One week to go until Shane MacGowan's brithday (December 25th, dontcha know)! In tribute,we're gonna get a little Xmas trashy today!
No Holiday blowout would be complete without a Billy Childish Xmas tune...so today we've got the wonderfully snotty "Dear Santa Claus". Deliriously catchy "Teenage Christmas" by Eux Autres follows. Then we've got a howlin' greasy harmonica garage blues raving, courtesy of The Brood, "One Winter's Night". And finally lo-fi nihilist geniuses The Guinea Worms gift us with "Oh Fuck, It's Christmas Again".
Man, does it get any better than this? Well, just wait 'til tomorrow!
Santa is a fuck up!
Billy Childish and the Musicians of the British Empire: Dear Santa Claus (mp3)
Eux Autres: Teenage Christmas (mp3)
The Brood: One Winter's Night (mp3)
Guinea Worms: Oh Fuck, It's Christmas Again (mp3)
Thanks for all your support. Please support whatever local charities you can. Cheers!

First, as always, thanks for sharing so many great tunes.
While I like the Eux Autres version, I must say that the original of "Teenage Christmas" (by Jacobites, from their 1998 swan song, "God Save Us Poor Sinners"), is one of my favorite Christmas rockers.
