A Twisted Christmas

Classic holiday carols reimagined as high-octane 80s metal anthems. Aggressive, playful, and surprisingly well-executed hair metal for a loud December.

It's exactly what you think it is: Christmas carols played by a band that wants to rock your face off.

A high-energy, tongue-in-cheek celebration that treats holiday cheer with heavy metal aggression.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way 'Oh Come All Ye Faithful' uses the exact rhythm and riff structure of 'We're Not Gonna Take It' to create a heavy metal hymn.

The sheer absurdity of Dee Snider snarling through 'I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus' with genuine rock and roll grit.

The lyrical overhaul of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas' into 'Heavy Metal Christmas' featuring 'no correlation to the original gifts' items like 'oz of ganja'.
