August Burns Red Release Cover of “Santa Claus is Coming to Town”
August Burns Red hadn’t released a new song in a whole month, and that simply would not do. So now they’ve unveiled a cover of “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.”
I haven’t listened to it. I won’t listen to it. I refuse to keep participating in this “Christmas starts in November” bullcrap. Lemme get through Thanksgiving without using the carving knife to slaughter my entire family, then we can begin talking about the next thing. Okay?
Of course, some of you may not feel the way I do about listening to Christmas music on November fucking 12th. You’re free to check out the track below.
August Burns Red hit the road with Killswitch Engage and Light the Torch in late January, which I assume will be soon enough for them to release a cover of The Beach Boys’ “All Summer Long.” Here are the dates:
