Not exactly ABBA...

Finnish monster-mask-wearing headbangers Lordi have won this year's Eurovision Song Contest. In what is quite possibly the finest winning strategy ever attempted by a Eurovision contestant, the band's lead singer "Mr. Lordi" said the group's plan for the final was to "scream louder. And turn the amps up."

Fuckin' A.

Finnish headbanger or escapee from the Weta Workshop "Bad Orc" room?
You make the call!
