Post Momentary Affliction is the third studio album by Australian Christian metal band Mortification, released in 1993. The album's sound has Mortification returning to their thrash metal roots, but with death metal elements still showing. It contains an alternate recording of the track "Impulsation" from the band's Break the Curse demo album. Post Momentary Affliction was bundled with Mortification's 1992 album Scrolls of the Megilloth on Nuclear Blast and included "Butchered Mutilation" as a bonus track, releasing on 18 November 1996. Reissues of the album were released on Metal Mind Productions in 2008 and on Soundmass in 2020, respectively, with both including "Butchered Mutilation" and three live bonus tracks. In 2010, HM Magazine ranked Post Momentary Affliction No. 70 on the Top 100 Christian metal albums of all-time list.[1]
