...Do you think other countries will jump on the bandwagon for next year and get Hard Rock bands to represent them....? Just imagine.....

 

UK - Dragonforce or Iron Maiden

Germany - Rammstein or Tokio Hotel (a teenage German version of The Rasmus, only a hell of a lot better..)

Armenia - System of a Down (and they would qualify because they are ethnic Armenians, I believe Celine Dion represented France at one point, and she's Canadian born and bred....)

Finland - Children of Bodom, Finntroll, Tarja Teruenen or Ville Vallo (or maybe even a Tarja/Ville duet....)

Norway - Dimmu Borgir, Gothminster or Mortiis

Sweden - Opeth or The Haunted

Poland - Behemoth or Vader

Greece - Rotting Christ

Portugal - Moonspell

Italy - Lacuna Coil

Turkey - Melechesh

Austria - L'Ame Immortelle

Switzerland - The Young Gods or Celtic Frost

Holland - Within Temptation or After Forever

 

 

 

 

 

It would be great if Eurovision just turned into a Metal-fest :lol:

YES! :lol: Rammstein for Eurovision! :cheer:

I don't think it would happen, I think this is a one-off

I doubt it. It would only be funny once.

 

Look at the sales of the second Darkness album for proof.

Who said it was funny? :blink:

Who said it was funny? :blink:

 

The sing about 'thine Hard Rock Hallejujah', 'the arockalypse' and 'the day of Rockoning'.

They're dressed as orcs.

The keyboardist sings in a falsetto.

 

I think that's funny. I thought that was the point of it all.

I believe Celine Dion represented France at one point, and she's Canadian born and bred...

 

She represented Switzerland. She may have sung in French.

 

Lordi said in the press conference that they don't want any acts next year to copy them...I sincerely doubt there will be another heavy metal act next year...but I can see a rock act or two in it :-)

She represented Switzerland. She may have sung in French.

 

Well as a Québécoise i dont think the term 'she's Canadian born and bred...' sounds just about right, too much like saying 'he's american through and through' :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

 

anyway it seems that there's always a foreign person/group representing Switzerland, maybe its because you can make a noise there thats not many pop bands :lol:

 

maybe it willl be def leps turn next year? with the darkness for albania?

Turkey - Melechesh >> It must be "Chilekesh"

also Turkey has got 2 famous metal bands. Mezarkabul and Almora

 

Also Israel, who I'm living in, got a very good metal band called "Orphaned Land"

 

Btw I'm new in here, Hi all :)

I think you'll find that the keyboard player is actually female, so she does not sing in a 'falsetto', I think you'll find it is a 'soprano'.....

 

And Lordi aint no manufactured act, they've had two albums out in Finland and are very well known in Scandinavia. Typical Anglo-Saxon attitude, don't know sh*t about anything except for UK or America....

Fukk all these pretentious "Quebecoise", they're bloody Canadian..... They're such an arrogant bunch of fukkers as well, they kid on they cant speak English.....

 

I doubt it. It would only be funny once.

 

Look at the sales of the second Darkness album for proof.

 

Lordi are sod all like The Darkness, for one thing, they're nowhere near as irritating and they write better tunes; for another they've already had two albums out in Finland and are gaining in popularity....

Who said it was funny? :blink:

 

Exactly, I'll tell ya one thing, I can take Lordi far more seriously than that tw@t Daz Sampson.... Fancy naming your act after a washing powder.... :lol: :lol:

 

And he looks like some reject from a soap opera as well.....

 

And he looks like some reject from a soap opera as well.....

Then I dread to think what Lordi look like, naming themselves after Jesus and sticking an I on the end is a bit lame too. :rolleyes:

 

Actually they must be holy, Hard Rock Hallelujah :lol:

I didn't say they were manufactured. I said they were funny - which they are!

 

And I thought the keyboardist was a man. She sounded a bit shrieky so I assumed it was a man trying to sing in a high-pitched way. They were all covered in prosthetics so that's hardly my fault.

Well, one similarity is that they both sang about Hell and rock in recent songs: 'One Way Ticket' and 'Hard Rock Hallelujah'.

 

And I meant that a metal act at next year's ESC would not do as well as Lordi because the novelty would wear off. As it did between the two Darkness albums.

They were all covered in prosthetics so that's hardly my fault.

 

Well, I was able to tell..... :P :lol:

 

 

 

It's very much the 'in' thing at Eurovision at the moment. It was the Turkish sound the last few years and I expected this after Wig Wam last year
