Siége Perilous is the third full-length album released by the power metal band Kamelot. It was released on August 4, 1998, through Noise Records. It is the first album with Roy Khan (Conception) on vocals and Casey Grillo on drums, and is the final album to feature David Pavlicko on keyboards.

In Arthurian legend, the Siege Perilous, otherwise known as "The Seat Perilous", is the seat at The Round Table reserved for the knight who would quest for and return the Holy Grail.
