Stockings OF DEATH

A Christmas stocking is a marker of time. So’s death.

Kids shouldn’t go hungry at Christmas! comes the refrain for the minute-long punk sermon “Stocking Filler” by way of Popclaw. That kills.

Christmas Stocking 2009” is soft spoken country sentimentality from Larry Heral about grampa’s stocking and what happened to it. Wah.

The Devil’s Christmas Stocking” by Helen McCookerybook is a delightful bit of folk fluff wherein Santa and Satan get down to brass tacks and agree to disagree. (I’m thinking Satan didn’t get any stocking fillings.)

The Angry Kid Merry Christmas Stocking Song” by, i presume, Angry Kid seems pop song pleased with his grisly stuffer treat. But i’m pretty sure somebody died.
