The band was formed in Florida in 1987, first playing under the name Amon. During this time they released two demos: Feasting the Beast (1987) and Sacrificial (1989). In 1989 the band's name was changed to Deicide and they released their debut, self-titled album.
The band line up, which has not changed since the band began, is: Glen Benton on bass, brothers Eric and Brian Hoffman on guitars, and Steve Asheim on drums.
