BAND: Assassinate Caesar! 
Assassinate Caesar!
Bio:
AC! are a two-piece electronic indie-rock band. They reside in Baltimore, MD. When people ask, what do you sound like? AC! usually shrugs and replies, "indie rock with a drum machine." Robby Lester (vocals/guitar/progr amming) might even give you the line "we sound like rock n roll beating the snot out of a dance club." James Bodenschatz (guitar/keyboards/pr ogramming) would never give such an answer. He would probably tell you, "don't listen to anything Rob says. He's insane."

Genre classifications and descriptions aside, the boys of AC! are quiet happy with their not-so-conventional line-up. Travelling, practicing and writing aren't nearly as complicated. For James and Rob, AC! is their escape from the daily grind. And while some might be turned off by the compressed sound of a drum machine or the absence of bass guitar, the stripped down sound is exactly what they were going for when they started in November 2005.

Fast forward a few months to current day. June 3rd, 2006 marked the release of Assassinate Caesar!'s first album, a full-length entitled "The Fiction Ploy." This 14-song album will be released with help of Fall Records (Baltimore, MD) some late in the summer. In the mean time, you can order merch here!

So what about the band name, what's up with that? What's it mean? The short answer, a personal reminder to Robby Lester, but for everyone else, the meaning is for one's imagination to create. Maybe you see it as a political stab. Maybe it fits well as you smooth your Sunday's bests. That's not your cup of tea? Maybe you would feel better to think the name screams utter blasphemy. A history buff? Maybe you see it as a reminder to the present day. The apathetic type, eh? Maybe it means nothing at all then. Whatever your take of the band's name becomes, your idea is just as plausible as the next.
