Merry Christmas 2009 From Theocracy!

[Matt Smith]

Hey Guys--
Short and sweet this year, but I hope you like it.
We decided to Theocracize a traditional Christmas hymn again this time.

Angels From the Realms of Glory

Matt

 

[kethdredd]

Wahoo! Thanks Matt!

 

[TengwarSymphony]

i had resigned myself to not expecting one of these - and wouldn't have thought a thing of it had it not happened - since there is so much going on for theocracy right now. but here it is - and i say thank you.

 

[Craigsnedeker]

*listening now*

Sounds AWESOME! Thanks theocracy!!

 

[Ryan M.]

wow! THAT IS AWESOME! One of my favs... couldn't help but notice that it sounds like the song in the original grinch cartoon near the end!

 

[Jared Oldham]

Yeah that was intentional, Ryan. Pretty awesome how it just fits right in there huh?

 

[Ryan M.]

I know! P.S. you played bass in it right? I know you played as a fill in for a while... so were you playing in that song?

 

[Ryan M.]

Sure did!

 

[Val Allen Wood]

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone loves the song!

 

[Killerah]

Great tune! Sounds more like usual modern power metal than previous Theocracy (if that makes sense). Thanks guys!

 

[knight777]

Awesome! Thank you Theocracy!

 

[Aletheus]

What is this song? I'm just downloading it... a remake of a traditional western Christmas song or?

 

[Ryan M.]

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone loves the song!

WE ALL LOVE IT... or at least I do!

 

[Paper Carnival]

This is beautiful! This is probably the best Christmas song you've made so far.

Are the fast riffs Val's contribution?

I love the direction you are going to.

 

[Eyesore]

Excellent! Thanks again, Matt!
