Lambgoat bestows this high praise upon the new song: "'End of an Error' tears through its lean two-minute runtime like an Olympic sprinter. Guitars are violent and coarse, yet composed and precise. The rhythm section is like the mechanical rabbit at a dog race coaxing top speeds out of the riffs and melodies, but command supreme power itself – drums stampede through your skull while the bass rattles your spinal column. The vocals top it all off with a searing quality to them, well-enunciated while still matching the chaos of the instrumentation. This is rough, tough mathcore brought up a notch."
Toiling in the Austin scene since 2016 – releasing three EPs and sharpening its craft by way of shows with the likes of Norma Jean and Lorna Shore – Koningsor reached the point of collapse before finding the strength and inspiration to finish the new EP. Drummer Andy Sadler explains: "Josh, Paul, and I all had parents pass away during the recording process. Josh lost his mother, Paul and I both lost our fathers. The album title and all the lyrics are about the struggle that came from the pain and the mix of emotions brought about by their losses."

Death Process was engineered and mixed by Kieran Krebs (Mothman, Televangelist) and mastered by The Dillinger Escape Plan's Kevin Antreassian. The EP sees the band bashing out jagged and exuberant rave-ups in the fashion of early Botch, turbo-boosted with torrents of double bass drumming and fleet-fingered string handling. For all its frantic twists and turns, the songs are anchored by hard metallic grooves and an undercurrent of emotion.
