Finnish metal / hard rock group Lordi issued tenth full-length studio album Killection on January 31st, 2020 through AFM Records.
Mr. Lordi commented: “Killection is a fictional compilation album. It contains songs that Lordi would have written between the early 70s through the mid-90s. The compilation contains one ‘brand new’ song from 2019 as well, ’cause that’s somehow always typical for compilations.”
Killection marked the first Lordi album to feature bassist Hiisi, following the departure of predecessor Ox.

A music video was filmed for the track ‘I Dug A Hole In The Yard For You’. In addition, an official lyric video was created for the track ‘Like A Bee To The Honey’, featuring a guest saxophone solo from former Hanoi Rocks frontman Michael Monroe.
‘Like A Bee To The Honey’ was written by Kiss lead singer Paul Stanley together with Jean Beauvoir, and had been collecting dust in Beauvoir’s desk drawer since the late 80s.
Mr. Lordi stated: “This is a tremendous honour to a band that wouldn’t even exist without Kiss. Simply having the privilege to listen to a song from the 1980’s that no fan has ever heard before… and then to get to be the artist that brings the song for everyone to hear – it is mind-blowing.”
And as well, an official lyric video was created for the song ‘Shake The Baby Silent’.
