Norma Jean's energetic, but they suck live.

norma jean sucks period

Yeah, Norma Jean sucks balls.

I have an appreciation for them. I think their music kinda has to be simple so that they can go nuts live.

I enjoy their music for no apparent reason, but I honestly think they put on a horrible live show. Probably the vocals blowing out all the time.

I've said it before, but half of Norma Jean's songs are really good and the other half completely blow.

I would say that is an accurate assessment.

Yes. This is very true.

And Luti-Kriss was a fu[size=2]cking[/size] joke of a band... except that one song, [I]Black Smith[/I].

[QUOTE=Dimmu Burger;14976220]Their song on Guitar Hero II is nuts though![/QUOTE]

Yeah that song is called Six. It's pretty ****ing amazing.


And Norma Jean are horrible live and meh on Cd.

:lol:

Josh can't even get his own lyrics right, and he's the best vocalist they've had... pretty sad.

ATR f[size=2]u[/size]cking rules.

The latest ATR album is solid yeah. I'd say the melodeath influence is stronger than the hardcore though, and his vocals improving did a lot to make it better.

No, they definitely don't.

EDIT: to BRA

I thought his vocals were great beforehand, but Melissa really brought him to a whole new level.

Eh, the only improvement he made was that he showed more variation... his mids on This Darkened Heart are a lot better, but the variation he added, once more, makes it a lot cooler, even if his lows are sort of pathetic.

He sounds like he's brushing his teeth with those lows.

He sounds like he's got tone and placement down, but he just isn't pushing enough for the rasp, if they threw a little tiny bit of distortion or if he pushed a little harder, those would be AMAZING lows.

They're pretty low in the mix anyways. I know a dude working with Melissa Cross.

Apparently she's batshit insane.

I can imagine from how many times I've watched the Zen Of Screaming DVDs... she just seems waaaaaaay too, "spirited."
