Finnish monster-rockers LORDI are coming your way. With the release of their new album Deadache hitting the U.S. just in time for Halloween, the holiday won't end come November. Kicking it all off with a performance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on 11/6/08, LORDI will be bringing the over-the-top, unstoppable, horror movie theatrics and pyrotechnic-fueled rock 'n' roll to a city near you. To preface the release of Deadache and the tour, the band will preview tracks from the album on
their MySpace page every day this week!
Mr. Lordi, who designed all new costumes for the band, has a gang of monsters at his side-- Amen the unstoppable mummy, Awa the vampire countess, Ox the hellbull, and Kita the alien manbeast. Together they take fans on an anthemic rock 'n' roll journey-- nothing short of a total bombardment of the senses. The riffs are certainly not de-fleshed nor are the mighty choruses mummified. These songs are proof: monsters do have more fun! And sharing in the fun will be Lizzy Borden and Stolen Babies for all shows below.
