Yep! Dustin is an amazing guitarist. He even learned Paul Waggoner's solo (of Between the Buried and Me) for their song Everlasting Ending for the Found in Far Away Places tour! I was there to see him do it live. He made it look so easy.
@@JeremiahFernandez not only can he play, but he's written 1 or 2 songs on each record, rationalist, salt and light, carbon copy, lifeline, to name a few
They've really nailed down their sound with the last few albums. It's cool how they put in a lot of effort to keep things interesting (like this video)
Dustin could be the lead guitarist in any metal core band that’s out there. I’m glad he still writes guitar riffs though for ABR even though he’s the bassist. Merry Christmas!
Two of my best friends died around Thanksgiving and New Years, right around when this came out too. Every time I hear this song I choke up, especially at that outro riff.
I love how this band is all about projecting it's talent as individuals. They are all so good, and you can tell they not only respect one another as musicians but as humans as well. They love one another. I hope ABR goes on until they are old and grey. Top quality music and top quality human beings. Keep metal alive.
I got so excited when he got his guitar and how nice of Santa to set it all up for him! Man this video made me so happy! How fucking cheery out-god-damn-standing boys I just wanna open presents and jam
YO this gave me the FEELS! Love every one of yalls crimbus albums and this just as well! Always BLAST it and I did here too albums keep it up!! LOVED the close ups on the strings was MESMERIZED
I remember listening to these guys in buddy's basement with the whole crew. Those days are long since past. Here's to the friends we'll make in future. I wish them well. You know who you are fellas
Ive probably listen to this like 100 times. Ive been a huge ABR red fan since Thrill Seeker. I love there Christmas stuff. Its Christmas songs i can actually enjoy during the holiday
I'm jumping the gun by playing this before November, but I just don't care. Such a jam. And before you know it the holiday season will be here and my neighbors will get to enjoy this at full blast just like last year lol
I cannot explain it. Not only is this my favorite Christmas song but one of my all-time favorite songs. It touches something deep in my soul and brings me joy every time I hear it. Thank you ABR!
Chivokroy I saw JB on the street the last time I saw them and yelled “JB!” and gave him a high five. I really wish I had yelled, “hey guys, it’s Jake!”
After years trying to find it, remembering the band that made my teenage days better between 2009 and 2014, seeing how you guys evolved gives me so much joy~ Really love it!
Finally! A Christian band that goes prog! ABR stepping up their game and working hard. Showing that prog is achievable by other bands who’s sound might be going stale and dying out.
This bands drive, determination,and perseverance is absolutely amazing. Whatever you do in life if you have those 3 characteristics youll be just fine :)
Let be known in the permanent records of mankind, only the greatest of forese’ers could hear… what would eventually be known as the greatest song of all time. Truly the song to Unite humanity written by the Creator himself through the vessels of humans!
Parkway Drive: Metalcore is dead
August Burns Red: Hold my christmas tree...
Hold my eggnog
wtf is wrong with Parkway Drive
i wouldn't even say that this song was metalcore... it's just a christmas song like they do every year..
@@JackieSt I love the band but I just can't enjoy their new stuff. Ire wasn't even bad but their latest was just, not for me.
@@AscentToZenith I don't know much of their music, sorry. It's just, saying "Metalcore is dead" is so damn stupid ^^
Christmas is not the same without a ABR song.
Dasayeve Xavier I can only listen to Christmas songs through ABR bro I’m right there with ya
Yoooo..really tho that’s facts on facts on facts
Christmas Burns Red....the most wonderful time of year!
4:27 = beautiful!
Best part. Replayed it over & over. Still do.
I thought that was a sound effect, seeing it played on guitar was like 😳🤘
"What's a riff?"
"Hey guys, it's Jake"
LMFAO. I love these guys.
Lmao
When the bass player is a better guitar player than most guitarists out there...
holy shit that was the bass player?
@@JeremiahFernandez yea he's phenomenal.. he has a pop punk side project called Best Case Scenario that he played everything for. Worth checking out!
@@knoxmcconnell4179 that is awesome man. i _kinda_ knew abr's bassist could play guitar, but not at this level
Yep! Dustin is an amazing guitarist. He even learned Paul Waggoner's solo (of Between the Buried and Me) for their song Everlasting Ending for the Found in Far Away Places tour! I was there to see him do it live. He made it look so easy.

