Video Premiere: Aftermath – ‘Gaslight’

Don’t even think about fucking with Aftermath‘s extreme metal bonafides. The Chicago thrashers formed back in 1985, cranking out numerous demos before releasing their 1994 debut, the progressive tech-thrash masterpiece Eyes of Tomorrow to an underground metal scene that had long abandoned thrash in favor of black and death metal. Another industry demo followed in 1996 and a brief name change before 15 years of hibernation. After reuniting in 2014, the band released their looooooong awaited second album, There Is Something Wrong, earlier this year. And today, we’re proud to present the fourth official video from the record in the form of “Gaslight.” According to frontman Kyriakos “Charlie” Tsiolis, the song and video are integral parts of the greater message behind this ambitious concept album.

“The song is about waking up and having an open-mind in order to avoid the elite’s attempt to gaslight you,” says Tsiolis. “It tells the real rulers of the world we are on to their ways and we will destroy them and their symbols.”
