Lordi is a hard rock / heavy metal band from Finland, formed in 1996 by 'Mr. Lordi' of Rovaniemi, Finland. They're known for their monster costumes and lyrical themes. In the beginning of the 1990s, Mr. Lordi played in a small band from Rovaniemi. He left the band when the other members didn't agree with the introduction of theatrical elements and KISS-style rock.

The rest of the band members met each other for first time in 1996 in Stockholm, where they had gone to see KISS perform.

Wolfshead

We are Wolfshead. We are a hard rock band from Fleet, Hampshire, UK. We like to smash hard rock and doom together to create a delightful noise we like to call Garage Doom - high energy, groove, and screaming fuzzed-up riffs melting together amidst a blaze of burning rage. Imagine the sound of The Hellacopters, Goatsnake, Red Fang, and High on Fire, piled up in a stolen muscle car with Dopesmoker blasting out of the stereo, being driven into a brick wall at 100 miles per hour: a sonic explosion of colossal magnitude. Listen to our EP ‘Wolfshead’ and tell us you agree.

The Detours

There are two bands named ´The Detours´; one from Australia, and one from Scotland, living in harmony on opposite sides of the globe. ´THE DETOURS´ BAND FROM AUSTRALIA: The Detours are from the Blue Mountains just outside of Sydney, Australia. In 2005, Inspired by the saddening lack of 'roll' in the contemporary world of rock'n'roll, Josh Lynch and Robby Dalitz saw no morally justifiable option other than to create a band, a band that would inject the 'roll' back into forefront of our rock'n'roll imaginations.
