They quickly replaced him with Ronnie Bergerståhl, he was already a friend of the band and had filled in for Mikael before. Drummer Robin Bergh also left the band for personal reasons in 2004, he was replaced with Pär Hjulström. 2005 saw a parade of new members pass through Amaran, culinating in December with the dissolution of the band.

Amaran officialy broke up on Decemeber 28, 2005. 2004 (MMIV) was a leap year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...
