our friends at the filipino indie pop scene have assembled a rousing group of songs to get you in the christmas spirit! and whether you've been naughty OR nice [some might say that is nice to be naughty & naughty to be nice. haha] dale marquez, the FIPS & we have wrapped up a dozen christmas treats for you to listen to. so go deck those halls & stuff your stocking! [uhhh, that sounds kind of vulgar, doesn't it?]

HOLLY, IVY & MISTLETUNES!

ps : here's a review by sean brilldream!

a song to trim the tree WITH.

to keep in the spirit of the holidaze--taylor & i have recorded a christmas carol for all of you to enjoy! granted, yes, there are really only [4] four days to enjoy this little nugget of goodness, but nonetheless--it's a great substitute for that ol' televised yule log! hehe. we hope santa leaves you amazing presents 'neath the TWEE. here's our gift to you. :)

christmas [baby, please come home]

ps : check out the great post from our friend cecilia!
