About The Record:

**Commercial Christmasland by Scrooge Bros** is an obscure pop novelty Christmas record that delivers a crass and satirical take on holiday consumerism and traditions through humorous, adult-oriented lyrics and playful rock-pop arrangements. The duo, consisting of members from the short-lived punk band The Maxx, crafted an outlandish project known for its irreverent humor and distinctive cover art that perfectly captures the chaotic festive spirit. Standout tracks include fan favorites like I Wish You Would Take Your Hat Off with its cheeky striptease-themed narrative, Glory To The Store Displays, What Smell Is This, Jingleside, and Deck Yourself which gained airplay on The Dr. Demento Show for its comedic edge. This release stands out as a cult curiosity in novelty Christmas music for its unapologetic blend of punk attitude with holiday satire.
