Ah, Christmas… It’s that time of the year when we bust out the mistletoe, start ringing those sleigh bells, get in some snowball fight – Wait, sorry, that’s how it would be if an Aussie Christmas was at all like the countless carols that we hear each and every year.
Yidcore – ‘Lonely Jew At Christmas’
At Christmas time, it’s also pretty easy to forget that there’s plenty of folks out there who don’t celebrate the annual holiday as many do. No one managed to capture that feeling than the world’s foremost Jewish punk band (after Useless ID and Atom & His Package, of course), Yidcore.
Covering the song ‘Lonely Jew At Christmas’ which made its first appearance on the first season of South Park, the Melbourne musos painted a humorous picture of Christmas from those in the Jewish faith, and managed to give one brilliant song that soundtracks this time of year.
