    After the death of drummer Otus and the departure of keyboardist Awa, two new members are now in the band - Mana on drums and Hella on keyboards.

    From the official website:

    The band have, as always, updated their costumes for the release of the new record. Here are Lordi of 2013:

    Because it's freaking disgusting.

    I loved it how Coldplay for example wore those revolutionary costumes for Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends era, but not like this... Lordi, Slipknot... :puke:

    TRUTH.

    Me too. Their covers have been awesome, especially from Deadache onwards.

    That's the whole point.

    And it means a whole lot to them. They never show their faces unmasked. A past drummer, Kita, had to leave the band, because he was a vocalist in another band. With the other band, he performed unmasked, thus "breaking the rules" of Lordi.

    Now no one forces you to like the idea of their image or their music.
