This is either just me as a solo person jamming and then putting the clips up here, or, Charlie and I when we rock out and record it.
Why this name?
One of my friends told me to listen to a band called Norma Jean. I told him, "it would be so much better if there was an l and an s at the end of those two words to make Normal Jeans"
Do you play live?
I personally don't... because that would just be stupid. Charlie and I usually play at the Maranatha church at decatur, and sometimes at a talent show or something.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It's the best thing ever. Lousy government.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
HELL YES! Why the f*** wouldn't I?
Band History:
I was born, I learned how to play instruments, met Charlie, who also plays instruments, and we decided we liked each other, and became friends, then we formed a band to do a christian fine arts show (which is funny because while I'm christian, he's so an agnostic atheist).
Your influences?
Kevin: Diecast, Bury Your Dead, Dead Nervous System, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Hendrix (I don't listen to his stuff, but he's definitely influenced my whammy bar usage), a lot of death metal. Oh yes, Sepultura... definitely up there.
Favorite spot?
Kevin: Antarctica rules, then Comes Banff, Canada... great skiing, and of course the grand canyon.
Equipment used:
Peavey Raptor Plus, medium picks, Rage 158 amp, Digitech Death Metal Distortion pedal, and an RP50 multieffects.
Charlie's drums consist of a tom, a floor tom, a snare (with duct tape around it to keep it "on"), trashed cymbals, and a bass-drum that's missing the back of it.

Anything else...?
Real Guitarists use Heavy distortion, Drop C, and Solid State Half-Stacks.
