Melding elements fans of Zao, Carcass, Converge, Poison The Well, Martyr A.D., One King Down, and similar brutalizing acts, VATICAN's Ache Of Eternity was recorded by Kris Hilbert at Legitimate Business (Advent, Torch Runner, Red Death, Joy), mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege (Integrity, Nails, Xibalba) and bears art by Spencer Guerrero and photography by Nathan Fitzgerald. Decibel Magazine offers, "There are a lot of influences at play on Ache Of Eternity-from the chaotic nature of Converge to the bulldozing heaviness of Zao, Martyr A.D. or Hatebreed-making the EP a satisfying listen from the rising hardcore band." Metal Injection calls the EP, "a doozy for anyone that worships Zao, Poison the Well, It Dies Today, etc. Can't deny there is a huge Swedish death metal influence in there, somewhere, either."

Svbterranean reports that the EP, "delivers five tracks of flesh-ripping riffs, bashing grooves and breakdowns galore... Ache Of Eternity sits at the apex of this evolution, offering something that is no doubt familiar, but also dynamic and destructive. If Trustkill and Ferret Music were still operating today, VATICAN would be the type of band they would have bred." Two Guys Metal Reviews states, "Ache Of Eternity is the sort of metallic hardcore record that cracks skulls with its punchy accuracy, tight songwriting and bone breaking breakdowns."
