Editor's note

Rebecca's Norwegian rock with a raw edge

A band from Oslo whose 1993 debut single "Noise From Your Heart" topped the Norwegian charts.

For a quick sense of their range, try "Motor Drive" and "Lonely Butterfly." They frame what the band does pretty well.

That debut single "Noise From Your Heart" wasn't just a hit, it established their sound as Norwegian rock with a raw edge that actually connected with listeners. Songs like "Motor Drive" and "Lonely Butterfly" showed they could do driving rock and more reflective moments without losing that directness. They kept recording and playing through lineup changes, which says something about the music holding up.

Rebecca formed in Oslo in 1989 with Tore Østby on vocals and guitar. Their self-titled debut album came out in 1993, and the single "Noise From Your Heart" became a chart-topper in Norway. Lineup changes happened over the years, Øystein Jevanord left in 2002, Per Borten retired from drumming in 2007, but they kept going.