Because a simple playthrough isn't enough for ABR..great job guys!
Haha yes, I love the style of this video but also the song is amazing. Gives me warm metal feelings.
ABR deserves a billion views. This band is so unique and creative. Talent gifted from the Creator of music for sure.
THAT BASS IS STUNNING HOLY CRAP WHAT A PLAYTHROUGH
wowwww🤘
It makes me so happy to see Dustin getting his own video.
They've really nailed down their sound with the last few albums. It's cool how they put in a lot of effort to keep things interesting (like this video)
Chris B Check out Messengers and Constellations. You’ll thank me later
Getchu lol thanks for the rec but I’ve been on this shit for years XD. Constellations is probably my favorite ABR record
Chris B did u hear messengers?
Dear Santa: for this Christmas i want the world peace and lots of BREAKDOWNS! Thank you 🎄🎁 God bless ABR
i want less breakdowns next year than I had this year
ABR simply has the best breakdowns without a doubt.
I don’t know how but everything ABR puts out is just pure gold
Xathairst Xxx best band in metal
Thats why they are the best band ever.
Holy shit that guitar is gorgeous.
I love abr style of music they bring a sense of freshness to the scene
Most wonderful time of the year, always coming back to this one on Xmas, 2023 anyone?
It’s that time of year again folks!
The build in this song is immaculate as always, pure perfection from ABR.
Christmas wouldn't hurt without it ABR
When a band's bassist is a better guitarist than you...
Another good example of that is adam nolly getgood from periphery. He was their bass player but is also an amazing guitar player.
He can do it all
@@Aconn1997 He tones as Amazing
haha...
He might secretly be the best metalcore guitarist
What a way to wake up to fresh snow.
boxcpl no better way tan to start with an ABR winter/Christmas song
Christmas is around the corner. I wish u all have a blessed 🎄🎄🎄...
With love.. from Malaysia
God bless..
2023
You too homie!
I can't tell how much beautiful this is. It's just delightful & amazing 💯❤❤❤
december burn red! great how ever
The best melody ever, hands down...
Christmas in June
It is that time of year again
Dustin could be the lead guitarist in any metal core band that’s out there. I’m glad he still writes guitar riffs though for ABR even though he’s the bassist. Merry Christmas!
Two of my best friends died around Thanksgiving and New Years, right around when this came out too. Every time I hear this song I choke up, especially at that outro riff.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard
Magic... just pure magic ❤️🤙🏻
it is one thing to be able to play this well. It an entirely different thing to be able to write this AND play this well. my mind is blown.
Jesus Dustin! That transition from hill to fill @1:31 literally makes me cry every time I listen to this song
Tears of joy.
I love how this band is all about projecting it's talent as individuals. They are all so good, and you can tell they not only respect one another as musicians but as humans as well. They love one another. I hope ABR goes on until they are old and grey. Top quality music and top quality human beings. Keep metal alive.
Do you ever just feel really unmotivated and feel like shit then all of a sudden your favorite band puts out one of the most joyful EPs ever.
august has burned red, and now its almost time for their 2nd Christmas album!
4:26-4:36 SOOOO DAAAAMN SMOOOOOTH! Love it!
I think I have a neck injury from holiday headbanging for 5 minutes straight, thanks guys!
😲❤ Christmas has officially started. Much love lads
It has today, 2020🎄
I love the beginning so much
Been saying for the last decade. Greatest metal band around.
Will be Christmas theme of 2018 hands down.
Great job guys.
All I want for Christmas is the correct tab on ultimate guitar for this song.
I love how beautiful, yet aggressive, abr can be all at the same time.
FINALLY!!! There is no Xmas without August Burns Red \m/
Who else is ready for another ABR Christmas! I love this friggin song!!
I got so excited when he got his guitar and how nice of Santa to set it all up for him! Man this video made me so happy! How fucking cheery out-god-damn-standing boys I just wanna open presents and jam
Their riffs make me smile
This song makes my heart smile.
Just get another bassist and have three guitarist. Absolutely amazing.
YO this gave me the FEELS!
Love every one of yalls crimbus albums and this just as well! Always BLAST it and I did here too albums keep it up!!
LOVED the close ups on the strings was MESMERIZED
Yasheek got me right in the feels too bro
Elf 1: "We need to get Santa?! We only have six weeks until Christmas!"
