Revulsed


Revulsed is a technical/brutal death metal band that originated in Australia in 2010. Revulsed was featured on No Clean Singing's list at No. 17 and on Trevor Strnad of the Black Dahlia Murder's at No. 8 out of 100.

History

After the demise of the Christian doom metal band Paramaecium, 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. For a brief time they had Peter Ball of Those Who Endure as their vocalist; 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.
In October 2015 Infernal Atrocity was released via Permeated Records. Sherlock felt that "I always wanted to outdo those earlier albums of mine in terms of speed and overall brutality." 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." 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." Daniel F of Whiskey Soda noticed it is "ein musikalisch aussergewöhnlich vielseitiges, extrem hartes und inhaltlich erfreulich tiefgründiges Album."
Mark Smith joined the band as their bass player after the recording of the album. 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.
The band planned on doing international shows in 2016. The band started to work on a second album that year with Mirklis and Smith being involved this time around. In 2017, the band released a live album, the first release to feature Mirklis and Smith, titled Live Atrocity – The Inception of Sufferance. In 2020, the band released their debut single, off their upcoming sophomore album, titled "Nefarious Devourment".
