Aftermath Release Video For Re-Imagined Version Of John Lennon's Classic "Give Peace A Chance"
March 16th, 2020 • New Video Release
Aftermath release their new music video for their re-imagined version of John Lennon's classic "Give Peace A Chance."
John Lennon's urgent call for peace in "Give Peace A Chance" is more important today than ever, and our call for peace with this cover is the perfect message to follow up our previous album. We released a dark concept album with a bleak message and felt it was important to follow that up with something positive. The visuals in the video are as important as the lyrics in a way. We live in a visual world today and this video needed to get out the message of 'hope'. Having a young girl be the focus of the video was our way of getting that across. Seeing only positive acts when she puts on Lennon's famous glasses was the perfect visual metaphor. Lennon's message is transmitted not only through his lyrics but also through the perspective created by his unique lenses," says the band.

The video was directed by critically acclaimed video director Steven Nathan in New York City.
Chicago based Aftermath is fronted by Kyriakos 'Charlie' Tsiolis, and formed in October 1985 when Charlie and his schoolmate Steve Sacco (Guitar) got together. This early incarnation with Adam (Bass) and Ray Schmidt (Drums) released their first demo in 1986 featuring the songs "Sentenced To Death," "Revenge," "Shotgun," and "The Aftermath."
Aftermath is currently writing and recording new music.
