Artist History Formed in 1995, Rebel's Mother was not to be your typical thrash band. The first unique feature was Melanie, a female drummer with lethal double bass. The next unusual addition was Jeremy, a lyricist writing from the perspective of the Christian faith. As a former student of Soul Motor guitarist Tommy McClendon, his axe attack is a major part of their heavy sound. The blast became a double barrel with Chris who added a second guitar to the arsenal along with the grace of piano and vocal harmonies.
