The Rebs are a pop band in the true sense of the word - creating fresh singalongs that couple the alternative with the mainstream. Their mission is simple - to put to shame those big bands whose songs you forget a minute after they have finished. The scenesters. The fads. When playing live the band shine, endearing any audience as they quickly get across what they are all about. 2007 saw them support major acts such as The Enemy, Tiny Dancers, John Power (Cast) and Five O'Clock Heroes, as well as lining-up with Supergrass and The Ordinary Boys at GuilFest - it seems that they are a very well kept secret. With the band taking their influences from good songs, not just hip artists, the results are unique and catchy tunes, inspired by real life stories and ahead of popular culture. Stay tuned to see what happens...

Saw the rebs at Guilfest last year - they are amazing live and they will make it big one way or another.
dymond
top band. i'd pay to see these guys live (and i have). the frontman has bags of charisma, and should consider standup comedy too. great tunes! these guys could sell out big venues once they get their music out there. rebs to win...and play beta love!

Seriously good guys. The only band of the 14 that I want to hear an album from.
Charlie Chalk
Ahh!!! yet ANOTHER rubbish Indie band!
Oki Dog
Do you guys take heroin as well like Pete Doherty and aspire to go out with Alexa Chung at the same time? You know what I mean. Y-A-W-N.

Awesome! Ones to watch.
Arcadian1
Yeah it was, sorry about that- too many beers in front of computor letting the frustration pop despairingly. You've got great vocals, seriously hope you do well in the gig phases! We'll be wathching. All the best, ARCADIAN
Jungle
Yeah despite being a fan of Arcadian and gutted they didn't get through, this band are good and have a strongest sound to them. With reference to nick24a's comment, God bless Arcadian but go and win it The Rebs- you deserve it! DJ Jungle x
Rat Lover
Well done for making the final 14 - great achievement. Lady Jane is a brilliant song, and to think there is better to come on the 13th - can't wait. Long live the super rat and don't forget a longer cable for the gui-tar. Beta Love 12. x

jen123
Best song out of the top 14. the only one that makes me wanna get in the mood. the others just dont have the same energy. You guys are awesome
nick24a
Just saw you guys live. F'ing awesome. one of the best live bands ive seen. Oh and Arcadian1. the reason you didnt make it is simple. you were not good enough. No need to put others down mate. just try harder next time and try and keep positive.
vespasian
Absolutely brilliant! Great songs, great look, great sound, great band - FULL STOP Now get that Arcadian1 out of my face! beta love

Gash! Anyone reading this who sees RED- this comments for you. We're sick and tired of seeing this RUBBISH get put through the featured profile, and not to mention the marginal mush of bands that have been chosen to go into the final 14 this year! Its exactly the same as last year with style over substance being the dominating factor of what 'should' win. Forget about the bands on here who are real Grafters in trying to develop their unsigned status, and have put in the leg work to maximise in their varied reviews and honest ratings from their support- just pick the ones who have a good photo because they do 'so-so-so much' to get people onto this site in return for getting a profile! Or is just because good bands are discriminated against for making the effort?! Lets all enjoy it then, come on x
