Additional notes:John Lazerty and John Lovette are the same person. Lovette''s last name was spelled wrong by someone and many magazines list him as two people.
In January of 1997 the group retaining a stable line up and augmenting their sound with the addition of DJ Delta 9 and female vocalist Roxanne, retitled themselves Mother God Moviestar opting to pursue an alternative rock direction.
Quite famously as Aftermath the act lost a notable court case with high profile millionaire rapper Dr. Dre over the ownership of the name. The rapper reportedly made a concilitary offer of some $50,000 for rights to use the name but would go ahead and use it regardless. Fortunately for the band this period of turmoil had built bridges with Interscope Records.
Not to be confused with Aftermath (USA) from Arizona or with Aftermath (USA) from Belle Mead, New Jersey or with Aftermath (USA) from New Jersey/Connecticut
