A mix of traditional Christmas songs and John Zorn originals written specifically for this band: Marc Ribot on guitar, Jamie Saft on keyboards, Kenny Wollesen on vibes, chimes and glockenspiel, Trevor Dunn on bass, Cyro Baptista on percussion, and Joey Baron on the drums. Mike Patton does the vocals on the closing track. Required listening for this particular (and peculiar) day of the year.
Note to file: suggested alternative lyric to Winter Wonderland:
Every year when it's raining,
I find myself explaining
That the precipitate's
Not a matter of fate.
It's the carbon in the fucking atmosphere.
Joyeux Noël, y'all.
