It’s now less than two weeks to Christmas, amazingly.
And I still have yet to write a single Christmas card. Hey ho. But I’ve been working on these posts -and this arrived a few days ago. It’s by Birmingham band Johnny Foreigner, and I must admit I’m now going to go and buy their albums when I have some more cash.
Despite its’ aggressive sounding title, ‘Santa Fucking Claus’ is actually a very sweet sounding song.
Meanwhile, in their own words: “This year we wanted to offer a bonus MP3. It’s called “Little Wrapped Gift.” It’s sung by Toby Weiss and performed by us, Rough Shop. Fans of the Florida garage rock or the Nuggets anthologies will recognize it as a
revision of the Nightcrawlers’ song “Little Black Egg.” The lyrics were rewritten by Toby Weiss and Matt Benz.”

In answer of the accusations:
Let’s face it, every year it’s the same. It’s all indie, indie, indie…
Really? M.I.A., Konono N°1, Underworld, Kylie Minogue, Stanley Odd, Yeasayer…
It’s all men with guitars…
Given that women were responsible either in part or whole for eight out of the te

…And it’s all Scottish.
Right… This is despite the appearance of Chile’s Panico, Konono N°1 hailing from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, M.I.A. being from Sri Lanka, Bjork is Icelandic, and the Suzan are Japanese. Added to which the appearance of people from the US, Canada, Northern Ireland and England…get yourself a better atlas! Oh
ime, a couple of tracks from a 1994 session that Elastica recorded for John Peel (RIP). Both these tracks took well known Christmas carols as their basis
I’ve long associated Belle and Sebastian with Christmas. Not necessarily to do with these songs, so much as the Christmas of 1996, when I returned home from my first term at university with a recording of their then recently released second album If You’re Feeling Sinister, and my brother and I listened to it repeatedly during that holiday. As the

years went by, I fell more in love with the band’s music and a romanticised idea of them. Still, I have met both Stevi

Apologies to whichever member I drunkenly harangued in a pub in Glasgow circa 2004. ‘Oi, mate, you know that last track [‘Stay Loose’] off your last album [Dear Catastrophe Waitress]…you fuckin’ tak

There is a reason I don’t drink any more…
I don’t know much about how the following tracks came into being (all information gratefully received etc. etc.) but I hope you enjoy them as part of the latest installment of my Christmas posts, which you seem to
‘Nature’s Glorious Rage’ was the song above all others that convinced me we had to sign The Last Battle to 17 Seconds Records. I went around singing the song for days, until my wife begged me to stop. When I played them to other people the line’we will grow majestic with rage’ was picked up on and praised.
And so here it is – a FREE download, coupled with two excellent new songs, ‘Once Upon A Boxing Day’ and ‘243’; the latter may ver
