Norma Jean sign to Razor & Tie; new album out in 2010

Scott Heisel on 11/3/09 @ 12:18 PM

Christian metalcore act Norma Jean have announced that they have signed with Razor & Tie Records. The band, who had previously released four albums on Solid State (including 2008's The Anti Mother), will release their R&T debut next summer.

"If we didn't sign to Razor & Tie, I think we would have gone on a killing spree, with no regard for life or limb," says NJ frontman Cory Brandan. "I think for the first time in our career, upon presenting our ideas, we get to hear the word 'yes' more often. It's like discovering an unknown tribe on a distant island. Except we're the tribe and we don't know your language. Plus we have spears and swords and we're cannibals. Either way, we're insanely animated about R&T showing up and want to try on their Nike Air Jordans."

The band are currently preparing for their Explosions 2009 tour, which kicks off Nov. 19 in New Orleans (dates).
