I know I'm committing Christmas blasphemy, but if I hear Bing Crosby or Mariah Carey again, I'm going to scream. So why don't we do the best we can to counteract the inundation of tired old holiday music with some slightly more......aggressive selections.

I'm going to try and put 2 or 3 new Christmas/Holiday songs up a day. I don't want to put something up just to put it up, because sometimes it might just be bad. But I'm going to try to get you as much different Xmas stuff as possible.

We're going to start with August Burns Red today. According to their Wiki page, they're a metal-core christian band from Pennsylvania. I personally love these guys, and they have some of the more brutal breakdowns in their genre currently. Which makes it even more awesome that they do non-vocal covers of Christmas songs.

We started off with "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen". So let's do "Carol of the Bells" and finish with "O Come O Come Emmanuel."
