Literally the first Real Screamo band I've ever heard in my life. The first song I heard from them was Because there aren't enough hours in a day. I flipped the fuck out. It was unique. I always thought bands such as Alesana and all those shit major bands was Screamo. The Spirit of Versailles proved me the fuck wrong. From Sioux Falls,South Dakota this band exploded my body and re-created a better one. I'm glad I found this band on one of my high school buds ipod, which I discovered in Early Fall 2008 from there I went on to different bands similar to this til even now for a band existing July 1998 - October 2000 they released many releases 8 songs cdr, The Confluence Of All The Senses EP, In line for halos 7", Rise from run/The spirit of versailles split 7", Songs Of the dead 2 Compilation, The spirit of versailles/Saqqara split 7", Live @ WNYU Radio Show (Which I think it was released in limited 7"), they also had an untitled unreleased song that was finally shown on there complete 2 disc cd discography. The discography is still available on there labels big cartel for 8 bucks. very cheap. It has all of the releases I named. This band is truly one of the first bands to actually inspire me into screaming rather than screaming and to influence me and letting me know that major labels are totally fucking shit. One of the most important bands in my life I would say this one. Though not my favorite but the first to haved opened my eyes. I do hear 2 vocalist scream in different of the releases like an example on the 8 songs,Live @ WNYU Radio Show, caligari split, and unreleased track has a much of a deeper scream and a whiny singing voice while in line for halos, The Confluence Of All The Senses, Rise from run split, Songs Of the dead 2 Compilation track, and Saqqara split the scream is much high pitch as a little girl screaming (gnarly scream) I don't know how, what or why but I am guessing they changed vocalist or the vocalists voice changed, don't know. but for those who don't know the spirit of versailles or members. one of the members went on in forming In loving memory (the one with the high pitch scream; totally sounds like a second the spirit of versailles) and other members went on the form examination of the... which both bands did a split together (it is fucking neat). I always thought Screamo was about the gay hair, the stupid hiding the face and bullshit sing talking in beggining of songs. I am very glad this 90's band proved me the hell wrong I will say again.
