Swedish grand seigneurs of gloom **KATATONIA** have parted ways with founding guitarist **Anders Nyström**.

**KATATONIA** singer **Jonas Renkse** released the following statement via social media: "**Anders Nyström** and I are going our separate ways. A decision not taken lightly, but for everyone to thrive and move forward with their own creative preferences as well as personal schedules this has become the realistic option.

"**Anders** and I started the band in 1991 and his impact on the band's trademark sound is undeniable.

"As bleak as this sounds, and is, it's further evidence of life getting in the way of our preferred plans. I wish **Anders** all the best for the future."
