Rebolt Made In Spite EP CD

CLASSIC ROCK BROUGHT TO LIFE«Made In Spite EP» is Rebolt’s first official release. It includes four original hard hitting rock tunes in the rock/metal vein, but was updated with two more songs later on.Despite their mixed backgrounds, the members of the Norwegian band came together for one single reason: The love for old fashioned heavy metal and hard rock! The songs featured on their debut EP is 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 and Iron Maiden which lead to the foundation of Rebolt during the winter of 2004. The band had previously recorded two four-track demos under the ad-hoc name of Powerage back in 2004 and 2005. Although they were both crammed with impressive tunes, the sound quality of these early recordings left much to be desired.This time around there were much more studio time at hand, a fact which without doubt reveals itself on the refined finished product. The guitar sounds better than ever, the drums are solid and powerful, the bass is dense and rocksteady and the shining vocals are as dynamic and energetic as they are on stage. The sum of it all is a cliché, but still spot on: this is hard hitting as hell!Rebolts energetic and charismatic singer Frode is in the centre of the stage, claiming the attention of the audience right from the first note to the final riff. This is a rock singer who can smile and look people in the eye all at once, and still sing as if his lungs were bleeding. This get-up-and-go attitude both on record and on stage has lead to support jobs for internationally recognized Norwegian bands such as Ralph Myerz & The Jack Herren Band and Span among others.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. The musical background of the four members would usually imply that they were poles apart, but their diverse individual credentials from jazz, rock and funk among other genres, have in fact proved to be their greatest strength. Other encouraging acts include Rose Tattoo, The Cult, AC/DC, Iron Maiden and Danzig.During the years which has gone since Rebolt’s formation, the quartet has managed to earn a small but devoted international fan base as well as a name for themselves on the local live circuit in Norway. The reasons for their achievements are as simple as the ideas that were evident when they first met: To play extremely tight rock’n’roll and engage their audience while bringing their joy of music to a full view.Bring your air guitar out of the closet and enjoy, dude.---------PRESS ABOUT THE BAND:"A tribute to classic rockIn spite of playing late at night and on a venue not too close to the festival area, many had found their way to Smuget to see rockers Rebolt. The band are solid performers of classic rock with the focus on great riffs, big bass, dynamic drumming and most of all singalong choruses where in particular the songs High Road Down and My Generator get stuck in your head. Vocalist Frode Jørum is a born frontman with his energetic stage presence that easily wins over the audience. A sweaty concert concludes with Lemmy’s Heart, a tribute to Motörheads famous frontman. Rebolt are a rock’n'roll band that’s got it all and deserves to be known to a bigger audience.”Kristoffer Mosfjeld, Musiq.no“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 enduri
