Memento Mori was a Swedish band that is mainly doom metal but has some power metal influences.^[1][2] The band was founded by Messiah Marcolin, Snowy Shaw and Mike Wead in 1992 after Messiah left Candlemass and Wead took a break from his other band Hexenhaus. After two albums, however, Messiah left the band because he was not credited as a song writer; Snowy Shaw also quit the band to work with the reunited Mercyful Fate. The third album was sung by Kristian Andrén who used to sing for Swedish Power Doom Metal band Tad Morose. Messiah returned for the fourth album entitled "Songs for the Apocalypse Vol IV" sadly without Snowy Shaw. Drum duties were taken over by fellow Swede and Memory Garden drummer Tom Bjorn.After that album, the band broke up. All albums were released by Black Mark.
