Scarchives Vol. 1

Scarchives Vol. 1 is a CD+DVD digipak compilation from the Finnish band Lordi, released on September 3, 2012. It contains rare archive material from Lordi, and it was released to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of the band. The CD contains a previously unreleased studio album from 1997, Bend Over And Pray The Lord, and as a bonus tracks original version of "Get Heavy" (recorded in 1997) song and an additional unreleased song titled "Hulking Dynamo" from the Get Heavy recording sessions in 2002. The DVD includes a gallery of all unreleased merchandise from 2002 and the full video from Lordi's first concert in Helsinki in 2002, which can also be seen with commentary audio by Mr. Lordi. The DVD was edited by Lordi's former drummer Otus.

The compilation was exclusively released in Rokkikauppa-webstore only, limited to 500 copies and it is seen as a rare collectors' item amongst Lordi fans. The fans who pre-ordered the compilation also got Lordi's very rare anniversary plectrum free of charge. That pick has not been sold separately.
