Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
Hmm, I can see Bob Dylan do a Christmas album, but what does the Pope have to do with Christmas?

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
Definitely looking forward to the Dylan. The others...not so much.
Hopefully there will be a wealth of good indie stuff along the way.

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
Know who recently released another Christmas album? Neil Freakin' Diamond, that's who!

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
 A Fine Frenzy - Oh, Blue Christmas Good stuff. Physical CD is a Target exclusive. Also out digitally on iTunes.  Family Force 5 - Family Force 5's Christmas Pageant I gave this a listen today and I don't think I'm in their target demo. It was okay.

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
His take on "O Come All Ye Faithful" is probably the most BOMBASTIC one I've ever heard (which I love it). And I've heard a bunch of CCM versions.

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
 MxPx - Punk Rawk Christmas Spoiler:
More of a compilation than a new album, these guys have been putting out Christmas songs every year for the last decade. But in that time, this band has gotten pretty "meh." I'm sorta tempted to get this because I never officially paid for about half of the tracks that are on it (and the other half I don't care about). Maybe if it shows up on eMusic.

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
Hmmm. I might have to check out that MXPX comp. I was kind of into them back in the 90s (love their covers EP).

  Not an album, but the Killers' annual Christmas single - "Happy Birthday Guadalupe!" - come outs on December 1st.

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
^ I still haven't picked it up. I want the cd/dvd deluxe version, but the Japan disc has 3 extra cuts, the dvd is a different region, then I think Amazon's dvd has extra footage (a video?) I can't figure out which version to buy...

Re: 2009 Christmas Albums
I bought the Sting album/DVD and while it's "nothing new", I wouldn't say it's horrible. Pretty bland from the head of the Police, but nice winter background music...
