Seigmen Biography
Seigmen emerged when the 80s became the 90s. Hailing from the small town of Tønsberg, a sleepy place that becomes a holiday destination / party central during the short Norwegian summer. It is an unlikely place to foster a band that became one of the most successful Norwegian rock bands ever, with their particular brand of edgy melancholy grandeur. Alex Møklebust (vocals), Kim Ljung (bass), Noralf Ronthi (drums), Sverre Økshoff (guitar) and Marius Roth (guitar) all brought different favorites to the mix, from grunge and hardcore, to prog and synth pop. Despite the diversity, it was the rising wave from Seattle that made Sony Music sign the band, a cooperation that spawned several top 10 songs and albums. The breakthrough came with Total in 1994, produced by Sylvia Massy (Tool etc.), later voted one of Norway´s top 100 albums of all time. Metropolis (1995) went platinum and won a Norwegian Grammy. Radiowaves (1997) charted at no. 1. Despite the success, it all ended in 1999 when Økshoff decided to leave, and Seigmen disbanded, true to the creed “One for all and all for one”. However, it´s hard to abandon musical friendship and uniqueness. They reunited five year on and in 2015 turned full circle with the new album Enola, recorded in the studio where it all started with Pluto in 1992.
