Norma Jean - Deathrattle Sing For Me (August 12, 2022) Album • Page 8

Low Teens is probably the greatest metalcore album ever not called All We Love We Leave Behind

 

Hell yeah, underrated among the Converge fans but one of my faves too!

 

Almost every converge fan I know thinks it’s their best or second best haha

 

Lol I must be talking to the wrong people then

 

Yes I was also under the impression You Fail Me and Jane Doe are considered their best. I am also in that camp.

 

You Fail Me is definitely my go to. It was one of my gateway albums into heavier, more menacing music.

 

Yeah, I think this is growing into my favorite Norma Jean record. Just incredible all around.

 

Agreed. I was listening to “Penny Margs” this morning when that realization hit me. It’s the perfect representation of the album - moody, grungy, unpredictable, punishingly heavy, and just a bit unsettling.

 

Yes!

The album just blends everything they've been doing together in a really great cohesive album. There's some cleaner vocals but not too much, there's the punishing heaviness, there's atmospherics. It's all just there. Loving it so much.

 

Penny Margs is up there with Spearmint Revolt as favorite on the album.

 

W W A V V E is sooo goood

 

The delivery of the line “I can suffer so much better than you” in Any% is one of my favorite moments of any record this year.

 

Sleep Explosion just keeps rocking my world.

 

Every time I listen to that outro to Spearmint Revolt in the car, I feel like I'm going to bust my speakers.

 

I would probably pick Radical over anything between ETID and NJ… but Wrongdoers and Death Rattle aren’t far behind.


Death Rattle is easily in top 3 status for NJ’s discography. It’s just so good.
