But its Lemmy's whiskey-soaked voice that makes this version sound like it was recorded while the trio was full of Christmas "spirits." "Run, Rudolph, Run" is now a Christmas standard, played by everyone from Chuck Berry to Keith Richards, Billy Idol, Sheryl Crow and Cee Lo. Gibbons, Dave Grohl – ‘Run, Rudolph, Run’ 4, while Dio delivers a performance nothing less than operatic. Iommi turns in riffs heavy enough for Vol. It's a testament to the power of the Sabbath that even the centuries-old "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" is turned from an amicable carol to a crushing tune with the slightest rearrangement. Dio with Tony Iommi – ‘God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen’.Could it be King Diamond became a Satanist because Santa skipped his house when he was a little boy? "No Presents for Christmas" opens with a Muzak-style rendering of a few Christmas classics before King Diamond tears the whole thing apart with demonic laughter. King Diamond – ‘No Presents for Christmas’.Or are they admitting that despite their lust for blood, they also like gingerbread cookies? It's open for interpretation.
On "Viking Christmas," the melodic death-metal band Amon Amarth make an argument against revisionist Christian history. turn into a menacing serial-killer freakout. But their most generous gift to the holidays has to be their cover of Lock, Shock and Barrel's Nightmare Before Christmas chant-along "Kidnap the Sandy Claws," which Jonathan Davis and Co. Nicholas" (which they bastardized into the sophomoric throwaway track "Christmas Song"). Over the course of the nu-metal progenitors' 20-year career, they've put their downtuned spin on "Jingle Bells" (reimagined as the death-metal-ish "Jingle Balls") and the classic holiday poem "A Visit from St. On "We Three Kings," the metal god calls out to the Judeo-Christian one as only a metal legend can.Īs well as kilts, dreadlocks and baggy pants, Korn's list of favorite things apparently also includes the Yuletide season. Judas Priest's Rob Halford loves Christmas so much that his third solo album, Halford 3: Winter Songs, is composed entirely of Christmas songs. For "Silent Night" (in German!) they put the swords away but keep the crescendoes - a finale fit for a king. They have any number of songs about medieval combat that start quietly, only to build to an explosive, face-melting climax. The funny part is they aren't too far off from the guys who are being serious. Spinal Tap – ‘Christmas With the Devil’Ī giant Santa skull, Harry Shearer in leather pants with a devil’s tail, and a three-way solo: Must be a Spinal Tap Christmas.
His voice rumbling sepulchrally, Peter Steele sighs over dearly departed friends and family, while still keeping tongue firmly planted in cheek: "My table's been set for but seven/Just last year I dined with eleven." Don't miss the song's humorously somber quotes of "Carol of the Bells" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" – nor the awesome fan-created video the tune inspired.
Type O Negative – ‘Red Water (Christmas Mourning)’īrooklyn's finest gothic-metal sourpusses are haunted by ghosts of Christmas past on this typically glum and gloomy dirge.Who would have guessed that Twisted Sister, the band that shocked households in the Eighties and went toe-to-toe against the Parents Music Resource Center, would release something as wholesome as a Christmas album? Surprisingly, the band played it relatively straight on "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." Twisted Sister – ‘I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus’.On “Mistress for Christmas,” he asks Santa for a little side action, and from the fun that he sound likes he’s having, he was definitely on the “naughty” list that year.
