Free Music Notes for Maybe This ChristmasFree Music Review: one of the best alt/indie holiday album to date Hit: 5 Stars
if you are tired of all the cheesy holiday stuffs you hear on the radio, at the mall, etc., and looking for more 'left of the field' holiday tunes, 'MtC' is a must buy. this cd is one of my all time favorite christmas cd's, prolly along with likes of 'MtC2', 'O Come All Ye Faithful' (pro-choice benefit compilation featuring Flying Saucer Attack, Henry Rollins, Cranes, Dance Hall Crashers et al, now out of print maybe?) and 'Just Say Noel' (Beck, the Roots, Sonic Youth, SCotS, Remy Zero which is also bit rare to find nowadays)
Free Music Review: Great. Hit: 5 Stars
I really enjoy the songs on here. This album introduced me to Phantom Planet. I got this album right when it came out, so Phantom Planet wasn't big yet. My fav is Ben Folds' song. It's the reason i got the album, and i don't agree with that person who didn't like it. This guy says that it's making fun of people with a country backround. Well ben folds is like that. And it's suppose to be like the "Grandma Got runover by a reindeer" song. i think it fits nicely, and is very good.
Free Music Review: One of the best! Hit: 5 Stars
This is definitely one of the best Christmas cds I have ever heard. I bought it because of the Barenaked Ladies/Sarah McLachlan tune that has haunted me since last year and was pleasantly surprised by the entire CD. I even heard the version of Winter Wonderland on Boston Public last night! This is hip, cool Christmas music that teens and adults can enjoy. I particularly like the new version of Rudolph and the Ben Folds song. A wonderfully different cd!
Free Music Review: It's rare that Christmas music doesn't suck Hit: 5 Stars
But that's just what this cd doesn't do, and about the only thing it doesn't do, ... It has a lot of variation going from the Beatlesesque Neil Finn song, to the acoustic Ron Sexsmith song to the vintage tone of the croonerish Coldplay rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." While my tendencies definitely lean the way of the Jimmy Eat World, Sense Field and Phantom Planet songs there's definitely something for everyone here.
Free Music Review: scariest christmas album ever Hit: 5 Stars
...at least thats how Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes describes their compolation album in the December issue of alt press. And I dont doubt it's that and a great album to boot w/ contributers such as Jimmy Eat World and Sense Field. Definately a great album for anyone who's sick of that dull original Jingle Bells or yet another batman/santa parody. It'll appeal to the Scrooge in all of us.
