The Normal Album is Will Wood’s third studio album, released July 10th, 2020. The album’s genres range from ska, punk, jazz, cabaret, surf rock, pop, and even doo-wop. The track “I / Me / Myself” is Will’s most streamed song, after it went viral on TikTok and exponentially grew his popularity.
The Normal Album got a new mix after parting with one of the original album’s main producers. The new mix, The New Normal!, included three extra 2018 demo tracks, and a remaster of every song, each now paired with a sillier version of their original titles, except for the track “Love, Me Normally”. The New Normal! was released on August 9th, 2024.
The covers for The Normal Album and The New Normal! display both Will’s name and the album’s title in Georgia. Both album versions include a sticker in the bottom left corner with a silly commercial slogan saying various messages depending on the version.
The Normal Album has only had one version of the sticker on its album art, with the message “INCLUDES THE HIT SINGLE ‘LOVE, ME NORMALLY!’ AND MORE NEW, ORIGINAL SONGS!” displayed in stretched Sitka.
The New Normal! has had many different album covers, plausibly depending on the type of media it’s consumed through. It and the very elusive 2023 Edit use Times New Roman for their slogans.
