Formed in New York in 2000, Encryption has since evolved into a kinetic industrial metal mix of foreboding screams and melodic whispers against a searing wall of drum n bass hack grounded in musical substance, post-terror, and survival. Compelling song structures with spontaneous blast breaks and harsh atmospheres sustains a visceral intensity which has been likened to dark sci-fi film by the press. (In short, the track "No Escaping" is like an aural version of "The Matrix" on speed. - TGN webzine).

The story behind the imagery in the music is far more real than fiction, picking up from a tumultuous 2001, closing support shows for the "Digitalis" debut CD with the dense noise choirs of the song "The Anthropoid" and ending performances screaming about the Apocalypse and World War III. Followed by 9-11 / aftermath, and a violent brush with death on a Queens, NY street, Encryptions' return to the studio in 2002 sounded like the epic and prophetic end of an underground era. The recordings reflected a deeper strengthened musical assault although Encryption had charted across college radio electronic shows and showcased at clubs and industry conferences.

In 2002 the song Demonologized was released worldwide on “Don’t F**k With US”, a historic 3xCD compilation documenting the innovation of the American underground powernoise and hard breaks scene mastered by label head and music visionary Alec Empire, on the legendary Digital Hardcore Recordings, the European indie label most renown for Atari Teenage Riot and its eclectic roster. Reviews for the album by the electronic music press note the songs disturbing arrangement and obvious mainstream Nin-fluence ("their spasming thrash is even more effective for being bracketed by the more ominous discordant bleepery of Encryption," Grooves mag No. 9).

Despite inheriting the controversy that comes with artist exposure, Encryption self released Glora Sin independently in 2003, taking the creation to the next level with a ferocious album. The explosive line up of tracks set the stage for more aggressive Encryption live shows then ever before through 2005, resulting in an aggravated physical delivery of both neo-tribal performance art and extreme music that left a profound impact on all in attendance, and evoked the timeless and warlike confusion that is the subconscious of a wounded city.
