Strings Attached

For SPIN’s July issue cover shoot with Paramore at New Jersey's Bamboozle, photo director Michelle Egiziano wanted to show the band’s playfulness and their close relationship with their fans. Solution: Have them fire off silly string while shrieking festivalgoers sprayed water bottles.

But don't get the wrong idea -- the Tennessee quintet isn't only about having fun: "They may be young, but they’re very serious about what they do," says Egiziano.
