Paramore Announce Last Tour of 2008

Paramore has revealed the details behind "The Final Riot!" Their last tour of 2008 will run from July 28 in Reno, NV, through August 30 in Wallingford, CT. Jack's Mannequin, Phantom Planet and Paper Route have all been tapped to open.

As for when we can expect new music from the band, there's an album on the way sometime in 2009. According to an MTV.com interview with singer Hayley Williams, "[Guitarist] Josh [Farro] writes most of the music, so he has got tons of ideas coming on like crazy right now, and it's really inspiring and motivating me. So, I started writing to some of the ideas while we were on tour, and hopefully with some time off, I'll be able to focus and spend a lot of time on that. We're hoping to have a good 20 songs done by the time we get off the road, and we'll see where we go from there by the end of the year."
