Upon its release, Paramore was acclaimed by music critics. Having recruited a new guitarist, Taylor York, the rockers embarked on a long concert voyage during which they used the intermissions to record two songs as soundtrack for Twilight. This record featured Paramore’s first massive hits including Misery Business, Сrushcrushcrush, and That's What You Get. Besides, Riot! Earned the band a Grammy nomination. It took the release a bit more than one year to turn platinum. Paramore could hardly have expected more than this album turned out to be. In the summer of 2007, the American ensemble delivered the second album called Riot!. The rest of the musicians came to a conclusion that they did not need to look for a new substitution and carried on as a quartet. This musician played in good faith helping the band during all the concerts due that year, but early in 2007 he departed too. First, they lost Bynum who decided to go shortly before the start of 2006. It is essential to mention that they began working on the sophomore album in a reduced lineup. As a result, Paramore moved under the aegis of Atlantic Records. Performances at popular festivals together with tours alongside more famous and experienced musicians came in handy and soon turned the young band into an attractive partner for labels of a bigger size than the one they were with. The release of the first studio effort gave Paramore a sign to start a campaign on extending their fan base.
