Chicago metal legends Aftermath have unveiled a new version of their critically praised 2019 concept album with the release of There is Something Wrong – Redacted. This leaner, more direct version of the record features eight songs, omitting the intros, interludes, and outros.
Released 25 years after their groundbreaking debut Eyes of Tomorrow, There is Something Wrong marked Aftermath’s return with a bold and disturbing message—one that challenged listeners to confront uncomfortable truths. The album’s dark themes and intense lyrical content proved polarizing at the time of its release.
There Is Something Wrong is a dark concept album meant to disturb the listener.
“Back in 2019, the lyrics and concept were too much for some listeners, but for some that feeling has changed since Covid. Regardless, we always intended on releasing a version with only the songs,” says the band.
The Redacted edition strips the album down to its core—eight explosive tracks delivered without preamble. It offers a new way to experience the raw energy and pointed social commentary that define There is Something Wrong.
There is Something Wrong – Redacted is available now exclusively on all streaming services.
Currently, the band is in the studio recording their fourth studio album. Aftermath promises to deliver 11 tracks of pure, uncompromising metal.
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.
Aftermath is:
Kyriakos “Charlie” Tsiolis – Vocals
Steve Sacco – Guitar
Ray Schmidt – Drums
George Lagis – Bass
