“…This is excellent all the way through. I’d highly advise this to anyone and everyone who’s into blakk metal, any black metal at all. This album has a great 'flow' to it. Very easy to listen to all the way through, no trax to skip.” 10/10 – Metalwhore
“…Yet, in the end, Excessum have more than doubly proved their worth. Through amazing guitar-work, a tremendous vocal performance, and the song structures to back it up, Sweden’s Excessum have truly released one of the greatest, and most matured debut albums I have ever had the pleasure of hearing." 9/10 – Lunar Hypnosis
“…EXCESSUM of Sweden are an exception to the rule that black metal is dead. It’s time for a metal resurgence-could this be the next Emperor? "Darkness! Death! Damnation!"- inscribed in the album; depressing, dark, true black metal! […] Dramatic harmonization, musical know-how and pure love of the craft make for one awesome album, and EXCESSUM have created a masterpiece." 9/10 - Nocturnall Hall
"...On Death Redemption, the stand-out factors include the scorching guitar work that has many fine barraging riffs and the frightening vocals that have such a great depth to them that they cannot be ignored. […] Clearly, with Death Redemption, Excessum have the goods to keep up with the heavy weights of their frozen Scandinavian colleagues..."4/5 - Pivotal Rage
"…This is utterly bleak and dark black metal, not a cheerful note on here. And while there are so many bands out there that are trying to do the Watain, Dissection thing there are not many that succeed at it, and even less that nails it.[…] The grim, monotonous chants supplement the satanic lyrics perfectly, and combined with the fast-paced drumming and slick riffs it lays to waste the listeners mind.” 8/10 – My Last Chapter
"...Raw, gritty, brutal and nasty. Since I'm discussing black metal of ye old school variety, those are all compliments. Employing a dark and sickly melodic mien surrounded by relentlessly forward moving speed demon black metal, Excessum is harsh, fast and waaay cool. [...] Abrasive and to be embraced, Excessum's black metal sound is almost exactly the sort of sound a black metal CD should have. I've got nothing against the new school stuff but for me, this is black metal." - FishComCollective.net

Ja, no rest for the wicked. Om allt följer tidsplanen har jag 3 album släpp till hösten, he he. Men alla band låter ju ganska olika så det passar mig bra.
Hail Satan. I spent all that time listening to all the songs. Must say, the music shares a lot of meaningful messages for what true black metal should really be all about.
oh i am listening to excessum every minute. now my ears are bleeding :((( and my eyes are hurting because of looking at your wonderful and SEXY pictures all the time.
Ave EXCESSUM!!! "Bleed Eternally"... vilken jäklans sjukt fin låt, den kastar mig tillbaka till "back in the true days"... Tack som faaan för requesten!!! ...in the soil lies the truth... Hare!!!
Haha! det var de jävligaste. Fasen jag väntar ju otåligt på en tröj jävel! Jadu, Tenebra Perpetua kommer släppas runt juni på SPR på CD. Sen OM vi hinner, så skall vi försöka få upp ett 30-40 tal T-shirts till släppet av EPn.
Sen mot hösten skall vi försöka få ihop splitten med Nekrokult.
Sen så skriver vi ju även på material till fullängdaren.
