Aftermath was an early Sydney death metal act established in 1991. While they never managed a commercial release, Aftermath issued a number of staunch demos that got them noticed enough to play no less than four international supports slots, appearing alongside '''Carcass''', '''Cannibal Corpse''', '''Deicide''' and '''Pungent Stench'''. Despite such an impressive resume, Aftermath had become fraught with personnel problems by 1996 and split up late that year. Tony and Jay were replaced by Shane and Pat Piercy respectively in 1994; they themselves were replaced the next year by Leif Gregory and Alex Hole. Gregory later joined [[Dark Order]] and Shane Pearcy went to [[Volatile]] and then [[Bludgeoner]]. Hole was later in '''Sh'mantra''' with ex-'''Cruciform''' members Michael Lenton and Matt Seldon.
