Rock this Holiday with Cold Slither and Cobra Claws are Coming to Town

Reigning Phoenix Music, in collaboration with Hasbro, has released the most chaotic Christmas anthem ever to slither down a chimney: Cold Slither’s “Cobra Claws Are Coming To Town.” Fresh from the momentum of their self-titled album, released earlier this year, the Dreadnok-driven metal outfit returns with a holiday track packed with sleigh bells, sabotage, and seasonal pandemonium. The track is accompanied by a high-octane holiday video produced by none other than Torch himself (whose alter ego is known as Ross Sewage). 

“Cobra Claws Are Coming To Town” arrives as both a gift and a warning. This is holiday spirit the Cold Slither way: loud, unhinged, and ready to storm every playlist from now until the new year. Lock your chimneys. The Cobra Claws ride tonight.

You can get their full album now!

G.I. JOE #16 continues the “Dreadnok War,” and packed with fun and key moments

THE FINAL BATTLE OF THE DREADNOK WAR BEGINS! G.I. Joe and Cobra are on a collision course with the Dreadnoks and whatever remains of Duke & Cobra Commander. The penultimate chapter of the twice-monthly G.I. Joe epic is here!
