Monster band has Finland fretting over face it shows, from the International Herald Tribune. Excerpt:
"In Finland, we have no Eiffel Tower, few real famous artists, it is freezing cold and we suffer from low self-esteem," said Lordi, who has horns protruding from his face mask and sports black fingernails 15 centimeters, or 6 inches, long. ...
But not everyone in the country views the monster squad as un-Finnish. Some Finns say Lordi is right at home, and that its use of flaming dragon-encrusted swords and exploding baby dolls express the warrior spirit of the Vikings.
