"One of the first strong albums of 2022... a very solid debut without much in the way of a bad track. While the band tends to stick to a basic formula and not overpopulate the tracks with clean vocals, keyboards, or guest vocals which tends to the be typical melodeath experience these days “Rex Mortem” is full of infectious riffs that will grab listeners and root them in place for the full ride. Definitely, a band to watch for in 2022. 4/5" - Brutalism
"On this album there's a sound that was both impressive technically and a lot of fun. Sure, you're getting technical guitar playing and sinister vocals, but when that neo-classical side of the band hits you can't help but bounce or sway with the melodies." - Metal Injection
"Burned In Effigy gild their aggressive, though catchy, melodic death metal with ornate neoclassical melodies that give their violent proceedings a distinctly regal tint." - Invisible Oranges
"Burned In Effigy, a Neo-classical Melodic Death Metal band from Chicago, weave a sublime meld of classical and progressive elements into their tracks. The result makes their debut full length, Rex Mortem, a stunning and essential listen." - Metal Talk
