The Aftermath

by Dystopia

The Aftermath cover art

Functioning as a massive compilation of EP and split releases tracked late in the decade, this album documents the band perfecting their venomous sludge-crust crossover. The music is characterized by painfully slow, detuned doom riffs that violently erupt into frantic D-beat hardcore. Filled with incredibly bleak lyrical content and cynical socio-political sampling, it remains a definitive release of the 90s crust punk underground.
