The Story Behind the Song
Combining a lifelong fandom of Elvis Presley with a desire to create a uniquely heavy holiday anthem, Truenemy presents a blistering metal rendition of “Santa Claus Is Back in Town.” Sparked by the release of the 2022 Elvis biopic, Paul Vuocolo set out to merge classic blues-rock swagger with the edgy riffing of his biggest influences—Metallica, Megadeth, and Anthrax.
Recorded entirely in 2022 at Paul’s home studio and mixed by the legendary Chuck Alkazian at Pearl Sound Studios, this brand-new single takes a Christmas classic and gives it the high-octane production it deserves.

What They're Saying
Santa Claus Is Back In Town - Full Lyrics
Well, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling down (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good little girl
Santa Claus is back in town (Christmas)
Got no sleigh with reindeer
No sack on my back
You’re gonna see me comin’
In a big black Cadillac
Oh-oh, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town (Christmas)
Hang up your pretty stockings
And turn off the light
Santa Claus is comin’
Down your chimney tonight
Oh-oh, it’s Christmas time, pretty baby
And the snow is falling on the ground (Christmas, Christmas)
Well, you be a real good little baby
Santa Claus is back in town
