The Pocket Gods are living legends of the Alt Rock/Indie Pop universe, having been blessed by no less an icon of the underground music scene than the late John Peel. Originally, back in the late nineties, the group was just Mark Christopher Lee and whomever he decided to let join him on any given night. They were a trio for a long stretch and then went back to being just Lee around 2012 (I have no idea what the current line-up is). Nominated for a Grammy a few years back, The Pocket Gods are said to be the most prolific band in the world, having reportedly released over 70 albums and 30 EPs and singles in the last 15 years. When you record that much music, you're bound to have recorded a Christmas song or two. Or twenty. I'm not sure how many, honestly, but they're regulars on the Cherryade Christmas albums, which are now in their tenth year. They have a track on this year's Cherryade set, too, but "The Light Of The World" isn't it. In 2012, they released a full album of their Christmas madness, 14 tracks long.
