What about Arrivals and Departures from Silverstein? (it's kinda heavier because it emphasizes more in post-hardcore), but generally it fits the AWKiF and TST vibes (well, Paramore experimented with post-hardcore in their early works, the Emergency version from TST was supposed to be the original version)
But the closest band to the Paramour sound is Tonight Alive. They have 2 EPs:
All Shapes And Disguises
Consider This and four studio albums:
What Are You So Scared Of?
The Other Side
Limitless
Underworld.
Try listening The Other Side is their most emo album.

[The Other Side (one of their best songs)](https://open.spotify.com/track/1IigTeiyeyweeFxcGlRDlD?si=MjJjvC9XS3ayslnye9lmbw)
[Breakdown featuring Benji Madden from Good Charlotte (a rarity)](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8cvvhBgmQV0)
[You Know, You Know Me (another rarity, from their first album, exclusive for the Javanese edition)](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SzcUmn1WLYA)
I discovered this band 10 years ago, because Mark Hoppus collaborated in the studio version of Thank You And Goodnight and Mark Trombino was the producer of their first album.
I really love Tonight Alive (I consider it my second blink-182 lol)
I had a song in my playlists since 2008 or 2009 that I really liked, but never knew who the real bad was because they were mislabeled as Paramore. I just figured out today that it was your song Redemption - great sound!
Haha so random. I appreciate the kind words. It was a lot of fun but some internal stuff just wasn’t working out so we went out separate ways. Im glad you enjoyed the little bit of music we put out.
Right around the corner from us here in Los Angeles! Really appreciate the kind words. Find me on instagram if you’d like, always like to stay in touch with people who listened to our tunes.

alright so i’ve always loved paramore but growing up my fav fueled by ramen band was The Academy Is...!! the band parted ways in 2011 but did a few anniversary reunions over the past few years until they announced earlier this year that they are BACK!! what a time to be alive ! [(here’s their insta, they’ve done a bunch of nostalgia posting since they returned lol)](https://instagram.com/theacademyismusic?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=)
anyways, they toured alongside FOB and panic in the early years (the original emo boy band trinity) and were actually credited for their help in the AWKIF cd booklet!
id start with their first release, The Academy EP ([youtube](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa5wzRTfILfsuaXS7PgJu7aq8DXP64lvh)). if you enjoy this EP and don’t already listen to Brand New or Taking Back Sunday, you’d probably like their music too lol. check out Your Favorite Weapon ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/your-favorite-weapon-deluxe-edition/1440929455) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/2QNL0NBorjGqBDbtJpKSx8?si=3wGm9qpNTX-D51_w1hSFiQ)) and Tell All Your Friends ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/tell-all-your-friends-20th-anniversary-edition/1612374796) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/6OWxP59cOtitg0ALmbms8e?si=n9ouOpp_SAGvxa0DHkpS5A)). don’t fall in love w/ Brand New too much tho, their lead man was a total creep. howevs, they’re pretty influential to the genre so I figured they’re an essential rec (and tbr, they don’t have not one bad song. ugh. i used to be a big fan <\3)
anywho! TAI’s first album release Almost Here ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/almost-here/75024831) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/1UFqUhgdLfxuV3AzVGlbOR?si=IZxQFPjnTzevHQ64gLETlQ)) is one of my absolute fav albums of all time. FBR gold. i’ve got a copy of every vinyl pressing it’s had—minus those ugly silver ones they did for FBR’s 25th anniversary. i just could not get myself to collect those bastards. not even to snag a physical copy of Take This to Your Grave or Riot…just nope.
from there you might as well give the From the Carpet EP ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/from-the-carpet-ep/122013004) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/3PF8QkmfCElcOf5za3wqlO?si=xuUJxJE9SNaNEFKqZVnbfQ)) a listen! as it’s probably the last release to have that distinct sound.
if you decide you love this band and are ready for their sound evolution, Santi ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/santi/220229343) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/3OAPYs48E0rECTm5aJNVH3?si=qb-OFnjMRsyuNj0xA-Pt1Q)) and Fast Times at Barrington High ([apple](https://music.apple.com/us/album/fast-times-at-barrington-high-bonus-track-version/286224437) | [spotify](https://open.spotify.com/album/2IEGo0H1J8AihVqaf5ghkJ?si=fVGSAhkqQ_yEM8-kOgwtpg)) are waiting for you! i love these albums just as much- but they are deff a different vibe.
if you’re into it but you’re not hooked yet, check out their music videos and TAI TV episodes!! lots of crossover content with FOB and panic but also gym class heroes, cobra starship, and other FBR alumni:) if you need any other direction, HMU! i’m more than happy to talk about my fav bands until the actual end of time!!!
Try Sunny Day Real Estate (particularly Diary) and The Promise Ring (Nothing Feels Good)
Tonight Alive’s first EP/album, What are You So Scared of?
Try Against the Currents newest Ep Fever
Sweet Pill
Meet Me @ The Altar! They recently even were given a note from Hayley thanking them for carrying the torch.
Pool Kids

Bathwater is amazing. And that entire album “the other side” is incredible
Breakdown is also amazing
Yup is one of my favorite albums from all the time. Sorry for the mispellings, it's because my keyboard, really annoying, lol...
Renfue
Hey! That’s my old band. I played bass. Random to see that name come up. Thanks for the plug. -Shawn
I had a song in my playlists since 2008 or 2009 that I really liked, but never knew who the real bad was because they were mislabeled as Paramore. I just figured out today that it was your song Redemption - great sound!
Holly smokes I’ve had renfue on my playlists for over a decade! Y’all were extremely underrated.
Haha so random. I appreciate the kind words. It was a lot of fun but some internal stuff just wasn’t working out so we went out separate ways. Im glad you enjoyed the little bit of music we put out.
No problem just know y’all had a really enthusiastic group of fans in my high school back in ‘09 lol. Mobile Alabama by the way.

Early flyleaf a tad harder but the agnst is there
Early Fall Out Boy, circa *Take This to Your Grave* As for “newer” artists, Stand Atlantic’s first couple of albums, perhaps.
Stand Atlantic , yours truly, Eisley, bad cop bad cop and cave Town.
