Lordi - To Beast or Not to Beast

[Fire breath]

I think I'm getting bored with them a little and the magic in the tunes seem a distant memory. The samples sound unexciting though it's hard to judge. The song The Riff has hilarious lyrics though but the tune itself is pretty average. I think they are trying to sound a little bit more modern harder edged in their production and I'm not sure it's the right move though I guess they didn't want to make the same album over and over.

I like that The Riff song, and yes the lyrics are really funny. The samples sound good as well IMO, even though the sound quality is shitty. Their first 3 discs are surely their best ones and since then, their work is quite patchy, but I'm looking forward to that new one anyway.

I loved them when they came out with the Arockalypse, despite people hating them heavyily thinking they're Gwar ripoffs (which they aren't if you actually listen to the music). Anyways, ever since that album, something's been missing. The last two albums have just been bland in my opinion and lacked the heavy but catchy sound they had.

Been following them since their first album. I hate to say it but they have lost their way. The first couple of CDs were awesome. Very catchy. The last few are far from it. I still like Lordi; but no longer think they walk on water. Let's see how the new one turns out.

At first glance, it sounds a lot better than "Babez For Breakfast". Then again, spoons in a garbage disposal sounds better than that. They really did lose their way after "The Arockalypse", something about it just seems contrived ever since they hit it big. Maybe I'll give this one a go just to see if they managed to sneak in another "Blood Red Sandman".

That is weird, isn't it? Usually their keyboards aren't the centerpiece for a song.
