Normal is the new album from Bumblefoot, featuring punk-pop songs reminiscent of Foo Fighters & Green Day. Highlighted by Bumblefoot's trademark mind-blowing guitar work, & integrating quirkiness sure to please fans of Frank Zappa and Mike Patton, this may be Bumblefoot's best album yet.

Normal brings you into the world of an insane musician who takes medication and experiences what it's like to be 'normal' for the first time - the only downside is that he can no longer make music. Eventually he must choose either sanity with silence - or music with darkness. The songs on Normal follow his journey, leaving you to ponder, "What's 'normal,' anyway?"

Reviews:


 

"In the spirit of Foo Fighters and Green Day, Bumblefoot cranks out some of the most convincing, well-endowed, punk-bred power pop ever seen (or heard) at CD Baby. Laced with killer, driving guitar lines & an unstoppable beat, Normal is an absolute must for fans of the above mentioned acts." (EDITOR'S PICK)
- CD Baby


"Slipping into mid-ground between the rollicking pop of The Click Five and brash roots punk of Green Day, Bumblefoot tosses interesting surprises at you. Beyond the talented songwriting and sardonic lyrics (check out “Pretty Ugly”) the guitar solos, particularly in “Turn Around” make you wonder if Yngwie is shredding the ax here. The wild insanity of “The Color Of Justice” will raise your blood pressure."
- Music Morsels

"...an avalanche of fluid guitar playing with daring ideas & furious but humble solos, a whole rock 'n' roll package with some pop touches.... System Of A Down meets Frédéric Chopin..."

- W-Fenec

"...by far, Bumblefoot's best work to date. Punk rock with power pop hooks that are rich in melody..." (EDITOR'S PICK)
- Smother.net

"Bumblefoot does it again with another amazing album showcasing his creative composing, arranging, singing & shredding skills. Normal explores the idea of what it means to be normal in society and whether it's really worth altering oneself in order to fit. Despite it's name, Normal contains many of the quirky, out of the ordinary musical features that make it noticeably Bumblefoot."
- Chinaski

"Nothing is ever normal with Bumblefoot. But this is a CD that every punk rock fanatic should have. The lyrics are as crazy as always, but the feel is just right."
- Tjeerd Stelma

"You could play this album to anyone and I would be surprised if they failed to enjoy it."
- Mark Burgess
