Title: MMJ's Christmas EP
Post by: Caz on Nov 07, 2006, 05:55 PM
I know this is early and you'll probably hate me... But I'm going to try and make an alternative type Chrimbo compilation for my friends this year.

Anyone know what the MMJ Christmas EP is like? As in, is it Christmassy sounding? ;D

Plus if anyone has any other cool suggestions of bands that have done Xmas songs that might work for the comp. I have a few Pearl Jam ones on the list, and despite it being not alternative at all I will put Merry Christmas (War is Over) on... :)

Again, I apologise ;)

I agree with aMD, the Xmas EP is Xmas sounding & is definitely worth having.
Their cover of Nick Cave's New Morning is beautiful  :)

i actually go to this WFPK Xmas show when I'm in the mood for some Jacket christmas, though. i absolutely love the Does Xmas Fiasco Style ep, but as for length and awesomeness, the WFPK show takes the cake, I think, just because some Jacket live is a beautiful thing.

I'll end up making a mixtape of WPXN and X-Mas Fiasco, I can just feel it. I actually listened to Fiasco last night while I was working on some art... I love it, but WPXN is definately the more Christmassy of the two.

Christmas time is here again...

I love that song.  It puts me in a nostalgic mood.  I usually play that one the most around this time of year...
