Christopher Lee Releases New Metal Christmas Song

(Radio.com) The 92-year-old wonder Christopher Lee just keeps going when it comes to his heavy metal hobby, particularly around the holidays. After a slew of previous holiday-themed singles set in the heavy metal vein, the actor and occasional singer's offering for 2014 is now here.

In a video that also calls back to his earlier Christmas tracks, Lee debuts "Darkest Carols, Faithful Sing," a redoing of the classic holiday/religious track "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing." Over a pummeling guitar riff, Lee alters the lyrics of the original, replacing them with metal-worthy wording.

"Christ, I like those heavy chords/ Christ, I want to hear some more," he sings in his Dracula-like delivery, preaching "glory to the metal kings." The new song begins at about 1:50 in the video here.
