The second single, “RETROPOLIS”, out now!

The second single off the upcoming LIMITED DEADITION album is out now! This time the band takes the monstermaniacs on a trip to the city of RETROPOLIS. Read below what Mr. Lordi has to tell about the song.

"This title nearly became the name of the album," recalls Mr. Lordi. This title would pretty much sum up the context of the album: Musically it's all built around this main riff which was written by our guitar player Kone. It's very 'happy' sounding and has an almost U.D.O.'s 'Faceless World' album style to it. I was thinking of how to best build a vocal line around it, without making it sound totally cliché. This would be the main riff, so the song kind of wrote itself. Lyric wise, it's painting a picture of an 80ies feeling that shows like Knight Rider, Battlestar Galactica or Masters Of The Universe brought on. It's a very visually inspired song, bringing back the cover art of Iron Maiden's 'Somewhere In Time' in my brain. It doesn't really tell a story, it just gives off an overall 80ies post-apocalyptic vision in a way. That being said, I really miss those days. Everything was better back then... Everything was better in neon lights!!!"

We also got a new lyric video for the song, that encapsulates the ‘80s aesthetics perfectly. Listen to the song and watch the video right down below.
