That could be a reason why he left Bloodbath abruptly (again). Oh well, maybe Peter Tagtgren could come back.

I don't know if we'll see the end of Opeth though, but I would definitely not be surprised if their album releases become less frequent as the members wish to start other projects. Not that it's a bad thing though, I mean there's been multiple bands coming forward and doing what Opeth were doing ten years ago, so we still have lots of progressive death metal to go around.
