Tom Waits Christmas would have been a banger. Nobody is going to know who the hell this is, but I think Coldrain would make a badass Christmas album.
WAIT no I just figured it out: an Alestorm Christmas album. Foul-mouthed pirate metal for the whole family lmfao
David Draiman (Disturbed).
I think given the Sound of Silence cover a lot of classic annunciation / adoration carols would work well.
Absolutely. That cover completely changed the way I saw him as a singer
Easy: James Taylor. Oh wait - he's released SEVERAL Christmas albums already, and they all sound as morose and sad as most of his "popular" shit. I mean drink a quart of whiskey, cry into your empty glass and blow your brains out kind of sad and morose. The Duck household had (past tense) two of those fucking things in the house for several years before I yeated the CDs the fuck out of Duckville and Frisbee'd them into the wild blue yonder.
James Taylor Christmas CDs are now persona - err... duckona non grata here, under penalty of unlimited coal in one's Christmas stocking. Fuck James Taylor too - no respect for him now.
Rammstein
Theres a clip of them reading the recipie for baking cookies out there somewhere. It's awesome actually

Are you sure this isn't the song from Tool called Die Eier von satan?
Die Eier von Satan
Eine halbe Tasse Staubzucker
Ein Viertel Teelöffel Salz
Eine Messerspitze türkisches Haschisch
Ein halbes Pfund Butter
Ein Teelöffel Vanillezucker
Ein halbes Pfund Mehl
150 Gramm gemahlene Nüsse
Ein wenig extra Staubzucker
Und keine Eier
In eine Schüssel geben
Butter einrühren, gemahlene Nüsse zugeben und den Teig verkneten
Augenballgroße Stücke vom Teig formen
Im Staubzucker wälzen und sagt die Zauberwörter
Simsalabimbamba Saladu Saladim
Auf ein gefettetes Backblech legen und bei 200 Grad für 15 Minuten backen
Und keine Eier
Das Leben
Bei 200 Grad 15 Minuten backen
Und keine Eier
The funny bit about this song, as I recall, is that Maynard Keenan figured people would interpret anything in German with this cadence as Hitler type antisemitism.
The recipe repeats "Und keine Eier", and no eggs. This is counter to the jewish trope that jews are the eggs that bind a society.
Whether he meant to or not, Keenan produced the antisemitism he thought to mock.
My thought, too.
Jethro Tull.
I'd add Skynard to that for good measure
It's not an album but here is a deep cut from Tom Waits.
That's about as great as I expected it to be. His voice would be amazing for a lot of different christmas songs
Marilyn Manson. GWAR Venom
I can't imagine how that would go, honestly. His modern sound and look is so drastically different from the 90s
Cannibal Corpse
Korn
