Hayley Williams confirmed that Paramore is on a break, but that the band is not broken up. The singer recently talked about the current status of the band and its future in an interview with The Face, published on Thursday, September 4, 2025. For those wondering if Paramore has broken up after Williams released her latest solo album, Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party, she said:"We always take huge breaks. In order for us to metabolize sh*t that we go through as people, it takes that amount of time between albums."Earlier in their career, the pop-punk band usually released albums two years apart. However, since 2009, at least four years have passed between their albums, with the longest gap being around six years, between After Laughter (2017) and This Is Why (2023).If the same trajectory continues, Paramore is still halfway through their usual gap year between albums and will not likely release a new album until two years later. That said, as Hayley Williams confirmed in The Face, the band hasn't broken up, and they are expected to return with new music sometime in the future.Hayley Williams recently released her solo album View this post on Instagram Instagram PostOn the first day of August, Hayley Williams made headlines after she made a surprise drop of a collection of 17 tracks that she previously shared on her website but deleted soon after.
