Pitchfork: Beth Ditto, Mary Timony, Excepter on KRS Holiday CD

Beth Ditto, Mary Timony, Excepter on KRS Holiday CD

Even punk rockers get into the Xmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Solstice/Winter spirit. For its first holiday compilation, Kill Rock Stars has culled exclusive tracks from the likes of Beth Ditto of the Gossip, Mary Timony, Excepter, the Paper Chase, and the Robot Ate Me. The label will release The Kill Rock Stars Winter Holiday Album to digital retailers on November 21, but CD-R copies of the mix can be obtained for free with an online purchase of $50 or more, e.g. one of the Kill Rock Stars holiday packs.

Physical copies of the mix will not be available for long, and you must write your request for a copy in the comment field of the order form. But the little extra effort will be more than worth it when you get to hear Excepter do "Little Drummer Boy.
