Review

Unlike many artists who stay stuck in the mold cast by their debut, the Normals have transcended to a new place of inspiration with their sophomore release, Coming to Life. This project has the same mix of brooding power and gentle swell that one would find in the forces of nature, drawing admiration as well as respect. The focus of its punch is found within the subject matter, which poetically crafts a bittersweet picture of life by zeroing in on the pain and failure that accompany being human. God's ability to redeem these darkened situations is offered as the hope that always delivers. Surrounding and invading the message, the musical dynamic rises and falls without jolting you from your seat. This music sneaks up on you. Its down-to-earth quality draws out a relaxed sentiment, while its otherworldly intensity stirs up emotion that challenges even the stoic. Some of the surreal guitar work and passionate vocal flavors are clearly influenced by U2, but the Normals do not come across as a U2 wipe-up band. Mixed with their unique folk-pop styling and artistic stretch, Coming to Life has a brilliance that is both accessible and daring. --Israel Button
