We know is Christmas time the moment we start to listen to the same carols everywhere. What’s worst? These are the same carols over and over again throughout the years. Luckily, some artists have their own versions that, with a little twist, have a different sound that might stick to you.
That’s why we made a playlist of alternative Christmas songs that are a must for everyone with an alternative taste in music.
Enough from always listening to ‘All I want for Christmas’ in Mariah Carey’s voice or the classical Silent Night carol. From Smashing Pumpkins to Bob Dylan, Metallica, and The xx, these are some Christmas songs that you should add to your holiday playlist.
Bob Dylan – Must be Santa
Sufjan Stevens – That Was the Worst Christmas Ever!
Smashing Pumpkins – Christmastime
The Killers – Don’t Shoot Me Santa
Metallica – Carol of the Bells
