Critical reception
Distorted Sound scored the album 9 out of 10 and said: "Imminence aren't just a band, they're an experience, a feeling, a state of mind. The Black cements their place within the metalcore hierarchy. Expect even bigger things to come."[10] Ghost Cult gave the album a score 9/10 and saying: "With such theatrical innovation that challenges and transcends Metalcore, Imminence have become pioneers of a style that can best be described as Violincore. While each preceding album was a step in the right direction, The Black pulls off just the sound they were always meant to create."[11] Louder Sound gave the album a positive review and stated: "The Swedes' four studio albums so far have seen them tinker with overly polished production and the kind of atmospheric metalcore Architects left behind six years ago (2021's solid, albeit repetitive Heaven in Hiding bore more than a passing resemblance to Sam Carter and co), but with The Black, they've taken a step forward."[12]
