Shonen Knife - Space Christmas

Here’s the second part of my seasonal mix-tape. The download link is at the bottom.

This part is a little bit more punk. You could probably get away with playing Part One in front of your parents – or children – (as long as you remember to fast-forward through the mighty Wild Billy Childish song) but this one you might want to consider censoring a fraction. Unless, of course, you’re one of the fortunate ones who belong to the type of family who think there’s nothing jollier than screaming “Fuck Christmas” at the top of their lungs (Fear) just as yr in-laws are bringing out the pavlova, or love to join in with a rousing chorus of “Here comes Fatty/With his sack of shit” (Rudolph And Gang) just as your wide-eyed toddlers are opening their presents. Also, that 10-minute long James White And The Blacks track might place a slight strain on familial relations, if not everyone is as into bad-ass jazz skronk as you.

Still, it does contain two of my absolute favourite recent Christmas songs (Eux Autres, The Long Blondes) and, of course, Joseph Spence and The Ronettes, so – fuck me! It must be Christmas!

As ever, the following restrictions apply:
