Distorted Sound9/10[6]

End of Existence received generally positive reviews from critics. Dom Lawson from Blabbermouth.net gave the album 7.5 out of 10 and said: "As ever, if the idea of metal mixed with EDM gives you violent facial tics and a sense of impending doom, End of Existence makes no attempt to make amends or win you over. And nor should it. The Browning have spent a decade pursuing an eccentric and polarizing path, and they still sound like a flash of inspiration brought to life."[5]

Distorted Sound scored the album 9 out of 10 and said: "There is barely a downside to End of Existence, only the mere issue that every progressive record faces: repetition. However, because of McBee's expert use of production, this is avoided for the most part. This record truly highlights McBee's talent across the board."[6]
