Matt Conner states, "Everything Was Sound is a killer metalcore album."[1] Kriston McConnell writes, "Silent Planet have written one of the most brutally honest metalcore albums in years."[5] Lucas Munachen describes, "it's difficult to label Everything Was Sound as anything short of a masterpiece."[2] Michael Weaver believes, "Everything Was Sound is certainly one of this year's best heavy albums."[3] Scott Fryberger says, "The Night God Slept was an intense metalcore album that shot them straight up into the 'best of Solid State' group. 2016 is looking to be another strong year for the band, with Everything Was Sound sounding like the next logical step."[4]
