We present the Metsähovi Radio Observatory research related to BL Lacertae objects during the ENIGMA era. The Metsähovi BLO sample consists of 398 objects. For most of them, we have determined the spectral energy distribution (SED) using archival multi-frequency data. We fitted a parabolic function to the synchrotron component of the SEDs and calculated the synchrotron peak frequencies, ν_{peak}, of the sample sources. When we studied the correlations of ν_{peak} and the source luminosities on several wavelengths, we found that the peak luminosity does not depend on ν_{peak}, contrary to the blazar sequence scenario. We also give a summary of the BLO observing project at Metsähovi and the impending BLO data publication, and close with some plans for the future.
