Album Description: 2007 holiday album from the Alternative Christian rockers. From the glory of 'Handel's Messiah' and 'Angels We Have Heard On High' to the goofiness of 'I'm Gettin' Nuttin' For Christmas' and 'Santa Claus Is Thumbin' To Town', this yuletide album captures the many sides the season...and of Relient K. Includes 10 holiday classics and six self-penned songs for the season. Capitol.
Amazon.com: The punnily-titled Let It Snow Baby… Let It Reindeer has much to offer fans of the band as well as listeners in search of an untraditional approach to Christmas music. Much of the material here was already released as their first holiday outing, 2003's Deck the Halls, Bruise Your Hand. Those ten tunes were a fun, indie spin on yuletide tunes by the feisty new kings of Christian pop-punk. Appended to those, we now have seven more songs recorded in 2007. In the intervening four years, the band's signed to Capitol Records and their sound is far more produced and polished. It's also clearly better, but what the group lacked for in talent early on, they made up for in spirit. The newer songs are all solid, and they really highlight how far Matt Thiessen has come as a frontman. The walking bass line to their version of "Sleigh Ride" might sound uninspired, but the tightly-wound Beach Boys-ish harmonies and explosive guitars more than make up for that. --Mike McGonigal

Rating: - Good, but Hang Your Stocking Start The Rocking is better
Good album. Love their version of Sleigh Ride.
If you like rockin' Christmas music though, you MUST check out Kevin and The Octaves album "Hang Your Stocking Start The Rocking." It's a little more on the punk side, but very poppy and creative with the traditional Christmas songs.
Rating: - relient k christmas
A GREEEEAAAAAAT CD! These guys are so talented and amazing. A very funny rendition of the 12 days of Christmas as well as some not so average Christmas season songs mixes things up and makes it a great addition to your Christmas music selection! I must have listened to it at least 10 times the first week I had it! :)
Rating: - SO GREAT!
if you like Relient K, then you will LOVE this Christmas album! if you like great harmonies and music that is reminicient of the Beach Boys, then this band is for you! i listened this album to death this past christmas and shared lots of the songs off of it with friends during the holidays. My only disappointment was that in their awesome acapella version of "Auld Lang Syne", the band members started talking in the middle...otherwise, though, LOVE IT!
Rating: - Makes me smile
I really enjoyed this CD. It makes me smile and gives me energy. I even played it into January because I didn't want to stop listening to it. The bonus song at the end of the CD really makes me laugh.

Fun and more fun on this music CD. Relient K is a super band who appeals to a wide range of ages. My household has ages from 7 to 65 and we ALL love this album.
