“Solar Caesar” is the 2nd single to be released, after “No second Troy”, in advance of Rome’s new full length “Hegemonikon”.

The new single for the Luxembourg based dark folk act is out as a black 40 gramms 7″ vinyl in a high quality, super-audiophile disc, German pressing. Strictly limited to 500 copies.

Just like the previous single “No second Troy”, Jérôme Reuter added electronica elements on “Solar Caesar”. Also the B-Side “This Surrender” blends rock and electronica.

Rome rapidly gained a name in the neo-folk scene by the early works released on the defunct Cold Meat Industry. Rome next moved to Trisol while the music progressively evolved, touching ground with different music genres.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
