Here's the long-awaited moment, as we present the Punk Melody Time 6th Annual Depressing Christmas Special! 

We won a Major Award for last year's show, so I hope this one lives up to those lofty standards. Some new songs, a few old chestnuts and some that we just can't help but play every year (a.k.a. the same old crap). 

I hope this helps you make it safely through the holiday season, I'll see you on the other side.
