Paramore's Josh Farro: "We've always been treated as less important than Hayley Williams"

Brothers Josh and Zac Farro, former Paramore band members are now speaking out about their departure to the band and also criticizing the band’s lead singer Hayley Williams.

Josh gave a statement on his blog, saying:
"We've always been treated as less important than Hayley… We toured for two and a half years building our fanbase, pretending to be a band that started naturally.

"In reality, what started as natural somehow morphed into a manufactured product of a major label, riding on the coattails of 'Hayley's dream'."
In their latest record, Josh said:
"We fought her about how her lyrics misrepresented our band and what we stood for, but in the end, she got her way. Instead of fighting her any longer, we decided to just roll over and let it go."

He added: "Hayley claimed that this record reunited us as [a] band and made us grow closer together, when in reality, we were all growing further apart."
Despite initial reports that the blog post was fake, but Josh’s wife has confirmed that the statement was real.
