Biography

Secret Archives of the Vatican have been making their own distinctive brand of what they call ‘transglobal breakbeat dub science’ for a few years now, more recently introducing dubstep and glitchy electronica influences to the mix. They are a small collective, based across the UK but with main recording facilities in Croydon, South London. They’ve played live at various festivals and have contributed tracks to several compilations worldwide. They released two CD albums, Reformation (1998) and Babylon Halt (2008) and one download only album, Remembering Machine (2009). They then released three free EPs, The Glidepath EP, Wisdom Truth and Dreams and Visions in 2010 and released a full length download only album, Barbary Lion, in the summer of 2011. In 2012, they released the cinematic, dubstep-inflected album War on Terra. All of their music is available free (or name-your-own-price) from Bandcamp: http://secretarchivesofthevatican.bandcamp.com/
