Lucifer was founded in Berlin in 2014 by German vocalist Johanna Sadonis following the dissolution of her previous band The Oath, initially delivering a sound rooted heavily in occult doom metal before gradually broadening toward 1970s-influenced heavy rock.

Sadonis remains the sole constant member, with Swedish guitarist Nicke Andersson of The Hellacopters having co-founded and shaped the early sound before departing.
