Yesterday (26 September), Paramore caught the attention of fans by posting a cryptic video which suggested that they were gearing up for another release.

They took to their socials to share a video on an iPhone note with the title: "Re: This Is Why". Following this, the note revealed three dates, each with an almost-anagram version of the title which references the band's sixth studio album, This Is Why.

If taken literally, the note alludes to something else called "This Is Why" being released on Thursday (28 September), which is the one year anniversary of the album's announcement, with "Why Is This?" following on 2 October, and "Is This Why?" finally being shared on 6 October.

Adding more fuel to the fire, they posted two audio clips to their Discord server which appears to be a remix of the tracks "Liar" and "You First". More surprisingly, the snippets don't feature the vocals of Hayley Williams. In fact, the snippet of "Liar" seems to feature the distinct vocals of The XX's Romy.

Fans are still speculating on whose vocals appear on the apparent remix of "You First", with most agreeing that it could be American singer/songwriter Remi Wolf who appeared as a contestant on American Idol in 2014.

Given the dates shared by Paramore, more will be revealed tomorrow (28 September) on the one year anniversary of them announcing This Is Why.
