VestigialLung, #TransMusicMonday (KatieDavies, she/her)
The year is 1999, Norma Jean is the heaviest, most abrasive thing I’ve ever heard. It’s 2024, and I’ve finally heard a band that challenges that. Their second album is slightly softer than their first, more of a sonic punch in the face vs a punch in the throat, but the introduction of conceits such as dynamics and melody tend to make the brutal bits feel even harder.
