Crazy Toads – Christmas Day Everyday (Track Review)
A Christmas song comes to you with heavy rock guitars and almost Goth vocals to welcome Santa Claus! The band has some roots in the Post-Punk/Goth scene during the 1980s, so this track from 2022 is a combination of their musical roots and their present status. The orchestration includes both traditional Christmas bells and the basic bass-guitar-drums recipe of the Post-Punk, which transforms the song into a cool rock track with an atmosphere of celebration. Regarding musical influences, I can feel that the track is mainly influenced by 1980s music, including bands such as The Sisters Of Mercy, Stranglers and Madness. For those who are Playlist curators and want to find thematic music for their Playlists on Spotify, the track is angry, funny, enthusiastic, and celebrative. If the real Santa Claus (yes, we believe in Santa!) used this song as a soundtrack, he would probably look a little unusual for modern-day stereotypes, but who cares? Christmas Day is every day!
