Death metal band Deicide are strongly anti-Christian in their lyrics and themes. Frontman Glen Benton has even burned an inverted crucifix into his forehead and throughout the 1990's promised to commit suicide when he turned 33, the age Jesus is supposed to have died. Predictably, when he reached it in 2000 he didn't kill himself. Summing up their stance on religion, drummer Steve Asheim 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 organised praying, hoping, wishing-type thing on some superior being".
