News : Norma Jean Announce Australian Tour

By on December 15, 2014

US based metalcore institution Norma Jean are returning to Australian shores next year in April! Since the bands establishment in 1997, Norma Jean has seen a number of lineup changes, with guitarist Chris Day the only remaining original member. The band received a Grammy Nomination for “Best Recording Package” in 2006 for their sophomore record ‘O’ God, the Aftermath’. To date, they have released six studio albums (their latest being last years ‘Wrongdoers’) one EP. The band’s name derives from the real-life given name of Marilyn Monroe.

Renowned across the globe for their chaotic and pummeling live shows, NORMA JEAN incite rabid fanfare leaving those in attendance in awe and admiration of their performances. NORMA JEAN is the rare band that plays with the intensity of a hungry new act but with the precision and power of a well-toured professional group

Since their last jaunt to Australia, NORMA JEAN released the critically acclaimed album, Wrongdoers. Alternative Press Magazine declared “…since we already referred to NORMA JEAN’S previous album, Meridional, as their ‘first true masterpiece,’ we have to call Wrongdoers their next masterpiece.”. On their last Australian tour, NORMA JEAN debuted several tracks from Wrongdoers but this will be the first time Aussie audiences will hear these songs transformed and mastered after a solid year of global touring!

Don’t miss the crushing brutality that is NORMA JEAN

Presented by Taperjean Touring, Select Touring, and Hysteria Magazine, Norma Jean will hit Australian shores come April 2015. Tickets go on sale tomorrow (December 16) at 9am AEST via the usual outlets. VIP packages are also available.
