Bazz Normann is a female fronted alternative rock band from Belgium inspired by the 80's indie pop & the 90's brit pop bands like Oasis, the Smiths


Selling Stories starts directly with a high drive bring us mid-card alternative rock. The chorus is nice and a bit catchy. The vocals (Steffi Onderbeek) are good, just as the global sound.

I Bet You Won’t (Johan Lagaert) gives more attention to the lead guitar who can clearly show off it’s potential! The tempo is pretty high and that’s a good thing! I like it!

Tomorrow Immortal is my least favourite track on this EP. I feel the Steffi struggles a bit at certain passages to keep the right tone. Her voice also gets a lower bass sound. The guitar sound is amazing. I just wish I could hear the bass guitar a bit more.

Wrong Time Wrong Road sounds like performed in an old bar that smells like alcohol and cigarettes and has a rough edge. The global sound is good and I like the tempo, just like the vocals.

Infected is a slow end for a short EP (but hey EP’s are always short if they are good). Somehow this song feels like a false ballad and brings us another side of Steffi’s vocals. The lyrics are bringing in some sadness.

Bazz Normann is in the end a nice mid-card band with potential. I noticed on their social media that they are growing and I can predict they are on the good road: slowly building up a sound and working on the character of the band! Keep up the good work! Support talented people from Belgium and help them grow!
