I like Norther quite a bit. In fact, if I were to rate all 3 of their albums against all 3 of Skyfire's, I take Norther's 1st and 2nd but Skyfire's 3rd. Either way, it's great music and gives you more selection. I eat this Finnish/Swedish sound like candy and I don't really care who sounds like who, I buy all of their albums because I love this genre of metal!!!!
