Avatar have recruited Zakk Wylde for “Naughty List,” an original Christmas song that takes the side of the kids Santa skips. The Swedish metal band premiered the official video on November 12, with the Black Label Society guitarist billed as its guest.

The song follows Nicky Nisse, who sneaks into Santa’s workshop after closing time to get his hands on the naughty list. His plan is to deliver presents to the kids on it himself, complete with a heavy metal sleigh. The chorus turns the Christmas roll call into an invitation for misfits to sing along.

Johan Carlén directed, filmed and edited the video. Kristina Sandfors and Claes Lindberg handled its sets and props, with lighting by Max Månmyr. Watch the full clip on Avatar’s official channel below.
