Disembowelment was an Australian metal band active from 1989 to 1994. The group specialized in death-doom metal, blending the aggression of death metal with the slower, heavier aesthetics of doom metal. Operating during the formative years of the death-doom subgenre, Disembowelment developed a distinctive sound that helped define the emerging style within Australia's metal underground. The band's tenure, though relatively brief, established them as notable contributors to the evolution of extreme metal during the early 1990s.
