NORMA JEAN - Recording All Hail with Will Putney 

All hail the almighty Norma Jean.

One of the VERY RARE vocalists who can jam the songs on an instrument/can write with the band. Props

Been a fan since Bless the Martyr, seen them a few times, and got to pre-game at a bar with Cory, then stand and jump around with them at a small show, helped them load their stuff in their van, after partied at my local pub, then after-after partied with them at the house they were crashing at and it was the best night of my life even 10 years later. The line up has changed since but Cory and the guys are just the chillest, most humble, appreciative and sincere guys. I got a tattoo of their unofficial symbol from O God the Aftermath and we all compared our same tats and they were so stoked and listened to me tell them how much their music has touched my life and MY GOD i love these guys. Past and present. Long live the Almighty Norma Jean.

I've listened to Anna about 9,000 times and it still gives me chills. All Hail

Bring a friend with you when you buy this to help you carry it. Gonna be real heavy.

"bringing a knife to a gun fight"

Norma Jean & Thrice = Greatness

norma jean has grown into me the latest years. Please stay strong during this hard times. We need more of your music.

Track is "Safety Last" btw. So good. Can't wait for this album...

Best Norma Jean album to date. All hail is absolute perfection

The breakdown at the end of Ahna is the greatest piece of music ever recorded. It feels like going down a 300-foot drop on a roller coaster listening to it.

So that's what made that slide so great at end of landslide defeater. I smiled so big when i heard that

Even instrumentally the track carries such emotion. Stoked for the new record!

Redeemer is my favorite record by NJ and my third favorite record in my life. Polar Similar is nearly behind. After that, Meridional, Wrongdoers and Anti-Mother. Cory Brandan, favorite vocalist in genre. I wanna say, how much i love Norma Jean spirit sound. I saw one comment on metalsucks page, who wrote something like...NJ without Joshua doesnt have any heart. Did people know, that Goose recorded every cymbal from his drum kit separately for Wrongdoers? And that every album is recorded live? There is no vocalist, beside Cory and Keith Buckley, where i can hear so many emotions in their broken voices. All Hail is one of the reasons, why i am glad, to be alive. I cant express by words, how much i love this kind of music.

This album was perfection

This band will forever own whatever is popular out there right now. The thought, the feeling and over all sound that differs from every record. Cant be campared. The album title says it all.

This recordis the most gorgeous thing i have heard in years..the vocals the guitars the production..heck even the drums..just a class act all around

Loved Norma Jean since I was a freshman in high school. I’m almost 30 now and they’re one of the very few bands from that time that I still love and listen to all of the time.

Putney the snare tone g0d

I love hearing the instrumental for Safety Last. It makes me appreciate the band's musicianship this far into their career.

All hail. I just heard this and my God. It’s so good. Masterpiece.

I’ll be in the pit with my walker if you guys keep making tunes like this. Thanks for the great years!!

God that drum mix sounds so good at the end

The instrumental playthrough of "Safety Last" gave me a new appreciation for the song.

I cannot wait for this whole album to drop. This is some of the best stuff you guys have ever put out

saw them live earlier this month for the first time. been a fan for nearly 20 years. absolute most nostalgic and crazy live show i've ever been to

That was cool to see. They sound so good.

man O God the Aftermath for me is one of the heaviest and most chaotic sounding albums ive heard. I listen to Converge and Dillinger as well, but something about "O God..." always does it for me

Favorite band, favorite producer! Hell yeah!!

Amazing Instrumental!!! Great perspective of the song! Some more would be awesome!

Yessss! So stoked!

One of the most underrated bands in metal

I love this band so much 😘

How can you not love these dudes, just grinding and making awesome music. Long live Norma Jean!

Love the guitar tone

Lovin these studio videos KERRANG!

Stoked for new NJ

Can not wait for this record.

Wow. You guys have come so far on this ride. This is going to be an amazing album, it sounds so full and atmospheric. Like your new guitarist said, some heavy riffs. I'm super excited to own another Norma Jean album to my collection. Even found a luti-kriss album at my local record store when I was 17 😉

This band continue to push the boundaries that’s why they continue to be interesting and keep the listener engaged

Yes!! All Hail!!

The production is so crisp and smooth not over produced

Sick!!! That got me so hyped. Can’t wait for this one to come out! I already preordered it.

This was awesome. Thanks for posting this! This album is GREAT! And excellent sound!!!

Love you guys

Listened to the album and honestly I think it’s their best. Well made. Well produced. The vocals are killer as well.

You are bests and beasts Landslide defeater was just a mindblowing Cant wait for new album

Yo i really like the sound.....WOW good stuff Will and NormaJean..killing it!!

This album was amazing. Out of all of the albums released that year by new bands and old bands that were reuniting or finally releasing new music, this album was the best. Norma Jean is so awesome.

When Monuments does a fork and knife slide on guitar, and Norma Jean TAKES THE BIGGEST FUCKING KNIFE THEY COULD

Pleaseee release a live version video of the album ! Btw awesome bass sound

All Hail is 100% album of the year

I just want to play music with my friends🎈🧸

Last álbum was amazing

That was unreal. So good.

Watching this was so cool now that I know the words to what they played

Prey for this, pray for this

All Hail is going to be amazing!

massive props for still rocking an " a secret death " jumper. theyre from my home town and still on heavy rotation in my car.

Amazing album

I like it!

5:50 that break probably opened a series of black holes through out the universe! So f!cking heavy!

INSANE!!!!!!

Unbox Therapy guy playing bass, very nice

Bless the Martyr changed my life

I have never heard a better heavy band.

Cory is right. This band is special to someone. And i def want more records in the future.

❤

I feel like this record is under-appreciated.

Instrumentally brutal deep emotional heavy...awesome guys...really awesome. Sure the whole album is gonna be the same

The riffs in that track remind me of Dimebag. Some cool bending and innovative riffing.

Oh Shit!!!! Thanks

Best band ever.

this album was my favorite since anti mother

6:16 that slide gave me chills ..fuhhk

...dem boyz wit the big ole pupils.

Oh man, can't wait to hear Cory's vocals over that last track!

Bring the thunder NJ!

Like alot of modern albums from legendary bands this album took a couple listens but it might actually be my favorite album. Its got a nice slow build then its just fucking slamming

Fuck yess

No one should dislike this

What tuning do they play in?

Rusty Butcher shirt?

who is the filthy son of a gun that wrote that outro to trace level? All hail to you sire

fuck.when they kick on thoes octave pedals it sounds so god damn mean. I need an octave pedal now.

SO PUMPED for this record

What is the bass Cory plays on Safety Last ?

What brand bass guitar is Cory jamming? It’s gorgeous

All hail Will Putney !

He also worked with silent planet on everything was sound

What bass guitar is that and also what pickups haha

I've always known about norma Jean but never listened to them. The moment I heard careen and translational I became infatuated

anyone already pre-ordered? gonna be so good

Sounds nice and tight

Why is this riff at the end the metalcore Foxy Lady?

Did Jeff Hickey write guitar parts for this record? I know he's no longer with the current lineup but he's playing with them here. I hope the guy gets healthy and comes back to the current lineup eventually. He's fuckin awesome!

of course you used a knife... it all makes sense now, as this record sliced my fucken brain!

Fuck yes the a secret death shirt.

Intro song?

Is that silent J on bass?
