Mediocre songwriting, what are you high? Every song on Riot could be a single. The catchiness factor is undeniably high.

Pretty much, a couple of the slow songs aren't so hot but yeah, on average they're all pretty good pop songs.

To some extent, the monetary profits should cover the bills from their hairstylists.

Actually, with all the downloading of music these days...I'd say it's a pretty big deal to go platinum.

I like her vocals, but other than that the band is generic and bland. Oh well...

"Gawd i hate this band"

Shut up, your god damn user name is Megadeth, you don't get to share opinions when they're that close minded!

still, band isn't very innovative, and they're the type of band that the sputnik community likes just to prove their diversity. The vocals are alright, songwriting and instruments are mediocre, AT BEST

It always makes me chuckle when people say "Oh they don't deserve to sell this many records!!!"

Seriously, who cares, get the fuck over it.

I agree with cush... It's a big deal to sell that many CDs when a lot of people are downloading free MP3s off the net..

And I like Paramore. Not, like, a favourite band or anything, but I think they are quite good. I've heard worser music out there.

123. In this day and age I could care less who goes platinum I will respect that status. Maybe not the music but the status. If you are ignorant and are clueless why I will let you know. Go to your favorite torrent site, type in Paramore - Riot! and see how many seeders and leeches there are. Then keep in mind not everyone who downloads it will do this. Should I say more? Once more I'm not judging the quality of music in based off of record sales. I am saying that saying it is not a big deal to go platinum in this day and age bends the line between ignorance and retardation. Congrats to these guys and lovely young lady!

For shame, now Paramore will think their music is actually above average.

I personally buy a lot more music since downloading became popular. Who wants to go out and buy a CD then discover it is shit? I only own the CDs of albums that I personally think are excellent. Come to think of it, I hadn't even bought any CDs nor had the intention of buying any before I started downloading :/
