Abominator is an Australian black/death metal band formed in Melbourne, Australia 1994. Their lyrics commonly deal with war and spirituality. They have been compared to Angelcorpse and Morbid Angel.

Abominator was formed in Melbourne, 1994 by Andrew Undertaker and Chris Volcano (formerly of Destroyer 666) and self-released their first demo, Barbarian War Worship in May 1995, which featured six tracks. It was later rereleased as a split with Swedish death metal band Mornaland. In late 1995, Dave Deathsaw (guitars) and Gary Gestapo (Bass) were added to the lineup and performed numerous gigs, including with cult black metal band Bestial Warlust. The vocalist for Bestial Warlust, Damon Bloodstorm (bass, vocals) joined Abominator about this time, and Gary Gestapo was dismissed.

In 1997 they recorded their next release, another demo titled The Conquerer Possessed and Dave Deathsaw departed the next year. Abominator achieved a major success in the US, signing a deal with Necropolis Records. They released Damnations Prophecy, and recorded a track for Necropolis' 1999 compilation album, Thrashing Holocaust. Around 2000, they began writing and recording their next album, Subersives for Lucifer, but Necropolis decided that they no longer wished to support Abominator and rendered their contract void. However, Abominator managed to secure a contract with Osmose Records shortly after, and Subversives for Lucifer was released under Osmose. After the release of this album Damon Bloodstorm departed.

In early 2001, Max Krieg joined the band on vocals. They appeared in Osmose Records' "World
