Deluge is an Adelaide band that began life in 1996 with thrashy, Pantera overtones. Over time the sound developed toward a harsh, symphonic black metal style and the line-up featured Matt (guitar), Pikl, Adam Allen (bass), Sheehan and Jason van den Dreisen (guitar). This line-up supported Impaled Nazarene in July 1999 and issued a debut CD that was somewhat messy in terms of arrangement and sound but showed potential nonetheless. Pahl Hodgson replaced Allen in 2001 and for a time Deluge led something of a transitory existence while individual members worked with other projects including Oni (Hodgson) and Slaughter Thou (Pikl and Sheehan). Hodgson, Matt and van den Dreisen had all left the band by early 2002; by late in the year the band's line-up was as above. Deluge recorded a second album in late 2003.
