Best Indie and Alternative Rock Christmas Songs, Mix X: Gary Glitter, Sex Pistols, The Ramones, The Killers and Guster

This mix, the tenth installment of the Christmas playlists series, offers Xmas songs from punk legends Sex Pistols and The Ramones and modern-day popular artists like Arcade Fire, Yo La Tengo, The Killers, Something Corporate and Stars.

Personal favorite track on this playlist is Guster‘s “Donde Esta Santa Claus.” It’s different, upbeat and infectious.
