Nik Young of Metal Hammer rated the album six out of ten and stated, "Their new release continues along a similar trajectory to 2016's The End, but sees Dan Ford return on bass and introduces new vocalist Tony Evans, who replaces Paul Williams."[5] Kerrang! gave the album a three out of five rating and described it as "an undeniably fantastic-sounding record," opining "The wheel might not have been reinvented here, but it's been given a damn good polishing."[4]

Benjamin Jack of Sputnikmusic assigned it a score of 3.2 out of five, noting that, "musically, Finding Peace doesn't stray far from the band's comfort zone, and it's unlikely to convert skeptics."[6] Distorted Sound, rating the album eight out of ten, praised the album and called it "probably Desolated's best record yet, although we have had The End for about nine years so time will kinda have to tell."[3]
