    Finally a christmas thread where I can answer with passion: August Burns Red - Flurries

    Volume: 11/10

    It’s an instrumental, but nobody in their right mind would claim that it’s anything but a Christmas song.

    It’s only a Christmas song in context, but In Our World from Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas popped into my head a couple days ago.
