August Burns Red on their Christmas project, "The idea of doing a full Christmas album has been floating around in the ABR camp for a few years now, but what always held us back was finding the time and energy to write an additional full-length in between touring and writing our regular records. After finishing [2011's] 'Leveler' I finally felt inspired enough to tackle the Christmas album idea."
