Do you know what make, model, year of vehicle it is? Was it a new/fully charged battery? If so then probably blew a few main fuses, ECU, alternator and other electricals.
Hi, the factory radio uses the illumination wire, but the aftermarket
radio does not. You have to make sure that wire is taped off so it
doesn't short the illumination circuit. Check your tail lights fuse.
If it's blown, pull the head unit and disconnect/tape off the
illumination wire (blue with a white stripe) from the factory harness.
Then put in a fresh fuse. If you have more questions, please specify
the model of the head unit.

At a guess, I'd say that you have got the new battery in back to front. This means that you are hooking the earth wires to the Positive side of the battery.
to check for a parasitic drain, you will need a multimeter. with battery fully charged, remove negative cable from battery. set meter to 300mA and put negative lead on the battery's negative post. put positive lead on vehicle's negative cable and check meter reading. usually, there's an initial draw for a short time (1 or 2 seconds) for the vehicle'ssecurity system, relays, etc. after that, it should only pull 30-40 mA or so, for the digital clock, radio settings, etc. if you're seeing higher numbers, try removing the main fuses (under hood fuse box) one-by-one to see where the problem is. it's also possible that a diode has gone bad in your alternator, which will draw current when the vehicle isn't running. you can check this by disconnecting the alternator's electrical connector to see if you notice a difference on the meter.
disconnect the negative battery terminal, replace the fuse with all the wires hooked up to the amp and reconnect the battery terminal, that way the initial surge of power goes through the negative terminal and not your inline fuse. That should solve your problem.
U most likely blew a fuse, replace it, if the fuse goes again check the wiring to the radio refer to this wiring chart for color difinitions of radio wiring.
