The Songs and Albums , best left on the shelf at Christmas > THE THREAD BANDS REFORM FOR !!

Discussion post-pub , was " what could possibly the most depressing Christmas album .... ever "

Various tracks and whole albums were thrown in the hat , I'll list a few I own , you may have them , you may not , either way I'd reccommend them for the New year if not the season to be jolly :D

Artist Album Track

Big Star ... The Third Album .... Kizza me

Big Star .... The Third Album ... O, Dana ( I'm convinced Hooky must've listened to this back in 1975 , better than Jon Denvah anyhow )

Husker Du .. Candy Apple Grey ....I dont want to know if you're lonely

Frank Sinatra ...The wee small hours .... When your lover has gone

Mazzy Star .... She hangs Brightly ...Before I sleep

Slint .... Spiderland ..... Good Morning Captain

Neil Young ...Tonights the night ...Tired eyes

Nick Drake ....Pink Moon .. Which , will ?

Both Closer and UP were thrown into the pot as was ANYTHING by laughing Leonard Cohen and Billy Holiday .

So that's me list , please add to this album of woe and genius and apologies to those of you who are on the edge at the moment , cheer up there's supposed to be a Norder album comin ... hang in there .... I mean chin up etc

I actually find "Blue Christmas" by the Big E incredibly depressing myself.

"I Know It's Over" by the dreaded Smiths and "This Time of Night" by the even more dreaded Cure are good non-Christmas downers
