Okay, so you’ve been bad and deserve coal this year.  Shame on you.  We’re sure you’ll pick it up next year though.  In the meantime we’ve upped the ante since our list from last year doubling the capacity of Christmas music and instead of ten songs as we had originally anticipated, we’ve added a bonus of two songs to help out your 2009 christmas song collection.

Of course our list isn’t entirely ‘indie’ with the Killers, Jimmy Eat World and Julian Casablancas, so feel free to call us out on it.  We did however include some Apples In Stereo, There Will Be Fireworks and Snow In Mexico.  Enjoy our list and the rest of your holiday season and if you haven’t already read about Automatic Slim’s holiday album we recommend at least downloading the two tracks we posted.

    The link for There will be fireworks and Snow in Mexico is the same…
    Thanks, however, for some tunes I really have not heard.
    peace.
