Saetia
Saetia was a New York City-based screamo band that is often considered one of the definitive groups of the genre, and they are often credited as being the source of a resurgence in popularity the genre experienced in the late 1990s. Saetia existed as a band from February 1997 to October 1999, when they broke up. Their name originates from a misspelling of the Miles Davis track "Saeta", from his landmark album Sketches of Spain, which, in turn, was named after a religious tradition of flamenco music. (This is similar to fellow screamo band Joshua Fit For Battle, whose name was a corruption of the traditional American spiritual song "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho"; other members of Saetia later formed Off Minor, which is the title of a Thelonious Monk composition.)
