Dark Tranquillity lose members 2021-08-13 by Lelle | 16 Comments | Melodic death metal band Dark Tranquillity has just announced that two long time members, Anders Jivarp and Anders Iwers, have chosen to leave Dark Tranquillity.
In a post on the band's official Facebook and instagram pages, founding member and lead singer Mikael Stanne writes the following:
Times have truly changed.
This last year and a half has been challenging to say the least, and we've all had time to think over our decisions and motivations in all aspects of life. When removed from what you take for granted, it becomes clear that you realize what is truly important in life. And this is different for everybody.
Anders Jivarp and Anders Iwers have decided to move on to other things and not be a part of the band anymore.
These are two of the most amazing, loyal and dedicated friends and musicians you could ever find and as sad as we are seeing them go, we know that if passion leads you elsewhere you should follow it.
Anders Jivarp has of course been there from the very beginning, being instrumental in creating the sound that eventually became our own. His songs are some of our most beloved and with the exception of one insane evening in Istanbul 20 years ago he has played every single show since the band's inception. We're excited to hear what will come out of Anders' future musical projects.
Anders Iwers has been with us for the last six years but since we have known each other from the very early days of the band it felt like he had always been there. He played on our two latest records, not to mention being an integral part of our live shows.
We love you guys so much and we wish you the absolute best in everything that you do.
Mikael

Where was the last place they had them? Have they looked properly?
| | | Imagine going to Sweden and calling out Anders and 37 dudes all turn around at once
| | | you wouldn't be wrong about that
maybe like 6-7 would turn around
| | | The Eriksens and Thomas would continue their way.
| | | Damn that sucks, hope whoever replaces them will do well
| | | Incredible commitment by Anders Jivarp. 32 years in the same band. Hats off to him. I can’t think of another drummer in metal who’s done longer bar Lars and McBrain
| | | What happened in Istanbul?
| | | Istanbul happened
| | | Woow only Stanne remains from the original lineup now. :/

Haake

Haake
As a matter of fact, the moment Haake decides to leave meshuggah, that will be the end of the band for me. No one can replace him.
| | | i'd imagine meshuggah just retires instead of haake leaving
| | | fuck
| | | Sundin and then Jivarp? This is fucked up! Wishing the guys all the best though.
| | | Fuck band is almost out of Anders
| | | Holy shit. This band is still around?
