Come on now. You can't knock a popularity contest that has produced such winners as ABBA and Celine Dion!

The difference between Lordi and GWAR is that Lordi can actually play their instruments.
Blood Red Sandman and Hard Rock Hallelujah are my favorite Lordi tunes...

Right after KISS kicks GWAR's a$$es, right? ;-) Amen to that!

I'll bet my +5 bass guitar of harmony could deal some damage to those guys.
Now to find my 20-faced die...

Not my area of expertise... but my guess is that Satanists don't look like Satanists - if someone wants to do the work of Satan, he probably wants to look as unlike a Satanist as possible.

Yeah, he probably looks like quite a few televangelists...

Or Slymenstra.
They do have a new lineup not reflected in the promo shot that was posted with the article.
They dropped the Biker Kalma and the Valkrie Enary. Swapped 'em for Ox the Bull and Awa the Witch. Everyone else got a costume switch as well. Amen and Kita apparently were sweltering under their former duds and Lordi's suit weighed close to 70lbs.
The new album actually sounds a lot better than you'd think coming from folks in that kind of get up. Good writing with a slightly off English phraseology that is actually more of a plus than a minus.

What could they possibly have to hide that is worse than those pathetic costumes?

Good writing with a slightly off English phraseology that is actually more of a plus than a minus. I've really liked the work of some other Finnish groups, like In Flames for example. The remix of Cloud Connected is one of my faves.
