Lordi announce new album ‘Limited Deadition’

December 13, 2024 James Weaver

LORDI have announced a new album!

Titled Limited Deadition, the upcoming album from the Finnish hard rock band is the follow-up to last year’s Screem Writers Guild, and is scheduled to be released in March next year, via Reigning Phoenix Music.

Recorded at IluSound Studio and Finnvox Studios in Helsinki, the upcoming album was produced by vocalist Mr Lordi, mixed by Ilkka Herkman, and mastered by Pauli Saastamoinen. The theme of the album lies in Mr Lordi‘s lifelong obsession with collecting, inspired by the action figures and toys of his childhood. “The album topic of 80s toys is actually just a loose theme, but it’s been accompanying me since I was little. I’ve always been a collector of various stuff, and I’m even some kind of a hoarder. I can’t even remember which my first own toy was, but my obsession basically started with Muppet Show dolls, followed by Star Wars and E.T. figures, with the latter actually being my favourite movie of all time.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, LORDI have released a new song from the upcoming album; Syntax Terror.

Speaking about the new single, Mr Lordi shares, “the writing of this song started out with its main keyboard riff. I played around with those mono sounds, trying to come up with something with a very 80s action movie opening score feel. Syntax Terror actually almost became the album title, but then it was discovered that other people have had the same idea way before I did. On the verses I was thinking of JUDAS PRIEST, on the chorus of MANOWAR and – as icing on the cake – Udo Dirkschneider-type of screams to belch out the title. Don’t ask what the lyrics are about. ‘yntax Terror is a very 80s heavy metal style song, painting abstract pictures with every line!”
