To Beast Or Not To Beast was recorded last fall at WireWorld Studio in Nashville, TN with renowned producer Michael Wagener (METALLICA, OZZY OSBOURNE, SKID ROW, DOKKEN, RAVEN, MEGADETH). The CD marks the recording debut of Lordi’s new members, keyboardist Hella (replacing Awa) and drummer Mana (replacing Otus).
