Enslaved drummer quits band

After fifteen years with Norwegian extreme metal band Enslaved, drummer Cato Bekkevold is leaving the group. Bekkevold says that in addition to wanting to see his young daughter grow up, he's also having a hard time coping with the physical demands of metal drumming at age 50. He will play his final show with Enslaved at Hellfest later this month. Bekkevold posted a video detailing his decision, which you can check out here:

Came here for news, but now I'm imagining two drummers sticking drum sticks up each others rear while on all fours. In my mind, they are giddy and giggling loudly. Each wiping tears away from their eyes as they gently thrust their other hand forward. Thank you.
