Everybody's favorite band from Duluth takes on Christmas in their own quirky style. Starting off surprisingly up tempo they jingle through "Just Like Christmas." After that things become more what one expects from the band who plays everything slowly. A somber reflection on the journey of the Magi in "Long Way Aound the Sea" is followed by a fuzzy rendition of "Little Drummer Boy." Returning to original material they wonder what would happen "If You Were Born Today" concluding, "we'd kill you by age eight." Throughout, Low, offers their own sly perspective on Christmas, from the whistfulness of taking down the tree, to deep, spiritual engagement. The final song closes with the lyrics, "After we've spent all the money, on nieces and nephews, and a couple of friends, there'll be just enough left for one special gift.....for one special guest."
