Deicide is the killing of a god: either the God of a monotheistic religion, or one of the gods of a polytheistic religion.
Well, this is the pinnacle of Satanic Death Metal. This album stands alone atop the pedestal of pure EviL. What more could be said that hasn’t been said already. Deicide features the most diabolic and evil musician in the music recording business. I’m talking of course about Glen Benton, the heavily anti-Christian bassist/vocalist of Deicide.(Easily identifiable as the one with the inverted cross branded into his forehead!)
Each song is jammed packed with Glen’s unique brand of lyrics many of which suggest the killing of Christians and desecration of everything religious. The music on the album is raw, fast, heavy, evil and last but not least, superb. One aspect of the album worth noting is the excellent double-bass drum work by Steve Asheim and the viciously fast guitar work by the brothers Eric and Brian Hoffman.
