YOBS – CHRISTMAS ALBUM (LP)

Power-pop punks the Boys signed to NEMS in 1976, which led to a following in Europe, but disagreements with NEMS spawned alter-ego the Yobs, who specialized in tasteless adaptations. The 1980 release The Yobs Christmas Album finds the Yobs at their most puerile and profane, a collection of deliciously vile Xmas-themed singalongs, offering rude alternate renditions of holiday favorites such as “Twelve Days Of Christmas” and a druggy take of “Auld Lang Syne,” alongside equally shocking originals such as “Ballad Of The Warrington.” Make sure the kids and granny are out of earshot — this is the Yobs at their sickest!
