I don't see why Norther felt to need to rerecord this. Kride's vocals were a big part of the song, and Aleksi's clean vocals aren't as good, and the growls sound very forced. The old version is much better, and remains to be one of my favorites.
Norther is my favorite band and I must admit I'm gonna miss petri a lot because his guitar skills were mad and I got used to his vocals in norther's songs but aleksi is good too ofc he doesn't know how to play guitar as good as petri but his voice is really amazing
I still don't know why they kicked petri out of norther though..=/
it's not that super bad if you hear it over the times.. but it was my favorite song of all times,
And the thing that did hurt me the most (only this song.. the rest is not that bad by Aleksi) is the scream at 1:26, and the one at the end and further in that song..
And I can't sing the older lyrics.. I'm stuck to the older version.
It's something you have to get used to.. but be a fan.. wear your shirt.. if ye don't like it fine!
What the fuck! The new vocalist can't be above the merit of Petri. The timbre doesn't fit the melodic death metal sound Norther was based upon. Additionally, the stylistic articulations of his voice, both clean and distorted, make the transition between progressions and modulations sound like asshole. His voice doesn't allow the emotional precision in the lyricism and purity. You FUCKED up Norther! Good job.
I don't like him more than Petri or Petri more than him, this guy brings me something new and interesting for the band, im positive, can't wait for the new albums and gig!
well in my view, this new version is fantastic, some parts are even better than b4 except the choros of this version which is absolutely 100% false nd pathetic... but rather than this this version is good
Sorry to say Mike, but Aleksi's Vocals don't cut out for me, end of fucking story, I'd rather have Petri in it, fire Heikki and put Kai Hahto on the drums. Norther, wait Nu-Ther now are a fuckin joke.
you dont like it then dont listen to their new stuff simple as. Why would you wanna get rid of Heikki.. They will probs end up getting Jari after Time is out anywho.. then get Kai.. and kick out Kride for Teemu Mäntysaari and then we have 2 Wintersuns.. with Tuomas doing synths..
Some metal noobs already have enough trouble telling Children of Bodom and Norther apart, now Alexi and Aleksi, should be interestin. Pretty kick ass voice though. Gonna miss Petri, but at least he's in Ensiferum now.
He was born with the name Aleksi, but Alexi is not an incorrect way of spelling his name. It is just another spelling of his name that he uses. And besides, I will use the X if I want to, so calm down Mr. "I live in Finland." There is no need to get flippy over the alleged misspelling of someone elses name. And by the way, you were wrong. Oh snap.
Well to be honest there must be some people over there who do because like they did tour over there in North America didnt they? :P Or was it only Canada??
But making posters and crap will help advertising and that. Put them up in like music shops clubs etc etc btw Norther are one of my main influences for my band, my singing style is kinda like Kride,, must post some stuff here sometime anyway haa
wow, i don't wanna know where u live haha * honestLy, there are alot of melodic death metal fans in america, belive me, maybe not as much as in europe, but enough ;) . ^^
kride's clean vocals are very good, better than aleksi's. But his are unique too, but as far as screaming goes aleksi has got more range than petri. But then again its hard to replace the original mastermind behind the songs of norther
yeahhh Pete was there for 10 years and still is through the music. But it was time to move on without rather than having to keep cancelling tours and that. I hear Norther cancelled 5 whole tours because of him.
.. anyone new member doesn't belong to the new band, it comes with time. like petri lindroos sucked in start with ensiferum, but now i'd say its better than jari.
This guy is my new IDOL!!! If you fuckers think he sucks...compare what he does at 3:19 and 3:55 vs petri. This guy is a fucking vocal god, better than kride and petri put together.
I know man. He is so fuckin dynamic too. Petri was assisted by Kride anyway. This guy is more intense with the harsh vox and epic with his cleans. I dont like his lyrics with the updated one tho...THis one is the best!!!
Petriiiiiiii ! creo q hablo por todos los fans de Norther al decir q TE EXTRAÑO ! :( mira lo q es norther ahora :( ! Aleksi Sihvonen no es ni una pulgada de lo q eras tu en Norther y Ensiferum parece nunca florecer ... kero devuelta al Norther q me cautivo con sus punteos de guitarra y bases melodicas combinadas a la perfeccion con el gutural :( !
When you get a chance listen to some of MedicateD or Imperanon he does better vocals in them In my opinion. I'll upload a couple of songs for you tomorrow if you want?
stop bitching about who's better at vocals, enjoy the fucking music dammit

This was posted on Aleksi's myspace for a long time. I don't know if it still is, and he would send you a copy of you asked...
You don't have to be apart of a 'street team' or anything like that to get your hands on it.
So nothing special.
As far as the music goes, at least Aleksi didn't weigh down his voice with 100 effects and layers like in the other version.
