Amerakin Overdose’s shock-metal version of “Feliz Navidad” shows both chaos and joy

Amerakin Overdose

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.
