Morgantown's Turn Around Norman lay down a melodic assault that has drawn them many comparisons to both the mid-90s Gravity sound and current bands such as Orchid or Yaphet Kotto. Dual (male/female) vocals are screamed and sung with an intensity equal to the driving music. Heartattack raved about their first EP that "the lyrics are eloquent and discuss political and personal issues. The packaging is lovely. The music is filled with emotions that cover anything between anger and joy. I love it!" Collective zine agrees: "if you are into that melodic, screamy emo style you will totally love this record."
