Norma Jean

Norma Jean is a metalcore band from Atlanta, Georgia, that blends themes of religious imagery into its otherwise hard-lined metal sound. After being founded in 1997, the group toured around the US for several years, where it was able to properly mold its characteristic sound, before entering the studio to record its 2002 debut LP, Bless the Mayter and Kiss the Child. Though the band has fought off naysayers who criticize Norma Jean's Christian metal style, it has nevertheless soldiered on—continuing to maintain a busy recording and touring schedule.
