‘Tis the season where tons of holiday music gets blasted through the radio. Among these holiday tunes, one of the most popular tracks of the season is the Mariah Carey classic “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”
We think it is a catchy tune and don’t have much of a problem with it, but there are probably plenty of folks who want to celebrate the holidays by listening to metal, and not pop music. But what if we told you that this popular Christmas song received a metal remix?
If that is something that catches your attention, then you may want to check out the metalcore remix of “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by From Ashes To New. We have had a chance to listen to the track and we have to say, while the original is already a catchy song, this metal remix further enhances that catchiness.
Regarding this metal cover of the Mariah Carey song, band vocalist Matt Brandyberry shares the following: “We always thought it would be sick to cover a Christmas song, but never did. We had some extra studio time and thought this could be the chance. There were so many obvious choices for our style (‘The Grinch,’ ‘Nightmare Before Christmas,’ ‘Carol of the Bells,’ etc.) but we thought it would be so cool to put a dark spin on a light-hearted Christmas classic.
“It’s begun going viral across TikTok and we can’t wait until the whole world discovers it! If you love this, wait until you hear the original material we’ll be releasing in ‘23!”
