Teratogen was founded in Columbus by Daniel Martinson, Luke Bowers, and Chris Morris. Aimless basement jams turned to fully formed songs, and they recruited friends Alex Pisani and Alan Gabrenya to round out the band's sound and help finish their first album, Terrible Cloud (released in January 2020). Their electic sound is informed by their varied interests: death metal, David Lynch, gardening, the Beatles. Their second album will be released in late 2022/early 2023.
