Devilish Presley was a British punk rock, gothic rock band from London.

Devilish Presley were a British goth, punk cult band that formed in East London in 2002. They released six albums on their own label November Tenth Records and toured constantly for eleven years building a small but loyal following from the goth, punk and psychobilly scenes in the UK and Europe. In 2004-2005 Devilish Presley were the house band at the London club Dead and Buried, run by DJ Cavey Nik. The band's Pity For Monsters Promotions were responsible for bringing many US and European deathrock bands to the UK for the first time.

2005 saw the release of the Memphisto album . which helped the band widen their appeal a little, playing at many punk and psychobilly gigs. Among bands they supported were The Damned, The Misfits, The Meteors, The Horrorpops, The 5678's, Marky Ramone, Jayne County, The Vibrators. In 2006 they signed to the Wipe Out Music publishing company, (who now publish the drummerless duo Sleaford Mods). The band toured Europe and played in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia (where they were featured on the National Television News), Belfast and on 31 October 2005 in Dublin where they performed at Tower Records and Whelan's (music venue). The single Hammer Horror Glamour (2005 from the Memphisto album) was featured on several cover-mount CDs including Big Cheese magazine (UK) and Zillo (Germany). The Memphisto album became available on iTunes in September 2006. Halloween Queen the follow-up single to Hammer Horror Glamour was made available on iTunes in March 2007 and the band played a 25 date Halloween Queen UK tour - the only one using a live drummer - Ragborn Rosy. After parting company with their drummer the band continued as a two-piece with a drum machine. In August 2007 yet another UK tour began taking in 22 dates. Support slots on this tour included The Meteors, The Peacocks, Demented Are Go, King Kurt, and several dates with Canadian band The Creepshow.
