Like many of their peers, the band experimented with instrumental passages, introspective lyrics, and ultrasonic guitar effects, along with folk, jazz and classical influences.

[4] After a European tour in the summer of 1971, White left the band, and the remaining trio of Pugh, Bradley and Cennamo began recording a new album.

A memorial concert took place at London's Marquee Club on 14 March that year, with appearances by fellow bands Atomic Rooster, Beggars Opera, If, and Gringo.

In 1974, two years after drummer Bradley's death, Keith Relf, who had helped produce Speech, sought Cennamo and Pugh out to form a band in California.

[6] Pugh and Caldwell tried to reassemble Armageddon in the early 1980s, producing a number of songs for a second LP for Capitol Records with singer Jeff Fenholt (of Jesus Christ Superstar), and were close to signing contract – but the project never got past the demo/rehearsal stage.

Pugh left the music business but stayed in California, eventually emerging from retirement to sit in with US-based rock and roll band 7th Order in 2002–2003.

[8] After leaving Steamhammer, White recorded a solo album, Open Door, which was released in 1975[9] – he later emigrated to the US (specifically Oregon), where he worked as a truck driver until passing away in 1995 (cancer).
