Aftermath Goes Back To The Future! ​      

Chicago metal legends Aftermath are celebrating 40 years of musical chaos with a powerful year-end milestone: the release of their newly re-recorded track “Sentenced to Death (They Die You Die)” and brand-new lyric video, arriving through TLGZOID, distributed by Virgin Music Group.

"Sentenced to Death" was written in 1985 and appeared on Aftermath’s 1986 demo. Back then the band recorded it live in one take on two tracks. It was never meant for anyone else to hear. They hated the production, but loved the song. Fast forward to 2025 and as part of their 40th Anniversary they decided to record the track properly. What you get now is "Sentenced to Death (They Die You Die)": an amazing song that brings the listener back to the early days of thrash, but with a powerful production recorded with all four members in the studio together like the old days.

The band shares, "It took 39 years to record it the right way, and we are so happy to finally get it the way we always imagined it should be, that we decided to include it on our upcoming album."

Currently the band is in the studio putting the finishing touches on their 4th studio album.

The band states, "We are excited to be back in the studio. We can’t wait for everyone to hear this album. It’s heavy, it’s catchy, and in typical Aftermath fashion it sounds totally different from our previous albums."

The new album is being recorded at Electrowerks Recording, with engineering and mixing by Chuck Macak. Additional details, including the album title, tracklist, and release date, will be announced in the coming months.
