Versailles is a visual kei symphonic metal band based in Tokyo, Japan. Versailles was formed by vocalist Kamijo (ex-LAREINE, ex-NEW SODMY) and guitarist HIZAKI (HIZAKI grace project, ex-Sulfuric Acid, ex-Schwardix Marvally, ex-Crack brain).

The band also includes bassist Jasmine You (ex-Jyakura) and guitarist Teru (ex-Aikaryu) from HIZAKI grace project, and drummer Yuki (ex-SugarTrip). (Jasmine You passed away on the 9th of August 2009. The band reported on the 3rd of August that due to Jasmine You’s poor health condition, he had to take a break from the band’s activities. No further information has been given regarding the death of Jasmine You.)
The debut live took place at Ebisu LIQUID ROOM on June 24th 2007.

In March 2007, Versailles was formed by KAMIJO and HIZAKI, then Jasmine You , who was from Jakura and HIZAKI grace project, TERU from Aikaryu and YUKI from Sugar Trip, who was strongly recommended by Rock May Kan( a long established venue in Tokyo) joined the band.

KAMIJO and HIZAKI already had a concept of a new band since Autumn 2006 and took six months to find the appropriate members to express their ideal world. Its concept is “The absolute Youshikibi( beauty of form ) sound and extremes of aestheticism”

On 29th March, a name of each member were revealed, then a name of a band was announced on 30th March.

I had a massive eargasm through the entire Chateau de Versailles DVD. It was wonderful, and certainly the best live I've ever heard, ever, (and that's with Kamelot's live album in consideration, too) . I need to know their world tour dates for the US. If I miss them I will be very, very sad. :< It would definite make my life if they do another world tour in the future, but with other bands of either VK, metal, or both. :3

JUBILEE photo looks awesome (would be evenbetter if Jasmine was still alive, though) <3 I think I can probably listen to Silent Knight as the only song for the rest of my life, if it weren't for that I wouldn't be able to hear Kamijo's singing again. I love that song way too much.
