This is the unofficial homepage of Rebelation.

REBELATION HAS BEEN TOGETHER OVER THREE YEARS.  THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL LINE UP CHANGES AND THEY HAVE GROWN FROM A 4 PIECE TO A 6 PIECE.  FORMED TOWARDS THE END OF THE THATCHER MAJOR RIGHT WING CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT, THIS HAS HAD A BIG INFLUENCE ON THE REBELATION SOUND, WITH RESTRUCTIVE HUMAN RIGHTS LAWS BEING PASSED PUTTING ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP TO THE FESTIVAL SCENE IN BRITAIN. THE STYLE IS RESISTANT AND ANGRY YET POSITIVE AND UPLIFTING.

INFLUENCE CAME FROM ALL OVER THE MUSICAL SPECTRUM DUE TO THE VARIOUS MUSICAL BACKGROUNDS OF THE BAND MEMBERS.  IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEREOTYPE  REBELATION WHICH MEANS GIVING THEM A DEFINITION ISN’T EASY.  ON STAGE THEY PRODUCE PURE DANCE ENERGY WITH A SOLID REGGAE-SKA BACKDROP WHIPPING AUDIENCES UP INTO A FRENZY.  REBELATION DRAW INFLUCES FROM ARTISTS SUCH AS THE CLASH, STIFF LITTLE FINGERS, NEW MODEL ARMY, STEEL PULSE, THE SELECTOR, EARLY REGGAE SOUNDS OF THE WAILERS, MAYTALS AND SO ON.  HOWEVER THERE IS A DISTINCTIVE ‘REBELATION STYLE’ BEING PRODUCED WHICH SOME CALL ‘AGITSKA’.  THIS IS A REAL FUSION OF SOUND WHICH CONTRIBUTES TO THIS ORIGINAL STYLE.

ALTHOUGH AS YET REBELATION DON’T HAVE A RECORD DEAL THEY HAVE GONE INTO THE STUDIO IN JANUARY TO RECORD AN ALBUM WHICH IS AVAILABLE SINCE EARLY FEBRUARY.  THE ALBUM FEATURES SOME OF THE TRACKS THAT ARE CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON THE ‘REBEL EP’ AS WELL AS SOME NEW TUNES.  REBELATION PLANT TO BE OUT AND ABOUT THROUGHOUT 1998.
