An inspired and innovative death metal band from Perth, iNFeCTeD was one of the stand-out entries in the Australian metal field in the first half of the 1990s. With a sound rivalling that of '''Godflesh''' and early '''Fear Factory''', iNFeCTeD's first album was a dark and angry volume. The second outing saw the introduction of Bjorg Saetre on keyboards in a bid to develop the more Gothic aspects of the music, but while the material on ''CoNTRoL'' was exceptional, woeful production and an inability to tour regularly due to the distance from the east coast scene meant it failed and the band folded in mid 1996. A sad loss. Campbell later formed '''Tyrant''' and Kapiteyn is now with [[The Devil Rides Out]] after a few years with '''HeadShot'''.  
iNFeCTeD was formed in Perth in 1990. Early releases focused on a death metal style but when Bjorg Saetre was added the band began exploring more industrial aspects. In 1996 iNFeCTed appeared at the Big Day Out in Perth but split up later that year.  


In July 2003, iNFeCTeD regrouped in the studio to record an EP, 'Straight White God'. The reunion was not sustained beyond this release. The EP is only available as a download from the iNFeCTeD website.
In July 2003, iNFeCTeD regrouped in the studio with Robert Thorpe on keys to record an EP, ''Straight White God''. The reunion was not sustained beyond this release. The group then reformed for a show in May 2008. ''crawlspace'' was remastered and re-mixed for release in October 2009 and the band played one show to launch it. Since then iNFeCTeD has reformed several times, most recently in 2020.
