Biography
Norma Jean is an American metalcore band from Douglasville, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. Formed in 1997, the band has evolved through various lineup changes, resulting in no original members remaining. To date, Norma Jean has released nine studio albums and received a Grammy Award nomination in 2006 for Best Recording Package for their second album O' God, the Aftermath. The band's name is derived from the real name of actress Marilyn Monroe. The idea being that the band was forced to change their name from Luti-Kriss, much like Monroe herself was "forced."
