Nomen Novum Photos, Tour, and 7″ Info
With all the attention the Atlanta music scene gets for a certain bands on-stage antics and flaming pussy farts it’s refreshing to know some people here are putting music and art first. Nomen Novum is just such a band. Led by Guitarist/Singer/Visual Artist David Norberry and also featuring Mark Godfrey and Alex Martin, as well as other guests musicians, Nomen Novum is a band that deserves a lot more attention from local and national fans.
Their recent 7″ “Mantis Man” is a great record, from the production to the all the serious badass stuff that comes with it. For $5 you get all this:

For 5 bucks you couldn’t buy all the blank media, paper, and materials that went into it. Fuck “Free” as the new price model, these guys are losing cash on each record they sell, if that’s not dedication to your work then I don’t know what is. You’ll never get a greater deal on any piece of art.
You can buy the record from Criminal Records, Wax ’N Facts and Ella Guru. Or just send $5 to:
