Far away for Christmas
by MicroMatscenes




The idea was to evoke Christmas with a sense of distance, melancholy, as if we wanted to be part of the excitement, but somehow unable to. The musical style harkens back to a certain "new age" or "world beat" genre of the 1990s, trying to be an evocative piece different from the cheerful and cheesy pop songs (which I kinda love) that plague us during the Holiday Season. I think it’s good if you want to close your eyes and escape, far away, but always in a subtle Christmas mood.

Naughty or Nice
by THE RUNAWAY WILD




Santa Claus is coming to town
So turn that frown upside down
I've been giving out these toys
To all the little good girls and boys

But I hear you've been so naughty
And I find that so nice
I'll be coming down your chimney
Down your chimney pipe tonight

So put on your elf dress
And sit on Santa's lap
'Cause you're the only gift
That I'd like to unwrap, yeah

Tell me girl
Have you been naughty or nice
We're gonna find that fact out tonight
Forget the cookies, give me the cake
I'm gonna make it snow today

Let's lay down by the Christmas tree
Let's get warm by the fire
Let's take off this gift wrapping
And give in to our desire

I used to be a saint, but tonight I am a sinner
Oh, baby
So call up your family and cancel Christmas dinner
Do it, please

And put on your elf dress
And sit on Santa's lap
'Cause you're the only gift
That I'd like to unwrap, yeah

Tell me girl
Have you been naughty or nice
We're gonna find that fact out tonight
Forget the cookies, give me the cake
I'm gonna make it snow today

Oh, Santa

Tell me girl
Have you been naughty or nice
We're gonna find that fact out tonight
Forget the cookies, give me the cake
I'm gonna make it snow today

Yeah
Yeah
Tell me if you're naughty or nice, ooh baby
Yeah, baby

Santa Goes AWOL
by C/A/T




The experimental noise label Zaftig Research has made their holiday compilation an annual tradition for nearly as long as C/A/T has been an active project.

This year we've done our take on a compilation staple track "Santa Goes AWOL". As always the holiday track is a "PWYW" deal. See you in 2023 with more new music!

Happy Holidays,

- C/A/T

DANCE WITH THE DEAD - Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy (cover)

Contre-Attaque - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

MERRY XXXMAS

Is there a playlist of these?

I was looking at Gothmas lists and they were kinda weak! They had good bands but weak songs.

Metal Christmas lists are fire. Krampus, snow, flying at midnight... all go great with heavy guitars and the vibe is great for a party.

Silent Night, Deadly Night
by Faith in the Glitch



I transposed Silent Night into minor key, switched it to 4/4. I really wanted to make this one dark and have a Slasherwave vibe. For when you really need a DarkSynth Christmas song. Happy Holidays to The DataCorp!


Grown​-​Up Christmas List
by Obsession of Time




Traditions are made to be kept. For the 8th year in a row, here's our electrofied take on a Christmas classic.

“Grown-Up Christmas List” is a Christmas song composed by David Foster with lyrics by Linda Thompson-Jenner. It was originally written for a 1989 CBC Christmas special titled “A David Foster Christmas Card” and recorded as a duet with David Foster and Natalie Cole.

The song’s message is more urgent than ever in a time when hate and polarization thrive. If we want a world of peace and love, it must be filled with more kindness and compassion. My grown-up Christmas list, not for myself, but for a world in need.


A Very Vampire Christmas
by Who Saw Her Die?




A vampire sings a Christmas carol to his guests...

Who Saw Her Die? very kindly gave this wonderful alternative Christmas song to Goths for Sanctuaries to continue in our fundraising for Heartstone Animal Sanctuary in Ireland.

WSHD? are a dark wave / post-punk duo from Louisville, Kentucky - Stephen Beasey and Brian Cain.
Spreading our wings into the dark and the light. A sound of supernatural and introspection, of loss and yearning.
