Formed in 1987 by drummer Steve Asheim and guitarist brothers Eric and Brian Hoffman as “Carnage”, then hiring bassist/vocalist Glen Benton and becoming “Amon”. They would later change the band name to Deicide in 1989. The band rose to mainstream success in 1992 with their second album Legion,[1] and is credited as the second best-selling death metal band of the Soundscan Era, after Cannibal Corpse. Deicide is known for their lyrics, which cover topics such as Satanism, anti-Christianity and blasphemy. Their lyrics have resulted in bans, lawsuits and criticism from religious groups and the public.
