Hopefully he's a good vocalist, and does a bit of the harsh vocals, otherwise they'll never be able to play songs like Typhon again which would suck  so hopefully he's alright \m/

Yeah, he's good. Drummer and, um, harsh-singing vocalist. Good news for Therion fans I guess...

I hope he's a good vocalist, he at least has to make a good replacement for Christopher's vocals.

I never really like Christophers voice, so I hope it gets better.
