Finnish hard rock monsters Lordi's two-month Lordiversitour across Europe is coming to an end this weekend, thereby closing the touring cycle in support of the group's latest studio offering Lordiversity (2021). But before their new era begins with the release of their Atomic Fire Records label debut in 2023, the quintet has an early (unholy) Christmas surprise for their fans today: a 2022 version of their iconic, Eurovision Song Contest winning hit song “Hard Rock Hallelujah,” featuring "Werwolf" Bürger Lars Dietrich.

Multi-talent Dietrich took part in this year's season of German prime TV show The Masked Singer dressed as a werewolf and won the audience by covering Lordi's most famous track. The performance made its way to the ears and eyes of Mr. Lordi himself who was so amazed that he wanted the "Werwolf" to join him and the rest of the Lordi horde live on stage – a dream that became reality at Backstage Werk in Munich, Germany as well as Essigfabrik in Cologne, Germany early last week where hundreds of fans witnessed this unique collaboration.

The new “Hard Rock Hallelujah” version can now be enjoyed by all those who couldn't attend the aforementioned surprise appearances at this location.

A portion of the track’s proceeds will be donated to support Ukraine.
