Hipster Holidays: Unconventional holiday songs

Submitted by Luke Sorge on Dec 20 2018

You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen, "Silent Night" and "Jingle Bells," and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," but what about the more unconventional holiday songs?

Just in time for your seasonal revelry, here’s a list of six songs for those of us who want an alternative take on holiday cheer. All released after the mid-2000s, these songs may never become universal standards, but the Spotify crowd may count them among the essential Yuletide tunes. I call it Hipster Holidays.

Death, the Universe, and Everything

Submitted by Luke Sorge on Nov 29 2018

A year ago, I lost my father. I don’t mean he was misplaced or that he’s wandering about in a hedge maze or anything – he died. It wasn’t a surprise, he’d been sick for a while. But it was terribly sad. Obviously. In the year since, my family and I have grieved his loss and celebrated his life in a number of different ways. I’ve discovered a sort of atomic half-life of influence he had on me, most surprising of which is just how much of a literary impact he made.
