Norma Jean

Chaotic, dissonant metalcore that balances mathy precision with raw, southern-sludge grit. Intense, cathartic, and built for high-volume release.

Intro

Formed in 1997 in Douglasville, Georgia, Norma Jean is an American metalcore group originally established as Luti-Kriss. Throughout their career, the band has undergone numerous lineup shifts, including the departure of all founding members. Across nine studio albums, they have garnered critical recognition, including a 2006 Grammy nomination. Their current moniker draws inspiration from the birth name of Marilyn Monroe, reflecting a forced transition similar to the actress's own history.
