Title: The next Abba
Post by: Krusher on April 26, 2006, 07:03:40 AM: Maybe not, but they sure are snappy dressers.

Lordi (http://www.nytimes.com/iht/2006/04/24/world/24finn.html?ex=1146196800&en=ac3cc1ea292ea5af&ei=5087%0A)

They have eight-foot retractable latex Satan wings, sing hits like "Chainsaw Buffet" and blow up slabs of smoking meat on stage. So members of the band Lordi expected a reaction when they beat a crooner of love ballads to represent Finland at the Eurovision song contest in Athens, the competition that was the springboard for Abba and Celine Dion.

And we now see the results of 4 of those encounters LOL

As for the band.
Good for them.

Post by: mora on April 26, 2006, 03:22:29 PM: I have to admit that against all my principles I voted for Lordi. The best damn 50 cents I've ever spent. The whining has been priceless.

I did too, although I haven't liked the band before. But I'm glad I did vote them, it's been fun reading the whines in newspapers. :)

Rumors even circulated that Lordi members were agents sent by President Vladimir V. Putin to destabilize Finland before a Russian coup — an explanation for their refusal to take off their freakish masks in public.

Ok so it is not just the finns that post to this board that are insane. It is all of them.

Thanks for clearing that up for us krusher.

Gwar would kick these guys ass's though. :D

But there is little risk that anyone, Finnish or otherwise, will stare at Lordi's furry platform demon boots, he adds, noting that Lordi could embarrass Finland when it takes over the European Union presidency in July.

That says it all right there.

The whole package it seems. 5 mintues into a Gwar show you are covered in fake blood and are deaf. Gwar had Chics though...

I was thinking more along the lines of the contest they were in. Prior winners included Abba and Celine Dion eckkk !

Yes, they're influenced by KISS. Lordi is infact the president of the Finnish KISS fanclub.

A friend of mine told me a story about meeting the mentors at a gas station. They asked him for money, so they can get gas and continue on with their tour :rofl
Never the less, the mentors ruled. Especially with that freaky story about The Duce being hired by Courtney Love to kill Kurt Cobain, and then getting killed by a semi truck....or sumting like that..

Title: The next Abba
Post by: lasersailor184 on April 27, 2006, 11:06:40 PM: I've actually been listening to them for a few days.

My two favorites so far are "The Devil is a Loser," and "Rock the Hell out of you." I like them better then "Hard Rock Hallelujah."

And for those who haven't really tried yet, you should 'Acquire' a few songs. They are not as hard core or scary as they make themselves out to be.
