It\u2019s where I came from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The band previews the 11-song collection with the release of \u201cSelf Evident\u201d and its accompanying video, filmed during a special August performance at Exchange L.A., where the group previewed the album in full for an intimate crowd of fans.<\/p>\n<p>Written and recorded across Arizona, Los Angeles, and on the road during last year\u2019s Sessanta tour,\u00a0<em>Normal Isn\u2019t\u00a0<\/em>blends the dark electronics and sharp humor Puscifer is known for with a more spontaneous creative process. \u201cFrom the outset, we had discussed an element of rawness and edge, which guitar brings,\u201d shares Mitchell, who co-produced the album. \u201cWe got rid of the guard rails and made the music more aggressive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Keenan, this release represents a new approach to songwriting. While he\u2019s always been deeply involved in shaping Puscifer\u2019s sound, this time he set-up his own digital recording system and built full song ideas before presenting them to Mat and Carina.<\/p>\n<p>That shift gives the music fresh immediacy, one that Round says changed the dynamic in the studio. \u201cInstead of just saying, \u2018<em>I want this to sound like Fleetwood Mac on cocaine if they had a baby with PJ Harvey<\/em>,\u2019 Maynard was showing us his intention, which was really cool,\u201d she explains. \u201cIn Puscifer, any idea can totally change without any preciousness, and everybody is on board \u2013 not unlike an insane asylum. We found each other because we\u2019re demented in a symbiotic way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Normal Isn\u2019t<\/em>\u00a0reflects this time we are living in,\u201d Keenan adds. \u201cAs storytellers and artists, our job is to observe, interpret, and report. We take in our environment and share what we see, and what we see around us does not appear normal. Not by a long shot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Contributors to the new collection include Greg Edwards (bass), Gunnar Olsen (drums), and Sarah Jones (drums) with guests Tony Levin (bass on \u201cNormal Isn\u2019t\u201d and \u201cSeven One\u201d), Danny Carey (drums on \u201cSeven One\u201d) and Mr. Ian Ross (father of Atticus Ross, who narrates \u201cSeven One\u201d).<\/p>\n<p><em>Normal Isn\u2019t<\/em>\u00a0is available now for pre-order and pre-saves (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/Puscifer.lnk.to\/NormalIsnt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/Puscifer.lnk.to\/NormalIsnt<\/a>), including multiple limited-edition vinyl variants: standard black, indie retail orange swirl, a Puscifer.com exclusive black ice and clear with black splatter, and a Queen B Vinyl Caf\u00e9 fruit punch in tan with black and white splatter.
