ABR Wants You To Have A Very Metal Christmas This Year
Posted November 23, 2012
By username2,
When I first heard that August Burns Red was making a full-length Christmas album I immediatly said "when, where, and how much?" Now that I have my hands on a copy I can say that they certainly brought their A-game with this. The quality of the Christmas songs the band put out for the past couple of years is matched here now that they have 13 songs to tinker with. Every Christmas song has that ABR touch including something that appeared on the band's last album Leveler where all of a sudden a jazz-like part interrupts the metal for a few seconds. The band has even recorded 2 brand new instrumentals they wrote and they sound appropriatly ABR-ish. And yes, they have included all of the Christmas songs they released previously on here (all of them have been remastered.)
August Burns Red has brought us a Christmas album that is unlike other Christmas albums. They take classic Christmas songs and make them their own. This is a must own. View All Music And Book Reviews By username2 | View username2's Profile
