NoFaceNorm Biography
"With his grade school and adolescent years spent being fed a steady diet of video games and martial arts, NAME WITHHELD was a typical slacker who, through a series of circumstances, wound up as a director of a karate school at 19 years-old. With the weighted responsibility of tending to a burdgeoning business, he took up residence in a storage room in the basement out of "financial convenience" and "existential integrity". Deep down in this dark den of iniquity, his mind fell apart and he predictably went insane. Two weeks later, he quickly went back to work and pieced things together with handfuls of glue and LSD. It was through this act that NoFaceNorm was made manifest; a philosophical man of the arts who likes to sing and dance when no one is looking. Also, he's got no face."
