A few weeks ago I premiered a new Mumakil track here and now the band is streaming another over on our illegitimate brother site CVLT Nation. Both of these tracks are only the beginning of the sheer awesomeness that is Mumakil‘s new album Flies Will Starve. Trust me, you don’t want to pass this album up.
Sometime in between the release of the two new tracks, Mumakil released a new music video for their song “Death From Below” that somehow got skipped over here on American Aftermath. You can stream that below and then go check out “War Therapist” over on CVLT Nation. Continue reading »

If you haven’t gotten into Ventura, California’s P.O.O.R. (or Point Of Our Resistance), you’re missing out on some stunningly awesome grind. These dudes don’t play around when it comes to vicious, powerful grindcore and you shouldn’t be sleeping on them. The band is currently giving their 2012 release Extinction Of Trust for free for 24 hours only. I highly suggest you go snag it right now. If that’s not enough incentive, the album features guest vocals by Exhumed‘s Matt Harvey! Stream the album and download it below.
These motherfuckers right here! Massive thrash attack Revocation have made their comeback and it’s fucking sweet. These dudes never disappoint and their new album is sure to be no different. If you’ve been worried that maybe Revocation have gotten tame in the time since they released their last full-length. Well let me assure you that these Bostonians have not and will not lose speed. Want proof? Check out the band’s new track “The Hive” after the jump!
Chicago’s dooming metallers Earthen Grave have released a new track from the remastered and re-released version of their self-titled album. “Death Is Another Word…” appears as a bonus track on the album and, if you are a fan of classic doom metal, you need to get down on this. I thought Earthen Grave‘s self-titled album, which was released last year, was pretty rad and I am stoked to hear what they have done to it. Check out the new track below.
Rotting Christ have been a staple in the extreme music scene for a long, long time. The band has had quite a few genre shifts in their career, starting off as a grindcore bands before switching to straight-forward black metal and now to blackened extreme whateveryouwant. Regardless, the band’s career has ebbed and flowed with me, with some albums standing out much more than others. The band’s latest album Kata Ton Daimona Eaytoy has stuck with me, however, and I see it as one of their best releases in years.
I’ve fairly new to Moss Of Moonlight. By “fairly new,” I mean I have never heard them before this very post. After a few listens to the bands new track via their recently-released lyric video, I am definitely interested in them now. Described as “blackened folk metal,” I knew I was in for something interesting, but had no idea I was going to get this. Blissful melodies, harsh vocals, harmonized clean vocals, everything working so well together. It’s great. If you’ve haven’t checked out Moss of Moonlight, do it below. 





Southern sludge stalwarts Kylesa have released a rad new music video for their track “Unspoken,” which comes off of their latest release Ultraviolet. This video is like none that I have seen lately. It’s pretty fucking incredible. Beautifully drawn images brought to life and set to the tune of the fabulous Kylesa. Check out the video below.
