Hugh Platt has a strange relationship with Eurovision and metal; he once high-five’d two members of Lordi in the toilets at the Metal Hammer Awards. Wonder how he took the news that Susperia are throwing their hat into the ring?
Blackly-tinged Norwegian thrashy types, Susperia, have decided they want to represent Norway at the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest – so much so that they’ve hooked up with former-Dimmu Borgir (and, truth be told, former-Susperia) keyboard tinkler, Mustis, to write a song that that will appeal enough to the Norwegian public to choose them to represent them at the Eurovision finals in Germany next May.
But does anyone, y’know, actually give a shit about metal sticking it’s dick in Eurovision’s gaping song-hole anymore?
