During the worldwide pandemic, when many bands were setting up livestreams, symphonic metal pioneers Within Temptation decided to go even further and presented the virtual reality show The Aftermath. This spectacular immersive, tech-driven event allowed them to perform in four different futuristic virtual worlds that interact with both the band and the music. The set included both old and new material, as they presented the single Shed My Skin for the first time during the live set and played a brand new version of Forsaken”

The Aftermath EP features four live tracks from the virtual reality show, including the single Forsaken (The Aftermath) and Shed My Skin featuring Rudi Schwarzer and Christoph Wieczorek, both from the German post-hardcore band Annisokay.

The Aftermath EP is available as a limited edition of 3000 individually numbered copies on transparent vinyl. Side B of this 12 inch contains an exclusive full colour print based on the shows artwork.
