People have commented and asked why we are not running a series of playlists of alternative and indie rock Christmas music this year. Answer is two-part: not enough time, but more importantly, what for? IRC ran a long and popular collection of alternative Xmas songs playlist last year that are still up and available for your listening pleasure.

There are a total of more than 100 Christmas-theme songs. Check them out and enjoy at the We Wish You a Very Indie Christmas series. As always, if you like an artist or label in particular, go check out their official websites, happily purchase their music for your permanent music collection and see them at shows near you.

Here are a few of the spotlight songs from the series:

"Put The Lights On The Tree" by Sufjan Stevens

"Silent Night" by Low

"Blue Christmas" by Bright Eyes

"Last Christmas" by Jimmy Eat World
