Just had to laugh about the press coverage that Deicide got in my local Press. Funny how they mention all the "evil" stuff surrounding Deicide and the bit about Glen killing himself. Oh yeah, we are all Devil Worshippers, damn, some of us are actually music fans as well and we like the music.

MK CLUB TO STAGE DEVIL WORSHIP GIG
We're expecting a protest from a few God-botherers outside, HUNDREDS of devil worshippers are descending upon Milton Keynes for a festival of Satanic music.
The event is being opposed by senior church figures in the city.
The Pitz nightspot in Woughton will host the event on Wednesday, October 26.
Notorious American extreme death metal pioneers Deicide will headline the gig.
The band have Satanic leanings and have been a constant thorn in the side of various American Christian faiths.
Pitz club promoter Paul Rivers told mk news: "Lead singer Glen Benton even has an inverted cross burnt into his forehead which is hilarious I think.
"He threatened he would kill himself at 33 the same age as Christ was when he died. Glen's now 39. And he called his son Damien after The Omen antichrist character.
"It'll be a rather controversial show and will ruffle a few feathers. We're expecting a protest from a few God-botherers outside."
Deicide's songs include Bastard Of Christ, When Heaven Burns, Go Now Your Lord Is Dead, F*** Your God and Conquered By Sodom.
Support bands will be Visceral Bleeding and Wykked Witch.
Tickets are 12 and doors open at 7.30pm.
Stony Stratford-based evangelist Pastor Robert Lightowler said: "Jesus said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'"
Rev Kevin McGarahan, Woolstones' vicar, was unavailable for comment, but told mk news in 2003 when a Satanic festival later cancelled was planned for The Sanctuary: "Anything that glorifies the power of evil in this city is doing an injustice to the power of God.
"There's enough darkness, despair, doubt and despondency. By staging such a festival in Milton Keynes, we are sending out the wrong message. We should be shining a light from here, not sending out darkness."
