There are 2 bands with the name Cassius.
(1) For anyone who was 20 years old in the ‘90s, the decade will remain the one in which a handful of French pop artists set themselves apart on the market and international dance floors. These successes might have been isolated, but the French DJs and electronic artists of the ‘90s - like Daft Punk and Cassius - were part of a collective wave that stamped the covers of newspapers and magazines around the world with that “French touch.”
Cassius is a French electronic music duo comprising of producers Phillipe Cerboneschi and Hubert Blanc-Francard, better known as Philippe Zdar and Boom Bass. They started working together in 1994, producing a hip-hop project called La Funk Mob. They started remixing tracks under the Cassius name in 1997, for acts such as Air and Daft Punk, before producing their own original works.
As hard rock and funk fans, Zdar (Philippe) and Boom-Bass (Hubert) first made their mark producing and engineering the sound sought by hip-hop artists - their great passion of the early ‘90s. But the raves Zdar attended converted him to house music and, with Etienne de Crécy, he founded Motorbass. British media opinion surveys chose Motorbass’s “Pansoul” as one of the year’s best albums, all styles combined.
BoomBass was soon infected by the techno speed-up, and hooked up with Zdar for a new project, called Cassius.

Cassius that was from Richmond, Virginia was so damn good that it's a shame they aren't still together. i only just recently got into this band with buying "I Am Jim Jones" from Interpunk for very cheap. all in all, i must say, they were a very solid band who wrote catchy metalcore jams. nothing less, nothing more.

YSTC is pretty boring, Y-S-T-C a little bit better but I like Almost Cut My Hair. I hope they will release some more tracks which are like tracks on au reve and 1999.
