A music video was made for "Armageddon".
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 falcon on the covers of their albums.

gollark: You can't really see it because it's a still image, but the guardian is frozen in place and can be moved via spatial IO.
gollark: Fear it.
gollark: I think the implications are obvious.
gollark: It also turns out you can put it into spatial IO.
gollark: As a draconic evolution disliker, I like this.
