Going to the South with Hayley Williams
When a song is just soooo good you have to LIB OUT!!!!!!! Hayley Williams surprise released a 17-song confection with no official title on her website - it was completely contextless, and we all dove into the tracks not knowing quite what to expect : one of the absolute best ways to engage with new projects. The songs are full of twists and turns, different spheres of influence, multiple complexities, and they contain some of Hayley's best solo work that she's ever done. Out of all the 17 songs, I do have a personal favorite, and it happens to be the one that has the most to say....here's a lyrical analysis of Hayley Williams' TRUE BELIEVER. This is a public episode.
