Members Cibyl Posted March 8, 2006 Members Share Posted March 8, 2006 Originally posted by danbronson I'm sure all the Elvis fans said the same thing about Black Sabbath. You make a very good point, and I agree. I'm sure people back then that were into Elvis heard/saw Black Sabbath and had similar reactions. But most of them were probably your everyday "joe-shmoe" music fan,..not musicians or people that play music like most of us here. I like a lot of stuff,....and I LOVE music in general. I'm very open minded and give everything a chance, but I'm really having a hard time finding anything truely musicial about the Norma Jean stuff I've seen/heard so far. It's more like "performance noise-art" or something. So you do you really like these guys or are you just trying to make a point that things change and we have to accept that?

Members Cibyl Posted March 8, 2006 Members Share Posted March 8, 2006 Ok, I just watched that last video that Dan posted,....at least I could detect a slight organization and musical quality to that song. I like it a lot better than the first one,.....but I don't actually like it. HAHAHA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is {censored}ing horrindous. I love how they look like a bunch of mental patients:rolleyes: Don't demean mental patients like that, comparing mental patients to these tards.

Members The*Ataris Posted March 8, 2006 Members Share Posted March 8, 2006 Well, at least it didn't have a cheesy-ass, 80's guitar solos in it. Everyone there seemed to be enjoying it too. What's everyone's problem? I'd go watch if I had some spare time...what the hell, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members danbronson Posted March 8, 2006 Members Share Posted March 8, 2006 Originally posted by Cibyl So you do you really like these guys or are you just trying to make a point that things change and we have to accept that? Both kind of. Music doesn't stay the same, it grows and evolves. In order for it to be "true" rock and roll, it's gotta be rebellious in some way. It's gotta be "wrong" and push the boundries of what you can do musically. In that kind of sense, Norma Jean is at least as much a rock and roll band as there ever was and it's because of responses like the ones in this thread. If you think this is just pure noise, they're rebelling against YOU. congrats, you're now 'the man'.On the other hand, I really do enjoy music like Norma Jean. It's FULL of energy and sounds dangerously chaotic while in actuality, it's thought out very intelligently and methodically. If you really pay attention you'll start to see it (but don't expect to 'get it' when all you've got to go by is youtube.com videos of horrible quality). If you don't agree, then I challenge anyone in a band to cover one of Norma Jean's songs as tightly as they play it, and then tell me it's "just noise".For a good transition into music like this, check out Dillinger Escape Plan's new album, Miss Machine.
