Rebellion (band)

Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Cite This Source

Rebellion is a German heavy-metal band. It was formed when guitarist Uwe Lulis left Grave Digger, taking ex-Grave Digger bassist Tomi Göttlich with him. Their first album was a concept album about William Shakespeare's work Macbeth, and included spoken passages with members of the band and other people as the story's characters.

The second album involved more standard heavy-metal lyrics – about motorcycles, metal, war, etc. – and the music was somewhat rougher.

In 2005 they released the first part of what is intended to be a trilogy about the Vikings and Norse mythology.

Ex-drummer Randy Black is now playing in Primal Fear. Ex-guitarist Björn Eilen is now playing in Silver Maiden and The Talkies.
