Ho Ho Ho, Bobnoxious (Wannabe Records)

This gang of rockers from London, Ontario, put this Christmas album out in 2006, a fairly irreverent bit of punk rock fun. After kicking off with a medley of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" and "Jingle Bells," they swing into a parody of "Feliz Navidad" called "Police Nabbed My Dad." Originals include "You Ruined Christmas," an ode to the parental admonition slung at unruly kids, and the title song, in which a child tries to catch Santa in the act, and as usual, fails. And leave us not forget "Santa Bring Me Money," where this mercenary Christmas wish goes unfulfilled. An array of high-speed versions of carols fills out the rest of the disc.
