Cipher was formed in 1996 by long time friends who wanted to bring something new to underground music. As the group developed artistically and politically they reasoned that art can and should have a serious social mission. That mission, coupled with the band's unique blend of diverse musical conventions, create Cipher's signature sound. Elements of hardcore and metal are woven with melodicism and politically radical lyrics to form a provocative, probing treatment of race, gender, and class.
Cipher embraced a DIY work ethic that has led them to self-release many of their earlier recordings and embark on numerous tours of the US. Cipher's latest offering, "Children Of Gods Fire" (Uprising Records 2005), has gained critical acclaim as an unrelenting, neo-revolutionary musical statement.
Currently the band is working on the follow-up to "Children of God's Fire."
Cipher is committed to opening critical spaces in underground music and reawakening the legacy of dissent embedded in every hardcore, punk , or metal riff.
