Quirky Belgium

10 bands, 3 songs each, a packed crowd – the battle was on for 25,000 euros and the chance to become the next big thing last Sunday at the Humo Rock Rally, Belgium’s ultimate battle of the bands competition. 




It takes place every two years, and since 1978 it’s been the catalyst for some of Belgium’s most famous groups – dEUS, Das Pop, Admiral Freebee, The Black Box Revelation, Goose.

There were some great acts this year, although none of my favorites made it into the top three. 

The winners
1. Warhola
2. Nordmann
3. Five Days

My favorites
1. High Hi
2. Humble Flirt
3. Byron Bay

Most entertaining
Hazy Hands
