While I don't hate the standard lineup of holiday music, I always appreciate variety. All I know of is "Punk Goes Christmas" and maybe a handful of singles from over the years. Anyone have anything they know of to suggest? Would prefer originals and not just covers of the classics, but that's not a hard rule or anything.

Also, if possible, bandcamp links would be appreciated. With the upcoming bandcamp friday, it'd be nice to have some good bands to support.

The Vandals have the Christmas album "Oi to the world", it has some good stuff. No doubt also covers the song that shares its name with the album title. It's fun.

I'll look into that. Thanks!

Nice. I don't really like Christmas music. But that album is good. Especially the title track (og and cover). It's a bit of a relic from it's time (2020) but COVID 4 Xmas by Vern and the bastards is good.

Edit: damn autocorrect. Bern, not Vern.
