Biography

With the release of their first album, On Your Feet (1997) and continuing through their second record, ...What Remains (1999), The Spoken sound was a combination of rap meets metal, and a bit of melodic rock. On the third full-length release, Echoes of the Spirit Still Dwell (2000) embodied a heavier, more melodic approach to song writing, with songs like "Forevermore" and "This Path", generating repeated rotations on various modern rock radio across the country. Drastic changes in style often lead to a loss of a band's original audience. Spoken on the other hand, has done the exact opposite. With each album the band grew to inherently be themselves, and widen their overall appeal, while gaining more and more fans in the process.
