"Metalcore community". Imagine listening to this or AILD in 2019, or thinking it was ever "heavy". You dweebs are hopeless - time to dig out your Forever The Sickest Kids hoodies and get back to stocking shelves at CVS.

This is kinda cool. If i lived in Lancaster I would probably go. The ABR Christmas stuff isn't amazing musically but its a nice change of pace and its nice to hear some metal covers that aren't gimmicky or pretentious as many are.
