The first thing that drew me to Chris Mills' Living In The Aftermath was the album art. Isn't it awesome! It is like something straight out of a seventies horror comic book. And not surprisingly the album was true to form and was themed after such an idea. Chris spins tales of lovers running from vampires, aliens, and a-bombs. With themes it is obvious that these ideas were harvested from old horror movies and old-school Twilight Zone.  From the very first song entitled "Calling All Comrades" I fell in love with this album. With seemingly up-beat piano melodies and energetic vocals he portays interesting and mind teasing lyrics that wrap you up in stories that you love. The second song titled "Living In The Aftermath" is one equally as amazing the vocals are clear and delivery perfect. With lyrics as meaningful as "Blood is a funny thing, the more you lose sometimes the more you gain." Other gems such as "Nightmare at 20,000 feet," "Untitled No. 1" and "Atom Smashers" continue the brilliance. Overall Chris Mills made a brilliant album that I will share with all of my friends. There is no weakness on the album. Living In The Aftermath is a seemingly perfect effore and every word of it portrays such beautiful imagery that you will be hooked
