Observation, Christmas songs.

[Loren Littlejohn]

Songs that are "secular" suck ass (ie: jingle bells, rocking around the Christmas tree, Santa clause is coming to town).

While the "religious" ones are WAY fucking better (ie: o come o come, O Holly night etc...)


Seriously, fuck songs about that fat red bastard.

Jingle Bells is awesome!

While I agree with this assessment pretty much, my favorite Christmas song is and always will be "Carol of the Bells". I sang in choir most of my formal education and I always loved the Christmas season concerts and "Carol of the Bells" was always a highlight for me.

I don't like any of them. They're all corny IMO.

Gary Hoey, saving Christmas songs from sucking since 1995.

March Hare did the most badass version of Carol of the Bells I've ever heard.

Its just too bad that you cant hear what he is singing even if you know the lyrics.

Just to add my own:

Agree, I highly enjoy this version of it.

I would love to hear a metal band step out of their box and do a more traditional version of such a track.

Has everyone here forgotten about Theocracy's christmas tunes they put out each year?

I know there's a few I'm missing, but you can download them all from their website here by signing up for their club (free):

They haven't released one yet this year, but I've heard it's in the works

I'd rather listen to this for the holiday seasons =)
