Mix Tape: Stocking Stuffers

Holiday music really isn’t my thing. The vast majority of it makes me physically cringe or wanna punch an elf or some shit. Like I need to hear Taylor Swift or Sugarland grin their way through the thousandth version of “Frosty The Snowman” or Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song.” While I had some grand times with my mom as a kid, most of my memories of Christmastime are closer to Mrs. Hurdicure’s happiest memory in The Kids In The Hall’s glorious, prescient Brain Candy. Still, tis’ the season and all that, and there are a handful of tunes that skirt the usual holiday jingle awfulness. Some of them are downright cheerless, some a little off-color, but each jingles my sleigh bells and hopefully yours, too.

If you experience playback problems, pop over to the 8tracks mix page and it should play fine.
