Tennessee pop punk young ‘uns Paramore have revealed details about their forthcoming third album Brand New Eyes.

The follow-up to 2007′s Riot!, the success of which saw the group headline a UK tour that New Found Glory (who have been going for over a decade) supported them on, is scheduled for release on 28th September.

According to the press release Brand New Eyes contains lots of “driving, fist-pumping anthems” and is a more aggressive record than the quintet’s, all of whom are under the age of 25, previous efforts. The “rollercoaster ride” Paramore have been on since they clawed their way into mainstream success with Riot! was a big influence on writing this record, but they’re quick to dispel any rumours that they’re complaining about their lives of fame.

Songstress Hayley Williams explains: ““I watch all these bands go from being really hungry on their first album to talking about paparazzi following them around on their next one. I was so afraid of sounding like that.â€�

The group recently penned the title track, ’Decode’, for the 2008 hit vampire teen movie Twilight.
