Happy Punk Christmas
Posted by Delfina

Sorry for the lack of posts. I was away and then just in a funk. Thanks to Abbey for picking up the slack, including in the sidebar news.

With the Christmas season in full swing, here’s some punk rock to get you in the proper mood. Personally, I can’t stand the commercial frenzy of Christmas — I’m not a fan of commercialism the rest of the year either — but I love the cheesy tinsel and garlands, and shiny glass ornaments. And yes, the silly songs.

So here’s the new 2009 Punk Rock Advent Calendar, with one new song posted each day until Christmas.

Jimmy Severe and The Blue Christmas Boys “picked songs that portray all sides of the season - from revelry to irreverence - from White Christmas to Mary’s Boy Child - with strictly for drinking songs like Senor Santa Claus and The Merry Christmas Polka for good large measures.”

And here’s a couple of punk rock and rock Christmas songs that I like:
Pansy Division - Homo Christmas

The Dickies - Silent Night

The Kinks - Father Christmas

Happy punk Christmas!

Nice little Christmas present you have there for us, so thanks for posting this. Really made my day.

I remember some of these songs from a long time ago (like “Stop The Cavalry” or “Father Christmas” - awesome lyrics), but had almost forgotten about them. It’s great to listen to these again. And “Homo Christmas” is just so funny and refreshing, gotta love these guys.

Fortunately we still have some days to go until Christmas fully beats us over the head, and I’m looking forward to hear the rest of the songs.

I LOVE “Father Christmas!” We make sure to have it on our Xmas song list every year- even if it is ironic…Thought it does make you think about what you have, so I guess that’s a good thing. :D

Haha, I enjoyed “Homo Christmas” I’ve never heard that before, sounds like something from South Park.
