Lordi is set to release a new album titled “Scream Writers Guild” on March 31, a few weeks prior to the kick-off of the Babymetal/Sabaton package that they will be part of through Europe in April/May. I met Lordi when they opened for Nightwish in Stockholm back in 2004 and could present a pretty cool Lordi/Nightwish story in the SLICE 2005 issue. Pretty funny story too, I might blog about it some day. My friend photographer Michael Johansson met Lordi again later on and singer Tomi Putaansuu gladly posed with SLICE 2005 & 2006. I used a couple of those shots in the Pizza 2007 publication when Lordi had won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006. Good times.
