JAKARTA - Progressive metal/djent band Bless The Knight expressed the joy of Christmas momentum by releasing the song All I Want for Christmas Is You.
This noisy music unit from Jakarta deliberately chose Mariah Carey's song because it wanted to highlight its beauty even though it was played with high-distortion instrumentation.
In executing his music, Fritz Faraday who is the main driving force behind Bless The Knights invites three colleagues to collaborate. There was Alexander Kevin Sugito on the drum line, then Cas Coldfire on vocals and Shafa 'Abi' Abdillah who gave an acute injection of electronic elements.
Different from the previous Bless The Knights songs, which were heavily applied technically plus compositions that tended to be complicated and complex, in All I Want for Christmas Is You they showed a more 'simple' side.
“Actually, I was a bit confused about making a more 'simple' arrangement context. In this project I really gave in, there was no guitar solo, just riffing and I gave a lot of space for Abi. There is still the horror of Bless The Knights, but the 'sweet' taste of Christmas is still there," said Fritz in an official statement received by VOI.
Abi, who was given the responsibility of maximizing the touch of dubstep elements in this song, did get a fairly dominant portion. And he also felt challenged because when he got the initial material the song was only a rough draft of a guitar recording.
“Usually I fill in when (music) is complete. So this is also a challenge for me. Moreover, I know that Bless The Knights (usually) has full songs, so I have to look for gaps so that I don't overdo it," said Abi, who previously studied the progressive house subgenre in the realm of electronic music/EDM.
All I Want for Christmas Is You was released as an audio stream on December 17, followed by a music video and guitar playthrough on December 21 and 24, 2021.
