Cryptacize began across the street from the C&H Sugar Factory in Crockett, CA, where Nedelle (ex-KRS) and Chris Cohen (The Curtains) lived in a tilted apartment. Constant dizziness and the smell of burning sugar became a permanent part of their psyches, and is consequently their biggest influence.
One morning while brushing their teeth, toothpaste running sideways out of their mouths, Nedelle pronounced the word 'Cryptacize' and the house appeared to incline in the opposite direction! Soon after this strange incident, they discovered something even stranger on youtube - a drummer named Michael Carreira, who they sought out and convinced to join their uncanny crusade. The band's debut album, "Dig That Treasure", was released in early 2008 by Asthmatic Kitty Records.
Got to see you guys back in march with Why? in philly. I've gotta say the album tends to get stuck in my cd player for several times through the album. Truly a breath of fresh air! Can't wait to hear the new stuff
