The band rose to fame in 2002 with their hit single "Would You Love a Monsterman?", and won the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 with their song "Hard Rock Hallelujah".
Lordi has toured and recorded actively since 2002, and Mr Lordi upgrades the band's costumes and masks for each album. The band has gone through several line-up changes with Mr Lordi being the only consistent member of the band since their foundation. Members of Lordi have stated their desire for their unmasked faces to remain private. However, they have made a number of unmasked appearances in several news outlets.Deadache (2008–2010)

The album's first single was called "Bite It Like a Bulldog", and it was published on 3 September 2008.Lordi announced before the release of the album that Deadache would be marketed internationally, like its immediate predecessor.
