When you think PBS, you think Deicide right? Of course not. Who the fuck would think that. Though somehow, the pre-Deicide band Amon made it onto a PBS fundraiser in 1988 and we have footage thanks to YouTuber Steve19891. The whole thing is just too funny, from the friendly the host and light banter beforehand to Amon launching into "Sacrificial Suicide" and PBS just sorta… being cool with it. Or at least not shutting the whole thing down.
The video features the original Deicide lineup of Steve Asheim, brothers Brian and Eric Hoffman, and frontman Glen Benton. You can catch modern Deicide playing their entire 1992 album Legion at one of the dates below, hopefully all of which will be introduced by the PBS guy.
