As you may or may not have noticed, to paraphrase N Holder, "It Is Christmas!" Or Advent at least, which means it's time for Christmas SONGS!

Regular pals will be EXTREMELY aware that there is a grand tradition of recording and releasing Christmas Songs around these parts, many of which were collected a few years ago on the album Christmas Selection Box. This contains 19 Christmas BANGERS (20 on the Bandcamp version!) recorded over the years as singles, requests, and very often for the Joyzine advent calendar.

Six years ago I thought that putting all the tracks onto an Actual Album (Actually Available on Spotify and similar streaming-type places) would mean my annual festive recordings would cease. However I have since been part of at least TWO more Christmas bangers - Christmas Time Is Here by John Dredge & The Plinths and Is It Too Soon For Christmas? by Jane and John - and now have ANOTHER, done under my own name, to unleash upon you.

For LO! I have recorded a version of Moshi Twistmas by the Moshi Monsters for this year's Joyzine Advent Calendar! This is a song that my late brother-in-law used to put on his MAMMOTH compilations of Christmas songs because it is AMAZING. It does not in any way NEED to be any good - they could have just stuck out a carol or something - but no, The Moshi Corporation seems to have thought "sod it, let's do a MASSIVE CHRISTMAS BANGER" and this is the result. I would like to apologise in advance for you getting it your head but I cannot because it is a WONDERFUL thing to have rattling round your brain. MERRY TWISTMAS everybody!.
