]]> Fear “*uck Christmas” b/w “(Bleep) Christmas” 1982. Slash Records. Yesterday’s holiday vinyl spin was the coolest from the Vault collection (Jon Spencer), today’s is the shortest (and most provocative). “Fuck Christmas” clocks in at 44 seconds, the B-side is the same, just with lots of harsh electronic BEEPS instead of fucks. Fear recorded the track during the session for their first album The Record and it was added years later as a bonus track to the CD reissue. Phil Cramer, Fear’s lead guitarist at the time, wrote the song and Lee Ving stamps his berating drill-sergeantish and often offensive vocals onto the holiday classic.

Don’t despair,
just because it’s Christmas.
Children, they’re
all so gay at Christmas.

All the children on the street
hope they get something good to eat.

But for me it’s not so great.

Fuck Christmas! [x10]
