Refreshing Christmas Jams

It's that time of year when Christmas is still weeks away, but commercials, department stores, radio stations, etc. insist on playing the hell out of the same 100 or so versions of Christmas songs on loop. There's a wealth of lesser known Christmas jams that certainly need more loving, so I figured it'd be fun for everyone to share their favorite hidden Christmas gems.

I'll kick things off with a few~

My favorite Christmas song. Any garage enthusiasts should check out Merry Christmas, a joint album by The Sonics, The Wailers, and The Galaxies ^.^

Excellent band, mediocre song. And unless you've listened to Swan Songs a few times you won't understand all of the humor of the song because it references multiple songs from that album. Sadly, I didn't find any other songs, except

well ole sufjan just released a giant christmas album. it's five of his EPs from the past ten years about christmas, has like fifty fucking songs. if you like christmas music check that out
 
Chill Murray, I love you. I had no idea that anyone else ever heard of that song, lol. Considering all the movies they made, I never understood why that didn't at least become a TV special.

Anyway, this one's one of my favorites. I got like a whole CD of weird Christmas music (that also has the Cheech and Chong one on it), so this post is definitely the first of many.

This one is pretty funny for all you Canadians out there.
 
Trans Siberian Orchestra is always worth listening to. Probably best known when the one dude set up his Xmas lights to one of their songs (Wizards in Winter), but all 3 of their Christmas albums are great.
