If you’ve ever dreamed of James Hetfield reading you a festive bedtime story, consider this an early Christmas present.

The Metallica frontman has released a spoken-word take on Clement-Clarke Moore’s 1823 classic “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” (originally known as “A Visit from St. Nicholas”), proving that all nostalgic poems sometimes deserve a fresh interpretation.

Last weekend, the highest echelons of conservative thought and influence came together in Arizona for America Fest, Turning Point USA’s biggest annual gathering.
