In connection with the release of Maestro, Kaizers Orchestra signed an international record deal with Universal Germany, taking them from one of the smallest labels to one of the biggest. The third album, Maestro, was released on 15 August 2005 in Norway and Europe. The second album, Evig pint, was released in February 2003. Ompa til du dГёr also made Kaizers Orchestra the highest-selling rock debut to be released in the Norwegian language. The album won a Spellemannpris (Norwegian Grammy) for 'best rock album', as well as two Alarm-awards (underground version of Spellemannprisen). It was critically acclaimed and became a success, first in Norway, later in Denmark and the Netherlands. Their first album, Ompa til du dГёr, was released on this label in September 2001. Kaizers Orchestra's sound and creative use of instruments was noticed by the small, Scandinavian label Broilerfarm. During by:Larm, a Norwegian festival focusing on up-and-coming artists, the band's songs were played frequently on the radio. In 2000, Kaizers Orchestra recorded the Kaizers Orchestra EP, containing four songs: 'Bastard', 'BГёn fra helvete', 'Katastrofen' and 'Dekk bord'. Kaizer took me in/He is the proud owner of the world's heaviest siamese cat') and the song's overall crowd response became a source of inspiration for Ottesen, and after gnom dissolved after disappointing record sales, he formed Kaizers Orchestra. However, they were known well in the area around Stavanger in Norway, having played as the local band Blod, snГҐtt & juling, and one of the songs they wrote after Mys called 'Bastard' got good crowd response. Of its 1000 copies, only 500 or so were sold the first year. In 1998, childhood friends Janove Ottesen and Geir Zahl released their only album by their band gnom called Mys.
