Norma Jean, The Anti-Mother
Norma Jean is a band I really have to be in the mood to listen to, but when I’m in the mood I love them. Their first two cd’s were very chaotic, and hard to get into. Very rarely did they have a melodic chorus, and it was a lot of odd time signature chaos. Not to say I didn’t love the first two cd’s, it’s just I liked the way they went in Redeemer more. There was more singing, or at least screaming with some sort of a pitch. Not just growling, which I think sounds pretty cool. Norma Jean has two songs up on Myspace, both of which I really like. It seems to me like they are moving to a more controlled sound. It still sounds like Norma Jean, but the songs seem to progress in a more logical way than old Norma Jean. Corey Brandon actually seems to be showing off a decent singing voice a lot in one song, something I hope we get to here more on this cd. The Anti-Mother comes out pretty soon, August 5. I imagine I will like this just as much as I loved Redeemer.
