“Aftermath” foi lançada como single principal em 24 de janeiro de 1994, antecedendo o álbum de estreia de Tricky, *Maxinquaye* (1995).
A faixa conta com a participação vocal de Martina Topley‑Bird, cujos cantos melódicos contrastam com a entrega sussurrada e rouca de Tricky.
É amplamente citada como uma das músicas fundacionais do trip‑hop, destacando‑se pelo ritmo lento e pelo uso intenso de samples.
A produção combina a voz suave de Topley‑Bird com a textura áspera de Tricky, criando uma dinâmica única que influenciou toda a cena musical do gênero.
