   About The Ta Ta Destroyers (now on itunes and amazon!!)

The Ta Ta Destroyers acquired their name from a night of inebriated conversation and laughs. What was muttered by a band-mate that was supposed to be the “Cha Cha,” came out as the “Ta Ta,” leading to the destruction of the dance name, ensuing in the band’s title, The Ta Ta Destroyers. This band from Houma, Louisiana got together in 2007, and has continued to play shows in this area and along the Gulf Coast states.

The Ta Ta Destroyers transcends any one category of music. Instead, they traverse various genres of music from reggae, rock, ska, punk, indie, and some funk. This eclectic mix of genres produces noticeable sounds influenced by Sublime, Matisyahu, Bob Marley, Mars Volta, Darkest Hour, and Rage Against the Machine. Their lyrics are inspired largely by video games, sex, and zombies, which denotes the title of their EP, “Zombies Ate my Neighbors,” released in 2007. They have also just finished recording their first full-length album, “Rigamortus Shuffle,” due out in the summer of 2008. They are also set to record a music video for the single, “Death Becomes Her” later this year.

Their performances are not to be missed. The guys jam on stage like they’ve been doing it for years, and it doesn’t matter if the crowd is 10 or 100, they deliver every time. The audience is always clearly entrenched in their music, dancing from the moment the music begins, and they don’t stop even after the guys stop playing. Check out their scheduled performance on Myspace.com.

Immediate career goals for the group include booking tours along the west and east coast, and having their music heard by the masses. The band seems to be off to a momentous start, as this young band with members ranging in age from 19 to 24, has had coverage in magazines, newspapers, and on websites. They have also had their single, “Only the Slow Die Young” featured in the “Viva La Punk Vol. 1” compilation CD. They have also been played on local radio stations, and perform at music festivals.

The Shit People Say..


I say this with a fair amount of respect — I am a huge Sublime fan, so to be compared to them is an honor. “The Rigor Mortis Shuffle” is good stuff, bordering on great at times. I’ll go out on a limb and say the title track (11) and track 10, “Bluestrain”, are ready for airplay. The sound is like a taste of Rob Zombie’s love for scary-movie sound bites, sprinkled over a solid ska-punk/rock/reggae foundation. That’s right, one thing I love about this album is the level of diversity presented between tracks, an impressive task considering the age of the musicians. In fact, they had only played off and on for two years before recording this, their first of what they hope to be many.

CD Review by Houmatoday.com

The Ta Ta Destroyers have taken this sound and have done a very good job making their first album quite entertaining.
The title track "The Rigor Mortis Shuffle" plays out like pure, hard-hitting punk rock with elements of brass and bouncing rhythm and vocals. Dupre said the idea behind the song came from imagining a dead man rising from the grave and cutting loose on the dance floor. "If a zombie were to get up and start dancing, it would move all stiff from the rigor mortis. It would sort of shuffle," he said. This song really gets the blood flowing, whether you are alive or dead.

CD Review by Nicholls Worth

The Ta Ta Destroyers have great bass lines and amazing guitars like crazy. They sound a good bit like Sublime in alot of there songs, but I wouldnt compare them too much to anything. Mainly just fun loving reggae about zombies.
