Insights from the Band
Keenan has indicated that *Normal Isn’t* will reflect the band's early influences, merging elements of goth and punk. Co-vocalist Carina Round elaborated on the creative process, noting that Keenan provided clear intentions for the album's sound, which allowed for a collaborative and fluid approach to songwriting. Mat Mitchell, who co-produced the album, emphasized the desire for a raw and aggressive sound, stating, "From the outset, we had discussed an element of rawness and edge, which guitar brings."
The album features contributions from several musicians, including Greg Edwards on bass, Gunnar Olsen and Sarah Jones on drums, and guest appearances from Tool drummer Danny Carey and bass legend Tony Levin.
