SUICIDE STAR – “The Day that Christmas Comes” (2021)
Suicide Star recorded a Christmas song? Then you know it’s going to rock heavy! To make it even more interesting, this is not some overplayed Christmas pop hit from years past. It’s a brand new original song, and the first new single since their excellent debut album Isolation. Let’s celebrate!
As soon as singer Rob Barton opens his mouth, you know it’s Suicide Star. He makes the band easy to identify even on shuffle. Anchored by a melodic guitar line from Les Serran, “The Day that Christmas Comes” relays the bright hopeful feeling of the Christmas season.
There will be presents underneath the tree…
But the only thing I need, is you and me.
Lyrically the song captures the spirit and magic of Christmas. Most importantly, the melodic tune (complete with jingle bells) makes it a delight to rock out to. Production is stellar – up there with the album or even exceeding it. There is even a fun and hilarious music video that really nails the Christmas vibe. Well done, Suicide Star, and may your trees be overloaded with joy this Christmas!

I love the video. It reminds me of Don’t Let The Bells End by the Darkness, because of the humour and opening gifts!

I just heard the song on Spotify. I normally stay away from any song with Christmas in the title.
This one is good, a normal melodic rocker.

Yes exactly! The only musical clue that it’s Christmas is the jingle bells.

This is an awesome rock Christmas song that could also somehow double as a theme song for a 90s TV show.
