Void Eternal received generally positive reviews from critics. In his review for The Line of Best Fit, Steven Loftin said the album "is a rebirth [of nu-metal]", and Ely King for Distorted Sound said Mulherin has "successfully branched himself into metalcore" and was "very reminiscent of the early to mid-00s era".

Commercial success

On a Twitch stream, Mulherin said the album was not a commercial success. He stated he lost 1.2 million monthly listeners on Spotify after the release of the album and would most likely not release a metal album again due to the lack of commercial success. [9]

Take This to Your Grave is the debut studio album by American rock band Fall Out Boy, released on May 6, 2003, by Fueled by Ramen. When the band was signed to Island Records, the label employed an unusual strategy that allowed them to sign with independent label Fueled by Ramen for their debut and later move to Island for their second album. Sean O'Keefe had helped with the band's demo, and they returned to Smart Studios in Madison, Wisconsin to record the bulk of their first album with him. Living on a stranger's floor for part of the time and running out of money halfway through, the band recorded seven songs in nine days, bringing them together with the additional three from the demo.

Wentz signed the group to his own imprint label, Decaydance, without them having ever performed live. It is the only album released during original bassist Brent Wilson's time in the band, but the exact nature of his involvement in the writing and recording process became a source of contention upon his dismissal from the group in mid-2006.
