The Hot Pentecostals are maybe the first band ever to pass up making a few mediocre studio albums to go straight for the Xmas Album. We just think Xmas is really awesome and country songs are even awesomer.

The band decided a few months ago that it would be hilarious to make a country Xmas album to give to friends and family this year. We made the mistake of telling everyone we knew about it whenever we got drunk, so as Xmas rapidly approached we felt obligated to actually do it.

We ended up with 10+ songs, a couple of shows and a strong dislike for reindeer, but the album sounds good. I hope you'll come to the show this Friday at the Scoot Inn, listen to us on KVRX 91.7 at10PM on Dec 23rd, or just download the album for free at www.thehotpentecostals.com.
