AMON was established in 1987 by siblings Eric Hoffmann (guitar) and Brian Hoffman (guitar), who later transformed into Deicide. Following their departure from Deicide in 2004, the Hoffman brothers revived Amon. "Liar in Wait" showcased the strength and darkness of authentic underground Florida satanic death metal. When questioned about Amon's musical direction, Eric mentioned, "[The music's] a little bit more technical than the Deicide stuff. It's not too intricate, so it's still catchy at the same time. You'll still have a couple of classic Deicide beginnings, and then it'll go into some killer technical, in-your-face shit." 12"LP format.
