Memento Mori is the fifth studio album by the Norwegian heavy metal band Sahg, released on September 23, 2016 under Indie Recordings.[2] The album features two new band members: drummer Mads Lilletvedt (ex- Hellish Outcast) and guitarist Ole Walaunet (a.k.a.Lust Kilman from Gaahls Wyrd).
The album release date coincides with the 39th birthday of Olav Iversen (Sahg frontman), an aspect that's symbolic to the title. Iversen explains:
Memento Mori was one of several options that we had on note for a long time. But then Lemmy (Kilmister) died. And (David) Bowie died. And all of a sudden, all these rock icons disappeared, one by one. People that have made their imprint on history and influenced us musically since childhood. It made a great impression on a personal level, and started a grieving process that influenced the making of the album. Suddenly it was very clear what the album title would be. “Remember, you must die”. Even immortal legends like Bowie and Lemmy don’t live forever.[3]
