Deviated Instinct, formed in 1984, was a pioneering British crust punk / death metal band. Their first EP, Welcome to the Orgy, was released by Peaceville Records, which released the majority of their albums. The band disbanded in 1991: Snapa and Mid are currently involved with Bait, and Leggo was involved with Filthkick who did a split with the crustgrind pioneers Extreme Noise Terror. The band reunited in late 2007.
