Forging a Future Self is the debut album by American heavy metal band After the Burial. It was recorded in 2005 and released on March 1, 2006 through Corrosive Records.

Background

This is the only album to feature the band's original vocalist Nick Wellner and drummer Greg Erickson who were replaced by Grant Luoma and Dan Carle respectively when the band was signed to Sumerian Records later in 2007. The album is the band's lightest effort, putting a big emphasis on experimental musical styles along with influence from Meshuggah. After the release of the record, the group would pursue a heavier style with the release of Rareform.

The song "Fingers Like Daggers" is the only song from this album that stayed a part of the band's live setlist after they acquired Anthony Notarmaso as lead vocalist.
