The 12 coolest Christmas albums…

Posted by kootenay (A) on December 3, 2007 at 11:06:35

Over the years, we've heard hundreds of holiday offerings -- and now we've whittled that massive list down to the 12 Coolest Christmas Albums of All Time. They may not be the biggest hits of Christmases past. But they should make you the hippest DJ on the party circuit.

Happy listening -- and be sure to come back next week for our special two-page roundup of this year's holiday CDs.

12) South Park Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics (1999) Stan, Kyle, Eric, Kenny and their cartoon pals put the X in Xmas with Christmas Time in Hell, Lonely Jew on Christmas, Merry F**king Christmas and, of course, Mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo.

11) Low Christmas (1999) Those who prefer a bluer Christmas will be in tune with this melancholy offering from the Duluth slowcore trio.

10) Sufjan Stevens Songs for Christmas (2006) Indie-popster Stevens makes his own presents -- holiday EPs he gives to friends and family. Now, he's regifted them to us in this five-disc box, which comes with comics, a poster and more.


9) Emmylou Harris Light of the Stable (1979) Country queen Harris is a true Christmas angel on her down-homey offering, which welcomes guests like Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, Neil Young and the McGarrigle sisters.
