Guitarist, producer and songwriter René Berthiaume considers Armageddon a heavier effort with darker lyrics than previous Equilibrium albums.

Berthiaume was initially unsure about working on "Born to Be Epic", but his girlfriend convinced him to do so and it ended up being a band favorite.

It features 2009 recordings of some of the instruments, including some flutes performed by an Ecuadorian street musician the band had met in Munich.

"Eternal Destination" reflects on how mankind has ruined Earth, the environment, the animals and itself in the past decades, but the track also shows a glimmer of hope.

It also marks vocalist Robert Dahn's daughter Charly second vocal performance in an Equilibrium album.
