Memoriam Stream Lemmy, Bowie Death Inspired New Song

Memoriam have released a lyric video for their new track "Surrounded By Death." The song comes from their forthcoming album "For The Fallen" which is set to be released on March 24th,

Karl Willetts had this to say about the inspiration for the new track, "The lyrics to this song work on many levels. initially it relates to the literal interpretation of death all around on the battlefield.

"The song was written when there was a lot of high profile celebrity deaths e.g. Lemmy Kilmister 28/12/2015, David Bowie 10/01/2016, this was all over the media at the time when I was writing the lyrics to the song and had a major influence in the process. It seems that we all live in a world where we are all surrounded by death.

"Death itself is a taboo subject that we never really think about or discuss until it actually happens to someone we know and love, in this respect the song is a reference to Martin Kiddie Kearns and also to Franks dad who died not long after Martin.

"It is in some way a tribute their lives along with all the other people we have known and respected that have now passed on." Check out the song here.
