Paramore: 'We all went to a counsellor'

Paramore have reportedly revealed that the band had group therapy sessions in 2008.

According to Contactmusic, frontwoman Hayley Williams, who is currently suffering from laryngitis, has admitted that she and guitarist Josh Farro had so many arguments on their creative differences that the group had no choice but to undergo counselling to avoid from splitting.

Williams said: "We all went to a counsellor, who happened to be someone we've known since our band started. It wasn't some big dramatic Metallica/Some Kind Of Monster experience, but I don't think we could've done the album without him.

"Josh and I always butt heads the most. We are the closest in age and the primary songwriters of the band. Creatively, we are the most outspoken and with the two of us usually having contrasting ideas, there are more than a few opportunities for disagreements. It works though, in a very quirky sort of way."

The 20-year-old added: "The worst part about ever having any type of bad blood in the band was wondering how much we'd let all these people down. But in reality, we're just humans. That's inspiring in itself."
