German post-metal collective The Ocean are continuing with lineup shifts with the most recent taking place following their recent End Of An Eon tour series. After parting ways with longtime drummer Paul Seidel in February, later replaced by Jordi Farré (Crippled Black Phoenix, Dool), the band has now parted ways with guitarist David Ramis Åhfeldt, who announced his departure on Tuesday (10th). The group has yet to make an official statement.

Åhfeldt shared the following on his Instagram, expressing: 

“I’ve decided to step down from my position as guitarist of The Ocean. The reasons are purely personal, and I want to be clear that there’s absolutely no bad blood between any of us. I love the guys deeply and will always be grateful for the experiences we’ve shared over the years.

Without getting too deep into it, I’ve come to realize that I’m no longer happy being involved in the band — and that’s something I can’t ignore. That said, these past years have been an incredible ride, and I’m thankful to have met so many of you along the way. Your support has meant the world to me. I’ll be playing my final shows with the band soon, including an epic closing chapter show at @hellfestopenair . If you happen to be at any of the shows, please come and say hi — I’d love that. Much love to you all, David”
