Ah, Christmas. That most wonderful time of the year when the Metal Storm Staff is locked up in their sacred Staff Towers, totally focused on picking this year's nominees for the MS Awards - a Herculean undertaking which usually involves a lot of bitching and moaning and drawing guns at each other. Isn't Christmas just magical?

Anyway, have some schnapps on the house, and enjoy this holiday edition of the Greatest Metal Video Ever... Series!



Medeia - Antichristmas

Everybody and their mom knows that Christmas is just as metal as Jari Mäenpää is the most reliable person in the entire scene... which is why Medeia released the most anti-cliche, anti-fluffy, and batshit insane anti-Christmas video in the history of time and space... which is why there'll be no presents for Christmas for them. Ha!





Reuben - Christmas Is Awesome

It's Christmas time and time for a carol! After all, a metalhead who doesn't like karaoke is like Metallica not releasing a good album... simply not imaginable.





Corey Taylor - X-M@$

Talking about sing along songs...

Sir Corey Taylor is without a single doubt the most charismatic frontman of one of the most influential metal bands of the last decade. And as most of you know, the Slipknot/Stone Sour head honcho is also a very eloquent and sophisticated man, as this video so clearly illustrates. The essence of Mr. Taylor's Christmas message: getting sloshed... cuz isn't that what X-M@$ is all about??





(Un)Happy Holidays!
