Milwaukee-based indie rock duo The Pulltops have returned and infused with the Holiday spirit!

The traditional ballad is a landmark of the Holiday season, having been rerecorded and rearranged several times over the centuries. Artists ranging from Nat King Cole to Sufjan Stevens and Sting have already presented their versions of the track across the years, but The Pulltops truly made it their own entirely.
In just under two minutes, they navigate through powerful guitar riffs and quick-fire percussion – while still finding room for bells and shimmering Christmas sounds to be added. “On Christmas Day” finds its strength on its repetitive lines and simple melodies, making it a perfect song to be turned into a pop punk gem. And The Pulltops did just that, creating an atmosphere that is joyful and cheerful but also slightly heavier than their usual power pop stylings.
“On Christmas Day” shows the band smashing the molds and turning the beloved carol into something modern and refreshing, without ever letting it lose its antique charm. The Pulltops brought new life to an age-old carol, turning it into the life of the party. The creation of new traditions that still remain truthful to their origins is a big part of the Christmas time as a whole, and with “On Christmas Day” the band opens the last month of the year with an absolute bang!
