At The Point Of No Return is the second taste of Endgame, the album that closes the British death metal veterans’ ten-year run.

The story
Memoriam have released ‘At The Point Of No Return’, the second single from Endgame, which the band have confirmed is their final studio album. It follows the first single, ‘Nothing More To Say’, and the record is due on 29/01/2027 through Reaper Entertainment on CD, digital and vinyl, including a limited collector’s edition.
Vocalist Karl Willetts says the song deals with the human cost of decisions taken far from the battlefield, a theme that has run through the band since they formed in 2016. Endgame was produced by Russ Russell, carries artwork by Dan Seagrave and features Dirk Verbeuren on drums alongside Willetts, bassist Frank Healy and guitarist Scott Fairfax.

Our take
Memoriam were built as a memorial project, so ending on a record called Endgame is consistent rather than sentimental. The band have kept a tight creative circle for a decade: Russell behind the desk and Seagrave on the covers both return for the finale, which tells fans this is a deliberate close and not a contractual afterthought.
The interesting variable is Verbeuren. A drummer with his profile choosing to play on a farewell album says something about the band’s standing among peers. For South African fans who missed Memoriam live, this is likely the last campaign, so collectors should move on the limited edition early; import shipping makes a second chance expensive.
Bottom line
For fans of Bolt Thrower-era British death metal and late-period Benediction. Pre-order now if you want the collector’s edition; the standard formats will be easy to find after 29/01/2027.
