Taradactyl can only be described as innovative both in their sound and in their onstage persona. The members of Taradactyl wear masks to disguise their true identities demolishing the audience's ingrained perceptions getting them onto the dance floor with the heaviest of dance beats.



Their music is a mixture of traditional rock instrumentation(guitars and bass) with synthesizer sounds that verge into the shoegaze or noise pop genres, but the heavy laden drum tracks with varying guitar to synth ratios makes the overall feel danceable. The robotic sound of the vocoder adds a distinctive characteristic matching them even more closely with their otherworldly persona.



Their self-produced album called THE ONLY WAY OUT stokes controversy with the choice spoken word samples from B-movies with tracks that evoke a punk-rock attitude like "Nobody's British Anymore" and "Your Scene Is Sad."



Taradactyl is within the ranks of the avant-garde groups such as Trans Am, Black Moth Super Rainbow and Daft Punk. They have opened for national acts, My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Hollywood Undead.
