Sad to hear he is leaving. Johan has been one of my personal favorite drummers for a while. But at least he is leaving for a really good reason. In fact one of the best reasons.

Prayers go out for Johan and his family as they take a new step, and for the remaining members of Pain of Salvation as they deal with another loss in their band.

bassist of Evergrey leaves shortly after the release of their sellout album, drummer of PoS leaves shortly after the release of their sellout album. Let that be a lesson to all you sellouts!

That's two members gone in recent times. Well, I'll still get to see him at Hellfest at least.

These are very bad news, he's one of the best drummers out there. Hope he has a good life with his family anyway.
