Since their debut album in 1990, Deicide has released twelve studio albums, one live album, two compilation albums and two live DVDs.

They also hold the world record for the longest heavy metal concert after playing for five hours and 1 minute in Bulgaria in 2008. They also have been known for their slogan "Death to false metal".
