Opeth announces replacement for former drummer Martin Axenrot
Last year we reported that longtime drummer Martin Axenrot and Opeth had parted ways due to "conflict of interests".
The former Paradise Lost drummer Waltteri Väyrynen has been confirmed as Opeth's new drummer after stepping down from that role.
This week, it was announced that Väyrynen would leave Paradise Lost and that Guido Montanarini from Strigoi would take over the drum seat. In his letter of thanks to the band, management, crew, and fans, Väyrynen said his departure had no bad blood or drama, and that he still considers his bandmates friends and looks forward to where the band goes musically.

Why? He's a hired gun, will play on a salary and I doubt it's a lot of money. The only one making bank is Akerfeldt because he writes all the songs.
Paradise Lost is much better than Opeth at this point. A shame that Waltteri Väyrynen would rather play in Akerfeldt's boring Camel worship project instead.

I have a very large penis. It looks like a circumcised stick of Salami. Your mother is a whore and you serve no purpose on this planet. All comments before, and after this post, are invalid.
