CLASSIC ROCK BROUGHT TO LIFE
Despite their mixed backgrounds, the members of the Norwegian band Rebolt came together for one single reason: The love for old fashioned heavy metal and hard rock!

Their songs are a humble batch of rock’n’roll which has got both soul and playfulness written all over it. In short, it is an honest attempt to make the audience dig up their air guitars and put their pedals to the metal (although rather not at the same time!). It was the guitar riffs and solos, the big choruses and the unpretentious joy of bands such as AC/DC, Rose Tattoo, Iron Maiden or a modern band like Danko Jones. which lead to the foundation of Rebolt during the winter of 2004.

Rebolt was founded on the basic idea that it was possible to be serious about music without trying to «save» rock by attempting to be knights in shining armour.

    Rebolt is featured on the cover-cd of Classic Rock Magazine this month with the 2006 song “Bad Boy (For You)”. The cd is put together with artists inspired by AC/DC, to coincide with the imminent “Black Ice” release. Other artists on the cd are Saxon, Airbourne, The Donnas, Krokus and the band that inspired “Bad Boy”; Rose Tattoo. This is a great honour for us and a wonderful chance to get the world to experience the no-nonsense rock of Rebolt! :-) This is what Classic Rock writes about us: “Norwegian band Rebolt are such fans of AC/DC that when they formed in 2004 they orginally called themselves Powerage. Since then they’ve changed their name but kept their commitment to heads-down, no-nonsense rock’n'roll. Their snarly anthem Bad Boy For You says it all, really. Turn it up! Bonus fun fact: last year, Rebolt’s enduring Lemmy’s Heart appeared on the soundtrack of outstandingly titled Norwegian ski movie Kong Vinter 4: The Lost Hygge. (Sadly, Lemmy does not appear in the film.)”

    The band will record two new songs in a couple of weeks for a compilation of local bands. These two songs will be a new version of Lemmy´s Heart and the brand new S.A.M.. Both songs will be included on Rebolts debut album, hopefully released this year.
