Rebellion is a German power metal band. It was formed in 2001 when guitarist Uwe Lulis left Grave Digger in 2000, 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.
While their early works are solid in the power metal genre, their later three albums (the History of Vikings series) move into a semi-folk feel. Still mostly dominated by power metal, but with folkish influences. I really like the History of Vikings series, and don't much care for their first two albums, but you decide which is best.
