This rockin’ band of loons hails from the Boston area and has been thrilling audiences for decades with their high octane blend of punk rock and Irish music. They followed in the footsteps of fellow Irish-American supergroup, Black 47, but stand on their own reputation which is considerable. The line-up has changed over the years […]
Sea Change by Robert B. Parker (2006) Jesse Stone is the Chief of Police for the small Massachusetts town of Paradise. Although you would expect such a place to be relatively quiet, you would be mistaken. Paradise is a hot bed of death, drugs and intrigue and Chief Stone is a very busy man. In this […]
Creepy cults. That could describe the British Tory Party. Change one letter and that would still describe the British Tory Party. Having seen the Children of the Corn, Rebel Voice still shivers when a blonde child looks this way, and don’t get us started on wicker furniture. Anyhoo, here’s a look at one list of […]
This track from The Dead South is gloriously difficult to categorise. It has the sounds and vocals of a bluegrass song, the rhythm of a show-tune and the vibe of a blues or perhaps even gospel hit. It’s fantastic. The video alone is well worth the time it takes to watch. It’s simple, catchy, doesn’t […]
The stories of terror that regularly emerge from the tortured land and people of Palestine are many. Brave men, women and children struggle daily to forge decent lives for themselves, and each other, in face of constant Israeli brutality and Apartheid. Those of us on the outside can only look on in both admiration at […]

This classic track will be best known as the theme to the hit TV series, The Sopranos. It’s one of those songs that has it all, pace, rhythm, great instrumentals and lyrics. Amazingly, Alabama 3 are an English band founded in Brixton in 1995. Who’da thunk it? Rebel Voice recommends listening to this song whilst […]
The Crusades were a sustained campaign over many years, by (pseudo-) Christian Europe, in which attempts were made to regain control of the Holy Lands for the benefit of the Church of Rome. These armed endeavours met with mixed results, but ultimately failed. The conflicts did, however, sow the seeds of both distrust and resentment […]
The tragic circumstances of Palestine are well documented by this time. There are reports, news articles, films and documentaries. Yet still the brutality of the Israeli regime persists unabated. The age group in Palestine that suffers the greatest ordeal is that of the children. Today, the children of Palestine are being continually traumatised by the […]
Neon Prey by John Sandford (2019) US Marshal Lucas Davenport is back in the latest blockbuster from the pen of John Sandford (John Roswell Camp). This time the maverick lawman is on the trail of a serial killer cannibal responsible for many grisly murders, some of which were undertaken during his employment as a hit […]
Upon first hearing this wonderful song, Rebel Voice was convinced that it was performed by a Texan country band of tremendous talent. But no, wrong, terribly wrong. First Aid Kit are a Swedish duo of tremendous talent consisting of sisters, Klara and Johanna Söderberg. They sing like they are from Texas though; tut, tut, girls, […]
It’s perhaps of concern that so many people like to dress up as horror villains and wear masks associated with evil intent. Halloween must be a psychologist’s wet dream. We, the people, like to become the bad guy, if only in our fevered imaginations. We become Michael Myers, Leatherface and Freddie Kruger, giving little thought […]
