LORDI's 'Otus' Tonmi Lillman Passes Away At The Age Of 38 - Rest In Peace!


Another one of our Heavy Metal warriors has cease to exist. It has been confirmed by the Finish Heavy Metal band Lordi that their drummer 'Otus' Tonmi Lillman has passed away at the age of 38. Our condolences go to his family, friends, band-mates, and fans. Here is the bands official statement:

"Our dear friend and bandmate, 'Otus' Tonmi Lillman, has sadly passed away [at the age of 38]. He will be greatly missed and we send our condolences to his family and friends.

"Otus: we thank You from the bottom of our hearts for the short time we got to know you and spend with you together. Rest in peace, friend."

Due to the fact that the members of LORDI wear masks all the time in order to keep their personal identities private, Lillman's status as a member of LORDI had never been publicly acknowledged until now. Lillman joined Lordi in October of 2010 as the replacement from Kita, after Kita was fired. 'Otus' Tonmi Lillman will be missed by the entire Heavy Music community.
