Brand New Eyes

Brand New Eyes (styled as brand new eyes) is Paramore's third studio album, that was released on September 29th, 2009.

Background
After non-stop touring for the prior album, Riot!, the band had stated that they were facing "internal issues" in early 2008. While writing new material, lead singer Hayley Williams struggled in believing that the expectations for the new album were goinig to be met as well as being concerned about the lyrics. "I was like, 'This isn't a feel-good song, because I'm writing about something I'm going through right now, and it's still painful,'" she continued. "And I confused that with actually not liking the songs, when actually I was prouder of them than I've ever been before. They're heavier emotions for me... I'm still going through some of this stuff, and these songs are really healing to me." By showing the lyrics she had created, it had helped the band to talk more freely with each other and to resolve the issues they had been struggling with.

The band had intended to record the album in their hometown of Franklin, Tenessee, they ended up recording in Calabasas, California with producer Rob Cavallo; he also produced the song Decode by Paramore for the film Twilight. The name "brand new eyes" was used for the album as it represented the overcoming of their issues and how they saw each of the other band members.
