It just works so well. Recontextualizes the lyrics very well. The fire [of civilisation] might be dying, and this entire struggle may be nothing but a long goodbye, but as long as we got each other we are still standing. We still have a reason to. And let it snow all it wants.
The idea of kissing goodnight, but with gas masks involved, breaks my heart a little. There isn't really hope here, but love and endurance. Beautifully done.
Some people think you fight depression with hope. Those of us who have lived through it know better. You fight depression with survival, and this rendition perfectly captures that. Bravo.
Yeah, crazy how well everything fits. Sure, snow -> nuclear winter, but what about all the other winter/Christmas stuff? Fire? Frightful weather? Low light? It's surprisingly perfect.

I'm always amazed how these old songs hold up to remakes and style-swaps. It's also impressive how these old, generally happy songs give such a depressed, defeated fell when given this treatment. I wouldn't be surprised if this cut ended up in an end-of-the-world type movie. You guys are amazing at this!
It’s like The Police’s “Every Breath You Take”, though that one’s misinterpreted apparently. I will bring that one up because it’s so upbeat sounding it nearly masks how screwed up the lyrics are. Like the Barbie song by Aqua. I thought it was a happy advertisement about Barbie when it’s about objectification. There’s plenty of “happy” songs like Rudolph that their proses are just messed up. Getting by because no one pays attention to the lyrics all that much. I wouldn’t be surprised if the songs were supposed to be depressing or sad, though.
@@ByTheStorm I just can't get over the beginning of Rudolph. Yes, if I know all the other reindeer I'm going to to recall the most famous of them all. That lyric makes no sense at all.
The hollow shallowness that is laid bare once it goes awry? With the fire dying representing the breakdown when since there’s basically nothing really bringing them together besides the distribution of material goods made in factories by horribly paid workers, they depart into the ether never to speak to each other again? - In hindsight, I’ve never experienced a holiday season that wasn’t based around materialism and once I realized how shallow XMas actually is? I couldn’t take it seriously anymore. Why does the holiday season have to be about materialism and lording that over the less fortunate they can buy more? Or there’s lying to children about an idol every year, eliminating the intimacy for idolatry which makes me unable to take conservative Christians seriously when they whine about the holiday. There hasn’t been anything resembling what Jesus would approve of. Not all those fools who killed each other for a PS3 or trample each other over crap that isn’t on sale.
@@ByTheStorm I was more thinking that back when winter festivals first became a thing, the winter was a lot more dangerous, similar to the implied apocalypse in the video. As such, the idea of just wanting to be with loved ones and know they're safe inside was a more major thing.
There's more content and story concept in this cover than in most modern sci-fi series. Wish this could be heard by some director in search for a good season finale's soundtrack. Che bomba.
I had like some sirens, far away at these unholy night, which make the Background clear that Not every child comes back outta such a unfriendly and disturbed silent night. By the way, nice Work at all 🤘 good Bless you and Happy xmas 😘
Man.. I was in a band ten or so years ago, and this sound is the closest thing I’ve heard that was close to our genre. Wish I could’ve had this answer back then when I tried to explain what we sounded like..
The setting you came up with for this would make a really neat short horror game. Imagine being stuck in a bunker with freezing temperatures outside, rations running out, and you're not sure how long it'll be before it's safe to go out again... I should do that. I've been considering different options to make a first game to learn Godot. Maybe this could be it.
I swear to god these dudes know something about the futute. also: why is this video exactly 4:20? also also: as always a really awesome Cover with great spin in it!
Greetings from Ukraine! I'll do my best to make this song our national anthem after the nuclear apocalypse! (if not turn into a shadow on the wall, of course)
Non suona più post rock che prog? Comunque ragazzi è carezza per le mie orecchie, già pregusto di farla diventare il tormentone della sera della vigilia 😂❤

I can't BELIEVE how well this works. You guys killed it!

Reminds me of Romantically Apocapyptic... what a great webcomic it was!

Love the spin you put on this classic. It's amazing how well the lyrics lend themselves to a post-apocalyptic reading.
Yeah, crazy how well everything fits. Sure, snow -> nuclear winter, but what about all the other winter/Christmas stuff? Fire? Frightful weather? Low light? It's surprisingly perfect.
Let that ash and dust fall
... and we'll wake up to them...
Finally, a christmas song I don't despise lol
I suggest you look for Cthulhu carols. Even if you don't know what Cthulhu is, you could like the lyrics. ;)
Absolutely accurate!

These guys also covered 'Last Christmas'.
@@Dukkha-Bhavana Yeah, I guess I forgot.
"Hey...do you wanna build a snowman?"
"If we go out there, we're gonna die."
"...Yeah."

you've made the lyrics sound incredibly sad and beautiful at the same time. And I love the final arrangement. Let it snow!
The fire is slowly dying, my dear we’re still good-byeing…
That bass line in the 0:39 is so filthy and dirty my gods. I mean that in a good way. Its so godsdamn heavy i love it.
Yes more songs for my winter depression list that gets me through these horribly long scandinavian winters.
You always manage to come up with the most creative and tonally inverted interpretations of the existing lyrics, and they still work. It's incredible.
The quiet bit is so eerie! Love the mood of the whole thing 🩶
I got here as quickly as I could
No rush. Gotta give it time for the fallout to dissipate.
In a certain sense, this reflects the true meaning of christmas.
The hollow shallowness that is laid bare once it goes awry? With the fire dying representing the breakdown when since there’s basically nothing really bringing them together besides the distribution of material goods made in factories by horribly paid workers, they depart into the ether never to speak to each other again?

