10 Rock Christmas Songs to Get You In The Spirit
Guitar Habits

Is loving the holidays considered punk rock? We may never know the answer. All we can do is make the holiday more rock and roll. Here's ten songs to help you deck the halls and air guitar.


1. Happy Christmas (War is Over) by Bert McCracken ft. Street Drum Corps

There is nothing quite like the flawless vocals of Bert McCracken of the Used paired with the never ending instrumental talents of Street Drum Corps.

2. All I Want For Christmas Is You by My Chemical Romance
Mariah Carey may have included Justin Bieber in her version, but I guarantee that this hard rock cover will never include the pop star.

3. Santa Stole My Girlfriend by The Maine
This hilarious original song tells the tale of Santa Claus swooping in and stealing the girlfriend of (presumably) someone in the Maine.

4. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays by Issues
In case you've ever wondered what Nsync' sounds like with screaming and guitars, this is it.

5. Santa Baby by VersaemergeThis seductively playful track is only made better by the vocal stylings of Sierra Kay.

6. Little Drummer Boy by The AlmostEveryone's favorite drummer boy from Underoath displays a high degree of vocal talents in this classic.

7. O Holy Night by Go RadioWho knew rock music could be so beautiful?

8. Christmassacre by From First To Last
Nothing says "Merry Christmas" like Sonny Moore screaming violently into your earbuds.

9. Father Christmas by the MisfitsThis is the only song to play for a merry Misftmas, and a happy new year.

10. You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch by Gary HoeyThe only mean thing about this song is the guitar skills.

Open up your music library, buy these songs, and there's no doubt that you will be rockin' around the Christmas tree this holiday season.

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
