Episode 270: 12/22/2024: The HMLM 2024 Holiday Hellshow
This week was our eighth holiday show—and our 270th episode! We began the show with a mix of goth, punk, etc. tracks to bring in the holiday spirit. The second block was a darker and weirder set of holiday songs. The third block was a set of songs about Krampus, Grýla, Belsnickel, etc. The fourth block was a somber set, in which we remember those who are no longer with us for the holidays. The fifth set was a Winter Solstice themed set of post-punk, metal, etc. And we ended the show with some experimental, metal, and comfy synth tracks to wind down the night. We hope you have a Merry Christmas, a happy Channukah, a joyous Kwanzaa—or a nice Wednesday if you don’t do the holidays!
