Amerakin Overdose’s shock-metal version of “Feliz Navidad” shows both chaos and joy
Amerakin Overdose has always pushed the limits of what is normal, and their new holiday song “Feliz Navidad” proves that Christmas can be loud and theatrical. The group, from Portland and known for its industrial/nu-metal bravado and unique masked performance art, turns a holiday classic beloved by many into a thrilling, chaotic, and utterly original version.
Produced by Jonny Santos, with co-production by Nikolas Roy Quemtri, it’s a new version that covers the original. Fans have been begging for a Christmas single for years, so this band chose the one carol that everyone knows. “Feliz Navidad” becomes a performance art piece and a seasonal satire, all wrapped up in a distorted gift box. The band knows that holiday music, like heavy music, is meant to be felt.
This version takes the season back for the outcasts, the loud, and the free-spirited artists. Amerakin Overdose shows that the holiday spirit doesn’t have to be friendly, polite, or full of red velvet bows. Sometimes it bellows, sometimes it walks across the stage, and sometimes it adds metallic industrial glitter to Christmas. This is holiday cheer that has been turned up, broken down, and performed without shame.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
