Lewis Tollani's review praises Armageddon's 1975 self-titled album as a powerful, corrective shake-up to mid-70s rock. It highlights the supergroup lineup led by Keith Relf and the aggressive, proto-metal moments on tracks such as "Buzzard" and the closing suite. The review links the record to later metal vocal styles and notes Relf's tragic death in 1976. Overall the piece frames the album as a brief but influential attempt to redirect rock.
