Revulsed is a slam/death metal band that originated in Australia in 2010. Revulsed was featured on No Clean Singing's list at #17 and on Trevor Strnad of The Black Dahlia Murder's at #8 out of 100. The band is heavily considered one of Australia's heaviest bands with their gritty growling and controversial lyrics.

After the demise of the Christian doom metal band, Paramaecium and 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. 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." (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 "eines musikalisch aussergewöhnlich vielseitigen, extrem harten und inhaltlich erfreulich tiefgründigen Albums." (English: "a musical, colorful, varied, extremely hard and content enjoyable profound 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.