These brothers definitely know how to make such a pretty happy song into the dark depression!😅 Love it!🖤✨
new Melodicka cover as my birthday gift: that's amazing 🎂❄️🖤
Happy Birthday!
That´s so nice
what a brilliant reimagining 🏆 love the lore!
A whole new meaning. Well done. Love it.
Ooh, I have a new favorite Christmas song!
Praise the algorithm. A new artist (for me) to follow.
The harmonies!!
Wow!!! Incredible
First chord totally had MASH vibes
There's more content and story concept in this cover than in most modern sci-fi series. Wish this could be heard by some director in search for a good season finale's soundtrack. Che bomba.
I really love your sad versions of songs. Still listen "dont worry be happy" too
Wow. I will never think of this song in the same way ever again.
This is honestly so incredible, i had chills throughout
Love the fresh approach to a classic. Definitely unique and intriguing.
Love. The last thing to survive.
Incredible execution of a wild concept. Well done, bros. Very well done!
Merry Christmas, guys!
Hauntingly beautiful 🥲😍
I had like some sirens, far away at these unholy night, which make the Background clear that Not every child comes back outta such a unfriendly and disturbed silent night.
By the way, nice Work at all 🤘 good Bless you and Happy xmas 😘
Bass fan here 😍
As a student who currently works on his degree in prog rock, I will kindly judge the progy-ness of this new masterpiece
That's my taste in Christmas 🤘
Damn, that was beautiful. I’ll have to play this again if I get some snow this year.
That was kind of cool. 🌨🌨❄
Yikes, this one is chilly. Love it love it love it!
Un grand et joyeux Noël. J'adore vos interprétations.
Des complots perso et faites en de la pub. Vous merveilleux
Merci LES Créateurs
I like this. Thank you
Beautifully done
So... we definitely need a new Die Hard chapter.
Nicely done. My brother sent me this. I’ll be checking out more.
Perfect describe of my winter holidays mood. 🤗🤗🤗
You’ve really *blown* it out of the park with this one
Man.. I was in a band ten or so years ago, and this sound is the closest thing I’ve heard that was close to our genre. Wish I could’ve had this answer back then when I tried to explain what we sounded like..
i LOVE this but now i can't help but want to hear a (fallout version) 1950's version of this
Fallout season 2 looking good so far.
Niiiiiiice! Exactly what I expected when saw title. Really good job. Thank you
the fire is sure delightful
the nuclear fire that is
Thats a Masterpiece
Perfecto para el libro Metpo de Dimitri Glukovsky
Peak Metro vibes
Also Stalker.
Love it ❤
Amazing! 👌🖤
Bravissimi❤
Okay, I need a nuclear winter wonderland album now.
All the snow!
i absolutely love this!!
Good hunting, stalkers.
Beautiful! Happy Christmas! 🎄🎄
Wow! Nicely done!
Best Xmas present ever!!!
My new X-mad anthem
Feeling this too deeply now resonating in my soul.
This is such a good cover! Deeply enchanting. Love your work, guys. Keep up! 🤟
Wow.
That's not snow, it's radioactive fallout!
Such talent, guys. And such resilience. Beautiful.
The setting you came up with for this would make a really neat short horror game. Imagine being stuck in a bunker with freezing temperatures outside, rations running out, and you're not sure how long it'll be before it's safe to go out again...
I should do that. I've been considering different options to make a first game to learn Godot. Maybe this could be it.
That lore though
Such a smart arrangement
Im so going to share this after a volcanoes eruption scene in DND. I have to because it's awesome
That wouldn't at all feel out of place on a Pain of Salvation album. Fantastic stuff!
Man, this is a good one...!
Wonderful!
7/10 song isnt 10min+ long
😜
Our probable future in 10-15 years
LET IT BURN :)
Ваааааау круууууто
I read "Let it go" and stood very confused for a solid minute
greetings from 2044! it's a party (the dystopian kind!) but we have snacks and stuff. and we're all cyborgs now
Great job, guys.
Someone has to play this over Titan Cocijo detonating in Elite Dangerous.
Just a reminder, be sure to include a SAD lamp in your fallout shelter.
Let it radioactive snow?)
Seasonal depression is worse than ever!
ah, cool, Nuclear winter, that's why it's snowing... :'(
should be added to the soundtrack of "The Road"
Theme song for the next Fallout game? lol
I swear to god these dudes know something about the futute.
also: why is this video exactly 4:20?
also also: as always a really awesome Cover with great spin in it!
Is this coming to iTunes? Went to buy, but didn’t see it.
Greetings from Ukraine!
I'll do my best to make this song our national anthem after the nuclear apocalypse! (if not turn into a shadow on the wall, of course)
Шикарно передает атмосферу зимы в Москве и в России в целом. Охуенно.🤘🤘🤘
Non suona più post rock che prog? Comunque ragazzi è carezza per le mie orecchie, già pregusto di farla diventare il tormentone della sera della vigilia 😂❤
Toss a coin to your santa.
