, “Sanity.” Check out the full tracklist and stream the album below.

The original This Is Why debuted this past February, and was marked by themes centering around the passage of time. In her review of the album, Consequence’s Associate Editor Mary Siroky praised the band’s ability to take the rhythms of life in stride. “Time marches on, and we can try to outrun it, or we can walk by its side,” she wrote. “Paramore have taken the latter route, and, somehow, it’s the coolest thing they could have done.”

Meanwhile, Paramore may have had to recently cancel a string of US tour dates, but they’re planning on being back on the road soon. Later this month, they’ll play The New Yorker Festival (grab tickets here), after which they’ll pop down into the Southern Hemisphere for a run of shows in Australia and New Zealand. Next year, the band is set to open for Taylor Swift on a European leg of her historic “Eras Tour.” Grab tickets for the overseas dates here.
