Norma Jean

American metalcore band originally known as Luti-Kriss, noted for the influential 2002 debut Bless The Martyr And Kiss The Child.

Redeemer (2006) was produced by Ross Robinson. Cory Brandan is credited as a vocalist on later releases; the band changed name from Luti-Kriss to Norma Jean before the 2002 debut.

DeBaser reviews praise Norma Jean's 2002 debut Bless The Martyr And Kiss The Child as a landmark record blending post-hardcore and metalcore. Redeemer (2006) divided critics: some applauded its moments and production, others found it more linear and less inventive. Common highlights are complex rhythms, heavy guitars, and intense vocal delivery.

For:Fans of heavy, experimental metal; listeners of metalcore and post-hardcore.
