Lordi Video Showcase

So, what are their concerts like? In short, they're amazing!

I had the great opportunity to see them live twice. The first show was Ozzfest, where they had a large stage and a huge crowd. The open space allowed them to use their signature pyrotechnics, and it was fantastic! There were rockets, sparks, flames, and explosive percussion.

The second show was at a small venue in my hometown. I was worried at first that the show would be lacking, as due to the space restrictions it would be impossible for them to do their pyrotechnic thing. However, my fears were unfounded, as even without flames and sparks it was probably the best concert I've ever been to. At this show, I got to see them right up close, and they looked amazing! I was totally unprepared for their stage presence. I don't know if it's the costumes adding bulk or their large platform shoes or if they're just really tall, but at risk of cliche they looked larger than life on stage.

In short, if you ever get the opportunity to see this band live, accept it with no hesitation. You will not be sorry!

Well, nobody really knows! Lordi refuses to be filmed or interviewed without their masks, because they take their appearance and band mythos very seriously.

However they are still very down-to-earth and more than willing to talk to talk about their music. Here's some of what they have to say.
