Lordi - Bringing back the balls to Rock

I don't know if any of the nu metal kids will get this one but anybody who rocked out in the golden era of 80's metal will love it.

Lordi have a great sound - very retro, but it works in a modern world and their outfits are awesome. Super cheesy, over the top, Gwar inspired, latex, rubber monster kitch! That's what metal is all about - not all this emo, I'm so sad, nobody understands me bollox!

The title says it all - rock and metal have lost a lot of balls over the last few years and it's time to bring 'em back. Let's get back to the true rebeliouse spirit of metal...long hair, denim and leather, lots of beer, pissing on passing dogs, disregard for authority, Maiden T-shirts, speaker trashing volumes, air guitar hero's, a few more beers and a bottle of Jack, studded jackets covered in badges and patches - you know...the good stuff!

I love the one verse in this song...We are the SMF's, we are the youth gone wild... I suppose only us old schoolers who were there would understand it and catch all the references but even the youngest nu banger would ewnjoy the song!
