A Political Christmas Spectacle with Beldon Haigh’s Signature Edge On ‘White House Meltdown Christmas Day’
Beldon Haigh’s ‘White House Meltdown Christmas Day’ is the perfect antidote to cookie-cutter holiday songs, delivering a biting, satirical punch wrapped in glittering festive cheer. From the very first line, the song sets the stage for an audacious and laugh-out-loud parody, featuring Donald Trump reveling in his “biggly” accomplishments alongside his equally infamous pals, Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un. The lyrics are sharp, irreverent, and brilliantly prophetic, making the track feel as much like a political commentary as a festive anthem.
Musically, the band masterfully channels the grandeur of the 1970s Christmas classics, with soaring melodies, rich instrumentation, and a chorus that’s impossible not to sing along with. Lines like “We’re gonna have a White House Meltdown Christmas Day” are both absurdly catchy and surprisingly poignant, reflecting the chaos and humor of modern geopolitics. The production is lush and vibrant, capturing the spirit of the season while delivering a hefty dose of sardonic wit.
The accompanying video is a true tour de force, transforming the White House into a gaudy winter wonderland. Trump-themed baubles and a custom tree-topper set the scene for a surreal holiday gathering, as the trio of authoritarian leaders squabble over games and gifts, culminating in a farcical argument about the big red (nuclear) button. The chaotic energy is perfectly punctuated by a cameo from Boris Johnson, who storms in to smash a cake, leaving a lasting impression of holiday hilarity.
Beldon Haigh has once again proven their ability to combine humor, storytelling, and musicianship into a uniquely compelling package. After a year of hits like Elected and a stellar run with their rock opera Dystopia, this Christmas cracker feels like a victory lap for a band at the top of their game. With its mix of festive fun and razor-sharp satire, White House Meltdown Christmas Day is a holiday anthem for our times—bold, brilliant, and unforgettably entertaining.

Naud Takes Flight with ‘Un Gars Bian’: A Wild Ride of Music & Madness

After ten years of musical mischief, Naud has finally dropped anchor, or rather taken flight, with Un Gars Bian, an album that feels like a hug from an old friend and an impromptu dance party all at once. This high-energy, genre-mashing adventure blends alternative pop, electro, funk, and whatever else Naud felt like throwing into the mix. Think Marseille’s “joyous chaos” bottled up into soundwaves, bursting with playful unpredictability.
Leading things off is “Déjà Vu,” a sweet-and-sour love song about a romance that spanned across Europe but never quite took off, kind of like booking a first-class ticket to heartbreak. It’s got just the right mix of experimental vibes and catchy pop magic to make you groove while overthinking your past relationships.
The album title, Un Gars Bian, is a cheeky play on words, merging Marseille (city in France) slang for “seagull” (gabian) with “un gars bien” (a nice guy). It’s basically Naud in a nutshell: a free-spirited, big-hearted artist who wants to spread good vibes, reckless creativity, and a touch of joyful madness. And if that wasn’t enough, he’s also launched an Un Gars Bian t-shirt line, because what’s better than wearing your philosophy on your sleeve, literally? Grab yours here!
So, are you ready to embrace the joyful chaos? Un Gars Bian is the perfect excuse to dance like nobody’s watching and live life with a little more mischief. Let’s gooo!
