AUSTRALIAN ALT POP X ROCK ARTIST RINRIN SHARES VIDEO FOR HER ANTI-SANTA CHRISTMAS ANTHEM “IT’S CHRISTMAS TIME!” — WATCH
FEARLESS RECORDS recently welcomed Australian alt pop x rock artist RINRIN to the label’s global roster.
Today, she has shared her super irreverent, mega-catchy, super fun yet lyrically thoughtful anti-Santa Christmas anthem, “It’s Christmas Time.”
“We’re told Santa gives presents to all the kids? Well what about poor kids, homeless kids, orphans?,” RinRin asks. “They won’t get that same treatment. This song is about the rage felt by these kids who have their hopes broken by the injustice of Santa.”
“It’s Christmas Time” is not your typical holiday track spreading merriment and Yuletide cheer. And that’s why you will absolutely love it! It might be the most wonderful time of the year but RinRin is far more content being on Santa’s naughty list and receiving a stocking full of coal. While Christmas songs are often celebratory, RinRin embraces delightful darkness with “It’s Christmas Time.” Explosive breakdowns, eruptive riffs, and “f” bombs are generously sprinkled among her soaring vocal melodies, shimmering synths, and mirthful sleigh bells. RinRin flips the bird to Christmas conventions like Santa and his seemingly arbitrary giving of gifts, so be sure and add this one to your holiday playlist!
F**k “Jingle Bells.” RinRin ain’t having any of that!
It’s easy to see why Fearless has scooped RinRin up and signed her! She doesn’t just blur genre lines — she completely obliterates them like a head-on collision into hyper-pop, fuchsia-soaked madness. Her label debut “fever dream” is a whirlwind that is perfect for the TikTok generation in search of its next North Star. It landed New Music Friday across eight countries when it dropped. Her musical style and songs feel like their own elaborate universe, weaving together soaring euphoric melodies, blistering guitar work, pulsing electronics, and emotionally charged lyricism into an experience that’s equally suited for a festival main stage, an anime opening sequence, or a late-night drive with the windows down. Watch the video for “fever dream,” which mixes animation and live footage, here.
