Formed in 2008, Turbo Goth is composed of Sarah Gaugler (on lead vocals) and Paolo Peralta (on guitar/electronic sampler).

Turbo Goth has had numerous performances in the Philippines and at music festivals in Asia, but after their show at South by Southwest in 2014, they decided to relocate, for a broader audience, finding a new home in New York by the end of that year.

The two decided to collaborate when Peralta, then a solo electronic musician, heard Gaugler's voice while she was singing in the car along to her favorite songs.

"Venus Flytrap", the first single from Destroy Us All, received notable airplay on progressive radio stations.

Peralta then lays in basic simple guitar tracks (using a Telecaster) with heavy delays and aggressive ambience.
