Deicide has received considerable controversy relating to their albums and lyrics, which include vehement anti-Christian themes.
This was reinforced by frontman Glen Benton branding an inverted cross into his forehead. Drummer Asheim of Deicide said "The whole point of Satanic music is to blaspheme against the church", "I don't believe in or worship a devil. Life is short enough without having to waste it doing this whole organized praying, hoping, wishing-type thing on some superior being".
Ostensibly in order to prove his genuine Satanic nature, Benton claimed in the early 1990s that he would commit suicide at the age of 33. However, he passed that age in 2000 and did not commit suicide.
In 2006, he stated that these statements had been "asinine remarks" and that "only cowards and losers" choose to kill themselves.
