Nao Lewandowski states, "When the End Began is nothing short of spectacular and fans would expect nothing less from the band that has forged such a unique path in the music industry."[1]

Caleb Newton writes, "In short, their work on their newest record never falls flat or leaves holes."[2] Ali Cooper describes, "Audibly inspired by the harsh realities of the world in 2018, When The End Began is a dominating and genuine interpretation of where metalcore should be now, on the SILENT PLANET."[3]

Ed Ford says of the album, "every note, beat, lyric and vocal is thought through and blended with differing genres of Metal to create something individual and rather good."[4] Kel Burch writes, "Atmospherically huge and creatively impressive, the album reinforces Silent Planet’s lofty position of being a respected and innovative voice in metalcore."[5]
