Lordi Rules!

C(o)untless pitch-dark 20-hour-nights during winter, insomnia caused by 20-hour-white-days during summer, salty and fatty diet and extreme amounts of Vodka and standard way of living in Finnish Lapland truly breeds curious creatures! Lordi to be one of them.

This morning my colleagues were grinning about Finland´s this year contribution to the European SongTorture Show referring to a Lappish Monster Rock Band resembling Klingons!? I was out like a mitten from this story and had to check it out. And my fears materialized - it is true! During my protected years in Amsterdam, I had been saved for this phenomena. But now I have to face it - Europe WILL be scared!!!

LOL and KRÄK! These Guys are truly Oudda-Dis-Wööld! Hilariously Ridiculous and Deliciously Tasteless wearing some pretty imaginative stage-costumes. Serious Guys - a group of innocent youngsters having a bit of fun only. Öo)

This Saturday it truly pays to be by the TV and enjoy the pyrotechnics and prosthetics of this band. People in Finland have even contributed privately to ensure that the amount of fire, sparks and explosions during Lordi´s short appearance on stage keeps the Greek Firefighters alert.
