1. It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas
2. Christmas Don't Be Late
3. Winter Wonderland
4. I Wish It Was Christmas Today
5. Auld Lang Syne
You may or may not recall that, way back at the beginning of December, we steered you to some downloads from Denver artists Kissing Party and Jon Evans. Checking back to see if the links were still live, we discovered that Mr. Evans had slipped another entirely new Christmas EP past us when we weren't looking. Evans, half of the rhythm section for Indie Rock band Achille Lauro, continues his quirky, deconstructive, experimental Hip Hop Pop re-imaginings of holiday classics. Personally, I think Evans went the wrong way on the now obligatory "I Wish It Was Christmas Today", but he scores well with the rest of the EP--especially "Auld Lang Syne" refitted with new lyrics and a well acted bit of bedroom dialogue between lovers sharing secrets. "The Ghosts Of Christmas Past, Present, And Party!!!" is available free (as is Evans' previous holiday EP) through Hot Congress.
