Belphegor comes from the biblical name Baal-Peor, who is the God of the
Moabites. The story is that when Israel owned the northeast corner of
the plains of Moab, the Israelites would have illicit relations with the
Moabite women and would sacrifice them to their god. Moses punished by
death the Israelites who had sacrificed to Baal-Peor. The slaughter
amounted to 24,000 deaths.
Belphegor was founded as Betrayer in 1991 by vocalist and bassist Maxx, guitarists Helmuth and Sigurd, and drummer Chris. The band released their first demo Kruzifixion in April 1991, and Unborn Blood later on. After adopting the name Belphegor in 1993, they released another demo, Bloodbath in Paradise
on Maxi-CD format. At somepoint before or after the release of this
demo, Maxx departed from the band, resulting in Helmuth assuming his
role as both vocalist and guitarist of Belphegor since. In between 1993
and 1996 session member A-X performed bass, after which bassist Mario
"Marius" Klausner joined the band as a full-time member.
The band was briefly signed to Perverted Taste Records, the label on which the demo Obscure and Deep was released in 1994. This release featured a cover of the Black Sabbath song "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". Their first album, The Last Supper,
was released by Lethal Records in January 1995. At this time the band's
logo was also redesigned to include two inverted crosses surrounded by
blood.
The band was on hold after their 2011 South American tour until May 2012 due to Hel "Helmuth" Lehner going through a serious and difficult operation after being infected with typhoid fever.
