Memoriam 'Rise To Power' LP 180g Purple Vinyl

Memoriam needs no introduction †they are living legends of Old School Death Metal.  Not only because the former fields of activity of the Brits belonged and still belong to  the pioneers of UK Death Metal, but because they managed to follow their master plan more  than precisely. Memoriam has built up  their own loyal fan base over  the past seven years and developed its own musical identity. It would certainly have been easy for them to just follow the old paths, but the true art of the band is that they never deny their origins, but gradually incorporate something new  †with every album a few new nuances and facets are added.  

'Rise To Power' will not only once again offer an atmospherically dense Dan Seagrave cover, the war theme stylized on it also runs through Karl Willetts’ lyrics: With 'Never Forget, Never Again (6 Million Dead)' about the Holocaust and the, unfortunately, more than current 'Total War' about the war in Ukraine, Karl is more political than ever. "I amwriting  'our  burden  and  shame'  instead  of  'their'  as  I  believe  it  is  our  collective responsibility to ensure that something like the Holocaust never happens again. I feel that it is my responsibility as a frontman and lyricist to write about the things that I feel are important," explains  Karl.  

Memoriam transforms aggression and grief into uncompromising Death Metal energy.
