June 7, 2009, 15 years ago
MetalFromFinland.com have posted an interview with NORTHER's new vocalist, Aleksi Sihvonen, who recently replaced Peter Lindroos. An excerpt is available below.
Q: You’re also the singer of MEDICATED. How did your decision being also the Norther frontman change your situation in Medicated? Is there a change or is it just normal?
Sihvonen: "I can’t think about a single thing that this Norther situation has changed in Medicated. Of course some schedule problems will occur sooner or later but in my opinion there’s nothing to come that we can’t handle."
Q: Are you nervous about the Norther “project”? About touring and the feedback from the fans or something like that?
Sihvonen: "Not that much. The only thing I am worried about is the jump straight up to the bigger league. I got some experience when IMPERANON was up and running and from other occasions too, but this is certainly the biggest thing I have ever been in musically. I think the fans have welcomed me pretty well and I don’t think there will be problems touring with these guys. I have fitted in so well and I think we will have a good time."

A version of the song ‘Frozen Angel’ (taken from Norther's current album N) featuring Sihvonen's vocals can be heard here.
