Not the same kinda sound, but I've always loved this song because of group singing.

Dropkick Murphys you say? Indeed, not quite the same sound but still good stuff. Its too late to go linking their Christmas Song, so I'll just go ahead and do this one instead:
Everyone always knows the chorus...but the rest of the lyrics are actually pretty awesome if you listen to them. I'd love to see these guys live sometime.

Still one of my favorite bands of all time. I believe that they pioneered heavy metal with a mixture of gripping, imaginative lyric; melodic sensibility and ripping guitar centered music that has a heavy rhythm section keeping the Earth quaking.
Here is an old one that happens to be one of my favorite examples of the above points all in one song. I'll post a few more of my choice favorites from:
Judas Priest

I love what they did with Joan Baez's song. Definitely not folk music.
Also, Unleashed in the East along with Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus still stand as two of the best recorded / mixed / mastered live recordings ever.

Wuster, Judas Priest is amazing. More people should like them.

Amazing what moving will bring out of the wood work. I was going through cd's and tossing the bad ones or burned mixes and such to lighten the load and I came across something I hadn't thought about in years.
Back in 2010 my wife and I were having a cross country conversation with a friend in Maryland about misheard song lyrics. You know. "There's a bathroom on the right" "Squse me while I kiss this guy" We were having quite a time and then he brought up Slow walking Walter, fire engine guy for Smoke on the Water. I hadn't heard that one before and it tickled my brain. So withing four hours we had lyrics written for the song, I found a backing track and pulled out the guitar and sang our song. Forgive the over modulation on the mic. I had my good one out on loan that day. Here are the lyrics and a little video I just made for youtube.
Spoiler
Slow Walkin’ Walter
Here’s a tale about ol’ Walter And his lifelong sole desire To wear a coat and boots and helmet And fight those evil fires He volunteered at the station The captain could tell with a glance With one leg longer than the other He didn’t have a chance Slow walkin’ Walter, the fire engine guy Slow walkin’ Walter
Ol’ Walter begged and pleaded The captain, he said, “What the hell” They let him wash the engine Polish the chrome and the bell Now Walter’s down at the firehouse He keeps the hoses all nice and clean He sponges down the ladders He gets the spots in-between Slow walkin’ Walter, the fire engine guy Slow walkin’ Walter
A four-alarm fire at the grand hotel They needed every one they could get With the fire trucks rolling from about all sides. Walter had an idea With the help of a friend and some dynamite he helicoptered to the top He threw his charge when he was close up to the fire. That’s how he put the sucker out. Slow walkin’ Walter, the fire engine guy Slow walkin’ Walter

These things in music need to **** die:
- Crystal-clear production jobs - Clicky "typewriter" bass drums - Breakdowns - Catchy choruses

No. These things are plagues upon modern music that have led to cookie-cutter, generic music, and need to stop.
