As a Jew, I don’t believe in Christmas or the Devil. However, I do believe in heavy metal, as well as great comedy, and in this “arena,” Spinal Tap are gods!

The simple fact is that “Christmas With The Devil” is the best Christmas song ever written. Sure, “Little Drummer Boy” and “White Christmas” are joyous and spirited tunes, but where are the monster riffs? Where are the blood-curdling screams? My friends, the Tap shall provide you with all the evil you need this holiday season.

Also, check out this 1983 video of the Tap discussing Satan (2:12) and performing their classic ode to the season on SNL (5:22):

For more heavy metal hysterics, purchase their epic album, This Is Spinal Tap on Amazon.
