I know it still a bit early in the season, but I thought some of you might enjoy this Holiday Classic I found on Youtube:

Love this. And finally figured out that the bass riff is "Dont Eat the Yellow Snow."

With two weeks left til Christmas, I guess today's gift is "A Bass Riff in 7/4 time" However, my true love probably wouldn't know 7/4 from 4/4 ;)

They say in their facebook page that one of the musicians has hurt a hand, so Progmas is cancelled this year - but they've working on their 'proper' album (which will hopefully be as good as some of the things going on in that fab spoof)

On the third day of Progmas, my true love gave to me - three pretentious lyrics:
"Dawn of our power we amuse redescending as fast as misused"
"O Lamia, your flesh that remains I will take as my food"
"Dance into the meat grinder, ethnic cleansing sharp reminder" ;)

Speaking of, whatever happened to Teaflax? Been hearing about this album for what seems like years now LOL.
Merry progmas!

DO they add tweaks every year? The opening Aqualung bit (which I love) isn't on the version I downloaded some time ago.

On the 12th day of Progmas, my true love gave to me - 12 structural, contrapuntal and harmonic complexities of the kind you don’t hear in most modern pop/rock, because that stuff is just directed at the lowest common denominator, whereas prog aims higher and dares to challenge the listener in ways that mainstream music rarely, if ever, manages to. (Whew!) ;)
