My first time in this store was this summer and I was positively overwhelmed by the choices of Records. It looked to me like they catered heavily towards Punk, Metal, Alternative Records but have a small mix of other genres as well. Very clean and helpful staff.

Sick record store with amazing merch and zines. Got a sick stash of late 90s/early 2000s Maximum Rock n Roll issues. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Boston!

My favorite store in New England Period.Friendly staff. You can stand there and shop in a comfortable environment even if its by appointment only. My home away from home. Every single time I walk into their establishment I feel like a teenager again.

This place is really great and Im glad underground record stores like these are still active and popular these days. We got some records and CDs from there of a mix of old and new music. It even has music for non metalheads so dont let the name of the place scare you off if youre into indie, oldies, or hip hop!

One of the best locations in the greater Boston area to shop for vinyl. They have a very large selection of punk, hardcore, and metal, which is always stocked with new and old releases. Theres also a lot of other genres as well, including indie, blues, jazz, etc. An absolute stop for any vinyl enthusiast when in Harvard Sq.

If youre into punk, metal, hardcore, then this is the shop for you. This is one of the best spots to pick up vinyls, and its amazing the selection they managed to fit in the space they have. Always have to watch my wallet in here, because its easy to want to buy everything!

One of my favourite punk shops for sure. Its easy to find what youre looking for here, because everything is sorted alphabetically and by genre. The prices are good and the shop looks clean (especially by punk standards). If youre looking for punk, hardcore or metal, this is the place to go. I believe they also have some classic rock here too. Their online shop is also very good, I never had any problems ordering vinyl overseas from Armageddon. Top rating!

I had some friends down from out of state and out of the country who are fellow record collectors. We were all pleased at the selection, the set up {well organized}, the selection of metal & punk and a professional/helpful owner. If you are a new or longtime vinyl collector you should definitely stop in Armageddon. You will be very pleased that you did. I am very thankful that we have such an superb local record shop.

A great place to visit while youre in the Harvard or cambridge area. Its one of the few places that allow you to enter for free. Its not big probably the size of 2 classrooms but its packed with interesting instruments that have defined the knowledge we now take for granted.

Ive been going here for about 6 months now, and have never been upset coming out of the basement. The staff is really helpful, and will always treat you nicely. The collection of metal and punk is amazing, and has made me find lots of great music. If you ever get a chance to stop by here, do it! (Although dont do what I did and get addicted to this place.) 11/10!!!

Fantastic music selection. Tons of metal, although mostly rock oriented. Jazz and such too. Also supports noise music somewhat. Unfortunately lacking on hip-hop sometimes and more modern iazz records. Very punk rock.

Don’t let the sabbath the doom the sludge the grind nor the spooky monotone riffs and raff or the spooky corpse paint scare u. You can totes spend hours avoiding Halloween and Satan and stoner heavy maaaan and still have loads of records in your bag when you leave. This niche apocalypse doomsday dive is not corpse painted into a corner.

The real selection of vinyl here is punk and metal, but if youre into indie, theyve got that, too. A decent CD selection, too.
