I've become addicted to Paramore, and I want to know if there are any good bands with a similar sound. I particularly like misery business. Any suggestions?

I suggest Anberlin. Even though the lead singer is male, the music is of the same general genre (though not really the same), and the music is excellent. Also, if you haven't already, be sure to check out their first album, "All We Know is Falling."

I like Anberlin, thanks for the suggestion! I'd also like something a bit more upbeat.

In my opinion Anberlin doesn't really sound that much like Paramore, they only thing they have in common is genre. ^__^ I'd say they sound more like 30 Seconds To Mars.

A Kiss Could Be Deadly is basically an exact duplicate of the band Paramore but their songs are really catchy and still just as rocky.

I'd suggest the following...

Shine Bright Baby(the vocals sound a bit like Haley, though the music style is a bit different.)

Flee The Seen(Kim screams in some songs, but they have a fairly similar style)

Go with Fireflight most definitely. Flyleaf and Addison Road are pretty close as well.

Xandria. The lead singer just left though :( They're currently looking for a replacement. Just got Now and Forever: The Best of Xandria the other week and I really enjoy it.

I highly suggest a local band of the Phillipines called Effinboiche. they have a female lead and i found them because they did a paramore cover. which was very good, by the way. or checking out all the bands at TVU Live. they are all as good as paramore and as hardcore!

pm me if you want their (Effinboiche) URL.

ps. I love paramore. all the suggestions are really good.
