Douglasville, Georgia (2001 – present)

Norma Jean is a metalcore/ mathcore band from Douglasville, Georgia, USA- a suburb of Atlanta. They were originally known as Luti-Kriss. They released two albums: an EP (titled 5ep) in 2000, and a full-length release, Throwing Myself on March 13, 2001. After the release of Throwing Myself, the band changed their name to Norma Jean to avoid confusion with rapper Ludacris.

Their original vocalist, Josh Scogin, left the band right after the release of Bless the Martyr and Kiss the Child and went on to start The Chariot. He was temporarily replaced by Brad Norris, who was then replaced by Cory Brandan, formerly of Eso-Charis, Living Sacrifice, Uses Fire, and The Handshake Murders.

On August 13, 2002, the band released Bless the Martyr and Kiss the Child on Solid State Records which inculded released single ‘Face:Face’ with the video directed by Darren Doane. They released their second album in March of 2005, titled O God, the Aftermath. almost exactly a year later, they re-released O’God as a Deluxe edition CD\DVD combo with a few hours of recording and tour footage as well as three music videos for Bayonetwork, Liarsenic, and Absentimental.

Norma Jean’s third studio album, Redeemer, was released on September 12, 2006, under Solid State records. This was the third studio album since changing their name. shortly after, they released a music video for the song “Blueprints for Future Homes” which was directed by the same Swedish twins that directed “Liarsenic”

    "considering this comes from a band that scored Billboards 200 (highest selling albums in the US) every time since 'O God, the Aftermath'" You realize that even if you are scoring like 30th on the billboard 200 you are making jack shit for money off royalties right?

    come on, spare me you're hypocritical bullshit. no band, that became big enough to tour around the world in order to make a living, deserves any pity at all. personally, i love norma jean. but i would've never discovered them, if there wasn't the possibilities we have today. why should everybody, who gets access to their music have to pay for it? and if i buy an album and give it to someone else, is he a pirate already?? same thing with youtube: basically, it can be used for piracy very easily, still it's one of the best ways for bands to get known in the first place and they'll get my money anyway if i decide it's worth it seeing them live, which is definitely going to happen (stoked)! for me, corey's reputation just went down slight a bit once again (the first time was for being christian ;)

    V He might of been. the post isn't the most elegantly written thing ever. Anyhow, It's a tough economy, for everyone. I'm pretty sure bands don't make all that much from a sale of an album (aside from sales at a show where they get a larger percentage of that sale.)

    Downloading music is stealing no matter what, even tho it's intellectual property and they deserve more then the fans downloading their stuff. It won't ever stop. Long as we keep fighting for money & power things won't ever improve. They can stop downloading but they're not going to see a sharp increase of sales either, they'll see a change but it's not going to be as much as they would like it to be. In order to see an increase of sales, you have to put the money back into consumers pockets.

    I'd be more interested in how long they lasted on the billboard. A lot of bands would love to push 10,000 albums in week one for sure, but I imagine sales fell sharply week after week.

    considering this comes from a band that scored Billboards 200 (highest selling albums in the US) every time since 'O God, the Aftermath' (although Meridional did not score aswell; but still ratings in the top 50) you can argue that most bands would love to have such high sale rankings. this puts them somehow in the same spot like some beloved pop artists who rant about the same matter but still having big time sales. they are doing better than most of the other bands around in the genre (and beyond).
