Though it merely collected the leftover tracks from 1994's {^Ceremony of Opposites}, the {^Rebellion} EP still serves as a tasty morsel of what {$Samael} was about to accomplish musically. Tracks like {&"Rebellion"} and {&"Static Journey"} advance the Swiss {\black metal} merchants' experiments with synths and electronic drumbeats, and an amusing cover of {$Alice Cooper}'s {&"I Love the Dead"} adds a little variety to boot. ~ Ed Rivadavia, All Music Guide
