Lordi took some time off their summer tour of Finland to be in the UK. They were signing CDs at a Central London record store, went to Kerrang Magazine’s 25th anniversary party in London, and Metal Hammer’s Golden Gods Awards even if the weather in London was extremely hot and the monsters were literally melting inside the hot club venues. They also performed at the biggest heave metal festival in the UK, Download.

Lordi are now busy touring Finland.