Elf 2: "DON'T EVER INTERRUPT SANTA WHILE HE SHREDS!"
This is the best Kiesel commercial I've seen.
I remember listening to these guys in buddy's basement with the whole crew. Those days are long since past. Here's to the friends we'll make in future. I wish them well. You know who you are fellas
Its July and i cant wait to play this on repeat
It's February and I'm still listening to this...
These guys continue to give me so much hope, every single time. Thank you guys for continuing to make great music. You guys are a light in this world.
Absolutely amazing!!!
My baby fell asleep to this. Thanks
Ive probably listen to this like 100 times. Ive been a huge ABR red fan since Thrill Seeker. I love there Christmas stuff. Its Christmas songs i can actually enjoy during the holiday
1st Dec 2020, the start to Christmas. A difficult year for many, but ABR gets the Christmas spirit going
I will be playing this to my classroom all day!
what do you teach?
Same here! ironically I myself teach metal shop \m/
Hah I teach sixth graders and have played their metal Christmas tunes in the past. I'll be busting these out this year!
I'm jumping the gun by playing this before November, but I just don't care. Such a jam. And before you know it the holiday season will be here and my neighbors will get to enjoy this at full blast just like last year lol
Truly a special band, God bless these guys
That "Christmas Morning" interlude😍
I cannot explain it. Not only is this my favorite Christmas song but one of my all-time favorite songs. It touches something deep in my soul and brings me joy every time I hear it. Thank you ABR!
Always smooth to my ears and that sweep though! Never gets old ho ho ho ho
Damn, Dustin is amazing on electric guitar!
He wrote 2 songs on Phantom Anthem (lifeline/carbon copy). He's an awesome musician.
@@breninbrooks3045 he also plays lead guitar whenever they perform Everlasting Ending live
0:59 This is where the fun part begins 🤘❤️
Every time I watch this it tickles me to see that they've fully embraced the "Hey guys, it's Jake." joke! XD
Chivokroy I saw JB on the street the last time I saw them and yelled “JB!” and gave him a high five. I really wish I had yelled, “hey guys, it’s Jake!”
This is the most wholesome song I've heard by them. So bloody talented.
Dustin has come a long way. The dude never stops amazing me. Can kill it now on the drums, guitar, bass, and vocals. What a guy!
For those of you who still don't know
The person playing in this playthrough is Jake!
Not just an Xmas song it's an all year round song... 🤙
Thank you ABR for always being in my life when times are rough! You Djentalmen are are all Amazing!
Absolutely a masterpiece... amazingness.
Merry Christmas to all! Despite it being a Christmas song, I listen to it all the time!
this is pure passion sound
Just always incredible. Never stop guys
This is absolutely beautiful!
It may be November, but we're out here getting the Christmas vibe!
Dustin straight up gave us the D. love his songwriting!! the leads on the 3 new songs are amazing! Merry early Christmas!
one of my favorites so far!
One of the things I’m excited for christmas is because of ABR’s christmas musics
I hope you guys make more of these
So much emotion into just a Christmas song. Thanks for providing and continuing to produce some of the best metal out there.
After years trying to find it, remembering the band that made my teenage days better between 2009 and 2014, seeing how you guys evolved gives me so much joy~
Really love it!
The only Christmas music I like!!! Finally!!
Anyone else thought it was a 12 string guitar at 0:59?
Yuup
Nothing screams Christmas like ABR Christmas!!
A new soundtrack to my Christmas routine. See you soon in Frankfurt! Please keep it up!
Another christmas with this amazing song
If this breakdown doesn’t give you some sort of chills then ABR just isn’t for you. 1:25-2:05
Finally! A Christian band that goes prog! ABR stepping up their game and working hard. Showing that prog is achievable by other bands who’s sound might be going stale and dying out.
beautiful song ..
This bands drive, determination,and perseverance is absolutely amazing. Whatever you do in life if you have those 3 characteristics youll be just fine :)

what would eventually be known as the greatest song of all time.
Truly the song to Unite humanity written by the Creator himself through the vessels of humans!
The breakdowns that keep on giving!
15 years and I still feel refreshed when they play breakdowns \m/
That was actually beautiful
...wow just...wow. If there's one group you can count on shredding Christmas, it's ABR. This is incredible
