Revulsed is an Australian death metal band that was founded in 2010.[1] Revulsed's debut album Infernal Atrocity was featured on No Clean Singing and Trevor Strnad of the Black Dahlia Murder's best albums of 2015 lists.[2][3]

History

After the demise of the Christian doom metal band Paramaecium (later inExordium), Jayson Sherlock and Sheldon D'Costa formed Revulsed in 2010. The band wrote their debut album for five years with Justin "Yowie" Smith formerly of fellow Australian Christian death metal band, Metanoia, still in search for a vocalist.[4] For a brief time they had Peter Ball of Those Who Endure as their vocalist;[4] it was not a good fit and Ball left. He was replaced by Konstantin Lühring of Defeated Sanity and they finished recording their debut album.[5]

In October 2015 Infernal Atrocity was released via Permeated Records.[6] Sherlock felt that "I always wanted to outdo those earlier albums of mine in terms of speed and overall brutality."[5] Belgian music critic Wouter Roemers described it as "one of the better contemporary death metal albums... bland title notwithstanding, is traditional in spirit and approach, but contemporary and cutting-edge on all other fronts."[7] Czech reviewer Prepil rated it as 8 out of 10 and explained "A jsem moc rád, že jsem díky náhodě na tuhle kapelu narazil a mám za to, že si určitě zaslouží i vaši pozornost... představuje album plné brutálního a přitom dynamického death metalu, jenž baví i při neustálém přehrávání."[8] (English: "And I'm glad I by chance stumbled on this band, and I think that certainly deserves your attention... [It's] full of brutal, yet dynamic Death Metal, which entertains even during continuous playback.") Daniel F of Whiskey Soda noticed it is "ein musikalisch aussergewöhnlich vielseitiges, extrem hartes und inhaltlich erfreulich tiefgründiges Album."[9] (English: "a musically extraordinarily versatile, extremely hard and content-wise enjoyably profound album.")

Mark Smith joined the band as their bass player after the recording of the album.[7] Lühring left the band as he was unable to play locally. Damien Mirklis joined in January 2016 at the time of the announcement of Lühring's leaving.[10]

We at Revulsed would [like] to make the following announcement. But before we do... we wanna say hooking up with that monster that is Konni Lühring, chatting with him, getting to know him and having him record his guttural sickness on Infernal Atrocity has been nothing short of the dream come true and we are eternally grateful for that. However due to the distance that separates us, it was always going to be impossible to have him play regular local shows with us. We all knew this going in, heartbreaking as it was. Which brings us to this exciting new chapter in the Revulsed chronicles. We proudly wanna take this opportunity to welcome Mr. Damien Mirklis as the permanent new vocalist for Revulsed. Damien's vocals are truly of the sickest variety and are a perfect fit for us and not only that, he is the nicest bloke around! We wanna thank Konni for everything he has done for Revulsed (which is A LOT) and wish him all the very best for his future endeavors, especially with the mighty DESPONDENCY! And just to let you know if the opportunity arises for Revulsed to play in Europe, Konni WILL be behind the mic, (with Damien's blessing of course) with Damien coming in to join in on the title track. Thanks for reading! Welcome DAMO! \m/

The band planned on doing international shows in 2016.[4] The band started to work on a second album that year with Mirklis and Smith being involved this time around.[11] In 2017, the band released a live album, the first release to feature Mirklis and Smith, titled Live Atrocity – The Inception of Sufferance.[12] In 2020, the band released their debut single, off their upcoming sophomore album, titled "Nefarious Devourment".[13] On November 20, 2023, the band announced the departure of Smith and D'Costa, thanking them for their contributions and D'Costa for assisting with the sophomore album.[14] On December 15, 2023, the band released their sophomore album, Cerebral Contamination through Everlasting Spew Records.[15][16]
