The album received positive reviews from critics. Already Heard rated the album 3.5 out of 5 and: "What Make Them Suffer have crafted here is an album that's not afraid to rattle the cage and shake things up a bit. Much like the phoenix must burn out to be born again, the band have moved away from everything they once knew and come out on top. Reinvigorated and more inspired than ever before, this feels like a new beginning. The potential going forward is infinite and that is a very exciting position to be in indeed." [1] Distorted Sound scored the album 8 out of 10 and said: "Simply put, Worlds Apart is not a record for deathcore or death metal fans, necessarily. However, fans of the band and of Ether will not be disappointed, as MAKE THEM SUFFER have crafted a solid and consistent record that certainly represents a move in an exciting direction for the band." [5]
Louder Sound gave the album a positive review and stated: "Granted, Worlds Apart is not the frostbitten maelstrom on which MTS established themselves, but any diehards blanching at this record's euphoric eclecticism will certainly find solace among the intermittent flurries of blastbeats and enamel-peeling screams elsewhere. These guys are suffering for their art successfully." [7] New Noise gave the album 4.5 out of 5 and stated: "With Worlds Apart, Make Them Suffer are clearly on another level." [8] Wall of Sound gave the album a score 7/10 and saying: "It's hard to criticise a band for wanting to move forward in their craft. Worlds Apart is without doubt another stepping stone for MTS moving forward and they have unearthed a gem in the creative talents of Booka Nile. The positives far outweight the negatives for this record and I'm more than interested to see what lies ahead for MTS once they work and tour together with this new line up." [9]

Symphonic metal is a cross-generic style designation for the symphonic subsets of heavy metal music subgenres. It is used to denote any metal band that makes use of symphonic or orchestral elements. The style features the heavy drums and guitars of metal with different elements of orchestral classical music, such as symphonic instruments, choirs and sometimes a full orchestra, or just keyboard orchestration.
Deathcore is an extreme metal subgenre that combines death metal with metalcore. The genre consists of death metal guitar riffs, blast beats, and metalcore breakdowns. While there are some precursors to the concept of death metal fused with metalcore/hardcore elements seen in the 1990s, deathcore itself emerged in the early 2000s and gained prominence beginning in the mid-2000s within the southwestern United States, especially Arizona and inland southern California, which are home to many notable bands and various festivals.
