A music video was made for "Armageddon".
In 2017, Loudwire ranked it as the 19th best power metal album of all time.[1]
Album Concept
The record is themed around a space exploration mission. A team of astronauts visit a new, never before seen planet, and their craft ends up blowing up in the process of reentry into the Earth's atmosphere. The person or thing they are speaking to in 'Armageddon' is often considered by fans to be the eagle that appears on the covers of the majority of their albums.
