Rise To Power

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.

The sheer speed of their creative output shows how consistently Memoriam follow this path: Following the initial success of the Hellfire Demos trilogy, Memoriam signed with Nuclear Blast in 2016. The band went on to release For the Fallen (2017), The Silent Vigil (2018) and Requiem for Mankind (2019) ensuring within a very short time that Memoriam were firmly established among loyal Death Metal fans. This was supported by dozens of concerts, which have taken the band from selected club shows to major festival appearances (e.g. Hellfest, Wacken, Summer Breeze, Graspop). Following the success of this initial trilogy, Memoriam switched to the young label Reaper Entertainment.

The album To the End, the first of a new trilogy, was released in 2021. The second album of the trilogy, Rise to Power, is released in early 2023.
