DEVIANT was formed in early 2002 by Johan, EB and Magnus in Uppsala, Sweden. The local madman Alx joined the band to do the vokills and a bassplayer joined shortly before being 'lifted from duties'. Some live shows were executed before the debut demo was recorded in August of 2003. The debut demo, simply entitled Deviant was unleashed in November 2003 and led to a deal with the Italian label The Spew Records in early 2004. During 2004, the band spent the first half of the year playing shows and planning the debut album. Erik joined on bass in January. The second half of the year was spent writing material for what was to become Larvaeon. Erik left the band in October. The debut album, Larvaeon, was recorded during December and early January '04/'05 in EAR Studios (where also the demo was recorded). Fredrik filled in on the bass spot after the recording and was publicly announced in March of '05. Larvaeon, heavily delayed, was released in August 2005. However, gathering circumstances generated an anti-climax upon the album's release and nothing much was heard from DEVIANT until late 2006 when a new studio session generated the Apathyphus 3" MCD. With the MCD freshly recorded DEVIANT held a night of frenzy in hometown Uppsala before impending hibernation. Apathyphus, originally meant to be a promo-release, was released in the summer of 2007 with uncertain seas ahead.
