Deicide is an American death metal band formed in 1987 by bassist and vocalist Glen Benton and drummer Steve Asheim. The band rose to mainstream success in 1992 with their second album Legion, and is credited as the second best-selling death metal band of the Soundscan Era, after Cannibal Corpse.[2] Since their debut album in 1990, Deicide has released eleven studio albums, one live album, two compilation albums and two live DVDs. I

In November 2003, their first two albums, Deicide and Legion, were ranked second and third place respectively in best-selling death metal albums of the Sound Scan era. Deicide is not only known for their music, but for their lyrics, which cover topics such as satanism and anti-religion. Their lyrics have resulted in bans, lawsuits and criticism from religious groups and the public.
Deicide was formed in Tampa, Florida on July 21, 1987, after guitarist Brian Hoffman called Glen Benton, replying to an advertisement the latter had placed in a local music magazine. Hoffman and his brother, along with drummer Steve Asheim, had previously played together as the band “Carnage”, which was in need of a bassist and vocalist. They are influenced by bands such as Destruction, Sodom, Venom, Bathory, Mayhem, Possessed, Death, Autopsy, and Slayer. The band consisted of Benton (bass/vocals), Hoffman, Hoffman’s brother Eric (guitars) and Steve Asheim (drums). Within a month, they had recorded crude Feasting the Beast 8-track demo in Benton’s garage and had started playing the occasional gig in the Tampa area. In 1989, Amon recorded their second demo, Sacrificial, at Morrisound with producer Scott Burns.
