Where this album fits

Career context
Released on September 25, 2009, 'Brand New Eyes' marked Paramore's third studio album and followed their commercial breakthrough with 'Riot!' in 2007. At this point, the band was solidifying their presence in the pop-rock landscape while grappling with internal tensions and lineup changes, particularly around the departure of bassist Jeremy Davis shortly before recording began.
