The drummer of the band Finland's Lordi, Tonmi Lillman, better known as Otus (creature in Finnish), has died at age 38


This was reported the group's official Web site, in a moving text written in English. In this, the members of Lordi indicate that "sorely missed" his "dear friend and colleague" and sent his condolences to the family of drums.

We thank you for the time we spent with you "Otus, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts by the time we spent with you. Rest in peace," he added in the note, which is signed by Lordi, Amen, Ox and Awa and is situated below a picture of Tonmi Lillman wearing his suit 'slaughter'.

The heavy band Lordi became world famous after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006. Since then they have made two European tours and two other U.S. and have visited Japan and New Zealand, where he got stage fright with his bellowing monsters and costumes.

Otus joined the band in 2010, after in October of that year, the original drummer Kita, announced he was leaving the band, so it was with the group a year and some months.
