All Is Calm, Swansea Sound (self-issued)

I first encountered these guys as one of the entries in the Snowflake Christmas Singles Club a few years ago, and for 2025 they've dropped a short album/long EP including their cool indie-rock entry from that series, "Happy Christmas To Me," along with several other previously released holiday tunes and a couple new ones. Things kick off with the thrashy "Not My Order," a goof on using the internet to buy gifts; "(I Wanna Wear a) Mirrored Hat Like Slade" is a poppy Christmas wish tune calling back to 70s glam-rockers Slade; "The Life We Led" is a midtempo reflection on a couple's past together; "Santa Bail Me Out" is a nice rocker about holiday misadventures; "Dreamland" is a duet vocal about holiday celebrations; "Click It and Pay (Walking in the Air)" sounds like it's also about online shopping; and "Merry Christmas Darlings" is an overall loping holiday greeting not unlike the previously mentioned Slade, with yet another mention of online commerce. Streaming and downloads, but if you go to Bandcamp they'll sell you a vinyl version of the album.
