The musical style for this album is straightforward death metal influenced by black metal, but not as fast and intense as the band's later signature sound.[2]
It was re-released by Osmose Productions on 21 April 1995 on CD and 7-inch vinyl limited to 700 hand-numbered copies, again on CD in 1999 with three bonus tracks, and again in 2006 on a 10-inch mLP limited to 500 copies.
Fuck Me Jesus was banned in seven countries following its CD release, due to its controversial title and explicit cover art.[2]
Three songs, "Departure from the Mortals", "The Black..." and "Within the Abyss" were all re-recorded for the band's 1992 debut, Dark Endless.

Musical style
editIn his book Swedish Death Metal, Daniel Ekeroth describes Fuck Me Jesus as "a very death metal–sounding recording with a heavy and fat sound. The song structures are basically death metal as well, combining heavy riffs with hammering two-beats. What makes a difference are some occasional grind parts, melodic guitars, and of course the hellish vocals of Andreas."[1]
