Release and promotion

On February 24, 2025, Architects released "Everything Ends" as a single from The Sky, The Earth & All Between, accompanied by a visualizer.[1]

An official remix of the song, reworked by drummer Dan Searle,[2] was released on April 27, 2026.[3]

Composition

Paul Brown of Wall of Sound characterised "Everything Ends" as a softer radio-rock song in a "similar vein to Bring Me the Horizon's Medicine".[4] Revolver called the song a "melodic metalcore anthem".[5] Emily Garner of Kerrang! placed the track on the "catchier" and "poppier" end of the spectrum,[6] while Merlin Alderslade of Louder Sound referred to it as "pure post-That's the Spirit pop metal".[7] Ed Walton of Distorted Sound identified it as the album's only poppier song, writing that its guitars give it an anthemic feel while its synthesizers give it a darker tone.[8] God Is in the TV also noted the presence of a keyboard melody throughout the song.[9]

Reception

James Hickie of Kerrang! felt that "Everything Ends" was "a little too familiar".[10] Josh Allen of God Is in the TV characterised the song as a Linkin Park tribute track.[9]
