Tis the season for pop-punk/hardcore/rock bands to produce what i like to call... xmas-core. After having surgery during my finals week, I was pandora-ing listening to some "interesting" covers of all our favorite Christmas classics. This season, you won't have to settle for cookie-cutter Christmas tunes. Settle yourself in for a wild ride. We all have our favorite "punk goes christmas" collection. I'll be making my list AND checking it twice.

So, as i compiling this Xmas-core list, tell us:
What is your favorite Christmas song cover?

As you ponder, check out these albums for ideas!
1. Santa Cause: It's A Punk Rock Christmas CD by Various Artists
2. No Gift to Bring by the Almost
3. A Christmas Album by Bright Eyes <3333
4. Music From The O.C.: Mix 3 – Have a Very Merry Chrismukkah



AND.............




5. My personal favorite (which will cause you to chuckle) is Merry Christmas with Love by Clay Aiken. YES. Clay Aiken. Go ahead and make all the gay jokes you wish. It's still my favorite.




Merry Christmas, RCA.
and a Happy New Year.
