[ [http://jam.canoe.ca/Music/Pop_Encyclopedia/F/Forgotten_Rebels.html CANOE - JAM! Music - Pop Encyclopedia - Forgotten Rebels ] ] right up until the present time, the Forgotten Rebels have left a legacy of seven albums and a collection of EPs and singles that have influenced many other Canadian and international bands forming in their wake.Fact|date=October 2007 They have been described as "one of punk's most gleefully racist bands," [ [http://www.brokenpencil.com/features/feature.php?featureid=31 broken pencil - the magazine of zine culture and the independent arts ] ] though this is a common misconception derived from a misinterpretation of the lyrics to one of their early songs. “It’s time that we be nice to each other. And if somebody’s acting out of line, he gets his ass kicked. Racism is stupid,” lead singer and founder Mickey De Sadist has stated. “People should listen to our music for what it is. I was making fun of rednecks in “Bomb the Boats.” More than anything, I was just making fun of that. But I guess it came across the wrong way.” [ [http://www.echoweekly.com/printer.php?storyid=3975 Echo Weekly Online Edition ] ] ] Discography
