REBELLION Introduces New Drummer

August 20, 2011

Czech Republic-based drummer David Faifer has left German metallers REBELLION and has been replaced by Matthias Karle. The band said in a statement, "It was more difficult for [David] to move to Germany that we thought and the distance made regular rehearsals nearly impossible, so he decided to leave."

A video message from REBELLION in which they introduce their new drummer can be seen below.

REBELLION last December parted ways with Uwe Lulis (guitar),Gerd Lcking (drums) and Simone Wenzel (guitar) and replaced them with Oliver Geibig, David Faifer and Karut, respectively.

REBELLION 2011 is:

Michael Seifert - Vocals
Tomi Gttlich - Bass
Oliver Geibig - Guitar
Stephan Karut - Guitar
Matthias Karle - Drums

Gerd and Uwe have plans to form a new band while Simone has joined VERNISSAGE.

REBELLION's latest full-length album (the third part of the "History of the Vikings" saga),"Arise: From Ragnark to Ginnungagap - The History of the Vikings Volume III", came out in July 2009 via Massacre Records.
