This Is Why

This Is Why is the sixth studio album by the American rock band Paramore, released on February 10, 2023, through Atlantic Records, their final studio album for the label. It is their first album since 2017, following After Laughter, and the second recorded by the lineup of Hayley Williams, Taylor York, and Zac Farro, marking the first time the band's lineup has been consistent between two albums. The album was supported by four singles: "This Is Why", "The News", "C'est Comme Ça", and "Running Out of Time".

A remix album, Re: This Is Why, was released October 6, 2023, featuring remixed, reworked, and rewritten versions of songs from This Is Why by different artists. The album won Best Rock Album and the album's title track won Best Alternative Music Performance at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards; Paramore was the first female-fronted rock band to win the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.
