After a few months, the band managed to find another rehearsal place, and began looking for members to complete their line-up. After quite a few auditions, they were unable to find musicians that they deemed fit to play with them, and thus went on a hiatus, which lasted until the beginning of 2000, when they met guitarist Kristian Ranta. The band became active once more, and with the help of two brothers who were friends of Lindroos - Sebastian and Joakim Ekroos - the band recorded their first demo, for the first time using the name Norther. A promising demo led to them signing a deal with Spinefarm Records.
Due to internal problems, the Ekroos brothers quit the band; this lead Norther into finding its first stable formation when bassist Jukka Koskinen and keyboardist Tuomas Planman were incorporated into the band.
Norther received a positive response from specialized press after the release of the album Dreams of Endless War. Following this, the band maintained a prolific release schedule, releasing the albums "Mirror of Madness" (2003), "Death Unlimited" (2004), and "Till Death Unites Us" (2006), as well as the singles "Released" (2002), "Unleash Hell" (2003), "Spreading Death" (2003), and Scream (2006), the MiniDVD single Spreading Death, an EP titled Solution 7 (2005) and most lately EP "No Way Back" (2007). A full length album is planned to be recorded in August-September 2007, it was released in Finland in early autumn 2008 carrying name the "N".
In October of 2005, drummer Toni Hallio left the band, leaving guitarist/vocalist Lindroos as the only remaining original member. Hallio was replaced by Heikki Saari, drummer of Virtuocity.
Petri Lindroos left the band in 2009 because his other band Ensiferum took most of his time. Aleksi Sihvonen was hired as the new singer and Daniel Freyberg as the second guitarist. Norther entered Astia studios on October 5, 2010 to record a new album, ''Circle Regenerated'' which was released April 19 2011.
On 24th of July 2012 the band announced on their website that the members have decided to quit Norther because of time issues. The band played its last show on the 10th of August at Brutal Assault Festival 2012 in the Czech Republic.

Midnight Walker
Norther Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the day is done
I'm back again
To steal your life
And I won't go away
Tonight's the night to die
You can try to run
The end end is near
Look at me
You'll feel the fear
I'm your Master,
Emperor, the King
I will always rule your night
You must run faster
The death is in the ring
Staring right into your eyes
I'll take away your life
And end your pain inside
I want to die with you, like you
I am the deadly stalker
I am the Midnight Walker
The one you try to hide
Now say your life goodbye
I'm the shadow behind you
That you can't see
But you know it's there
The day is rising
And I'm fading away
Daytime has made you free
But only for today
Dusk is falling
And once again
I'm in your head
I'm your nightmare,
Fantasy and insanity
Only thing you see
Death will make you free
So walk a little closer
And give your life to me
Let me end your pain
I'll take away your life
And end your pain inside
I want to die with you, like you
I am the deadly stalker
I am the Midnight Walker
The one you try to hide
Now say your life goodbye
I'll take away your life
And end your pain inside
I want to die with you, like you
I am the deadly stalker
I am the Midnight Walker
The one you try to hide
Now say your life goodbye
The lyrics of the song "Midnight Walker" by Norther are rich with symbolism and describe a sinister stalker who is determined to end the listener's life. The first verse sets the tone for the rest of the song, with the stalker announcing his presence and intentions. The use of words like "steal" and "die" create a sense of unease and fear. The stalker then warns the listener that he won't go away and tonight is the night to die. The second verse continues to build tension as the stalker describes himself as the listener's Master, Emperor, and King, claiming to always rule their night. The listener is urged to run faster, but death is already in the ring.
In the chorus, the stalker reveals himself as the Midnight Walker and asserts that he is the one the listener tries to hide from. He promises to take away their life and end their pain, with the desire to die with them. The third verse references the daytime, signaling a temporary reprieve for the listener, but they know the Midnight Walker will return, haunting their dreams and causing fear and insanity. The song ends with the stalker inviting the listener to walk a little closer and give their life to him so he can end their pain.
Overall, "Midnight Walker" is a dark and foreboding song that taps into the listener's primal fear of being stalked and hunted by an unknown force. The lyrics are written in a way that suggests the stalker is otherworldly, with powers beyond that of a mortal. The theme of death and rebirth is also present, with the stalker promising to end the listener's pain and free them from the mundane world of the living.

I am here again
I am the reoccurring evil that haunts you
When the day is done
I come out at night, when the day is over
I'm back again
I return to bring terror
To steal your life
To take away your existence
And I won't go away
I am persistent in my pursuit
Tonight's the night to die
This is the night that will end your life
You can try to run
You may try to escape me
But you will die
But you will not succeed in escaping me
The end end is near
Your time is running out
Look at me
I demand your attention
You'll feel the fear
You will be overcome by terror
I'm your Master,
I have control over you
Emperor, the King
I have ultimate power
I will always rule your night
I will always bring terror to your nights
You must run faster
You must try harder to evade me
The death is in the ring
Your demise is inevitable
Staring right into your eyes
I am looking directly at you
I'll take away your life
I will end your existence
And end your pain inside
I will bring an end to your suffering
I want to die with you, like you
I want to be the cause of your demise
I am the deadly stalker
I am the one who relentlessly pursues you
The one you try to hide
The one you attempt to escape from
Now say your life goodbye
Accept your fate and prepare to die
I'm the shadow behind you
I am the darkness that follows you
That you can't see
That is beyond your perception
But you know it's there
But you are aware of its presence
The day is rising
The morning light is coming
And I'm fading away
I am disappearing with the dawn
Daytime has made you free
The daylight has liberated you
But only for today
But only until the nightfall
Dusk is falling
The night is approaching
And once again
And I return once more
I'm your nightmare,
I am your horrific dream
Fantasy and insanity
An imaginary construct that drives you mad
Only thing you see
The only thing that dominates your vision
Death will make you free
Death will be the only release
So walk a little closer
Come closer to your demise
And give your life to me
And surrender your existence to me
