Angelus Apatrida han lanzado el tema ‘To Whom It May Concern’ como segundo adelanto de Aftermath, el nuevo disco que publicarán el próximo 20 de octubre. Se trata de una canción épica de más de ocho minutos en la que la banda lleva al oyente por diferentes niveles de intensidad, con pasajes lentos y melódicos y otros donde las guitarras thrasheras funcionan a tope.
Al igual que su anterior álbum homónimo, Aftermath ha sido producido por la banda, con grabaciones a cargo de Juanan López en Baboon Records en Albacete, España y luego mezclado y masterizado con Zeuss (Rob Zombie, Overkill) en Planet-Z (Estados Unidos).
El grupo ha confirmado que incluirá colaboraciones especiales de Jamey Jasta (Hatebreed, voz), Pablo García (Warcry, guitarras), Todd La Torre (Queensrÿche, voz) y el rapero Sho-Hai (voz).

Esta es la letra de la canción:
«In this void where hope is hard to find
Alone I sit within my mind
I lay surrounded by despair
Lost without a trace
I sit in a cold and empty place
Where I can hide myself away
Here I stand embraced by darkness
Unknown faces all around the place
The silent echoes bring their pain
It reminds me all my struggle was in vain
The lurking shadows in this room
Chasing demons blinded by disgrace
Beneath the shadow of the gallows
Motionless, I firmly hold the rope
Don’t let me go / I’m not ready
What would it take to keep me here with you?
Don’t let me go / Hold me tight
I don’t wanna go, don’t let my memory fade away
Trembling fingers scratch the surface
Of an endless tomb of twisted thoughts
The wounds that bleed my broken heart
A constant fear that tears this world apart
Don’t let me go / I’m not ready
What would it take to keep me here with you?
Don’t let me go / Hold me tight
I don’t wanna go, don’t let my memory fade away
Don’t let me go… guide my way through this valley
The fading light, my soul’s so lost
Don’t let me fall… this road is dark and dreary
The shadows creep and crawl behind me
Reaching out for a helping hand
But no one seems to understand
In this vast and distant space
Soundless noises unbearably loud
A lonely figure in the crowd
Would you ever recognize my face?
Got a time bomb ticking in my head
Erased by time and wasted years
Would you ever say my name?
Then I wish I could be someone else
And I know it’s okay to feel this way
The thing is I’m scared as fuck
So, I can’t blame anyone
Suffocating grasp of madness
Let the devil come and take his toll
Whispering sins are due to pay
Left behind my fate down in a hole
A black abyss behind my shoulders
Carrying this burden through the eternal cold
Trembling fingers scratch the surface
I write this letter to whom it may concern
Don’t let me go / I’m not ready
What would it take to keep me here with you?
Don’t let me go / Hold me tight
I don’t wanna go, don’t let my memory fade away».
