Devastations were an indie rock band from Melbourne, Australia, they were active from 2002 to 2010. The band's solemn lamentations often earned comparisons to artists such as Nick Cave and Tindersticks.
The band was founded in 2002 by Tom Carlyon, Hugo Cran and Conrad Standish after the end of their former band Luxedo.[ Allmusic biography, Mackenzie Wilson] Originally called The Devastations to mimic the style of bands such as The Temptations, "The" was later dropped.
