Caesars (band)
Caesars were a Swedish indie rock band from Stockholm, formed in 1995.

Caesar (band)
Caesar was a Dutch indie rock trio from Amsterdam, consisting of Roald van Oosten, Marit de Loos and Sem Bakker. The band was founded in 1994. Caesar released four studio albums, plus one retrospective release in 2006, ''Before My Band Explodes''. The band was stopped in 2008. They were named for Julius Caesar who is famous for being a Roman Dictator. History Early days In 1994 Roald van Oosten and Marit de Loos thought of starting a band together. Later that year Van Oosten met Sem Bakker. They discussed the idea that De Loos and Van Oosten have and Bakker agreed to join on bass. The fact that Bakker didn't play bass yet was seemingly not a problem. Thus Caesar’s line up was complete. After a mere month of playing together the trio released their first demo. The following year three more demos followed. The band was swiftly improving and Excelsior Recordings (then still known as ''(Nothing sucks like) Electrolux'') noticed. It is for this label that the band recorded its ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Album
An album is a collection of audio recordings issued on compact disc (CD), vinyl, audio tape, or another medium such as digital distribution. Albums of recorded sound were developed in the early 20th century as individual 78 rpm records collected in a bound book resembling a photograph album; this format evolved after 1948 into single vinyl long-playing (LP) records played at rpm. The album was the dominant form of recorded music expression and consumption from the mid-1960s to the early 21st century, a period known as the album era. Vinyl LPs are still issued, though album sales in the 21st-century have mostly focused on CD and MP3 formats. The 8-track tape was the first tape format widely used alongside vinyl from 1965 until being phased out by 1983 and was gradually supplanted by the cassette tape during the 1970s and early 1980s; the popularity of the cassette reached its peak during the late 1980s, sharply declined during the 1990s and had largely disappeared ...
