I Surrender Records and ska punk band We Are The Union have released “Yr Always Alone (On Christmas)”, a sullen look at the most joyful time of the year. The track, which reminds listeners that the holidays aren’t always what they’re cracked up to be, is featured on the label’s forthcoming holiday compilation, I Surrender Sleighs, out December 2nd. The track is accompanied by a music video, directed by Rae Mystic. Watch it now below.
The band said of the song, “’Yr Always Alone (On Christmas)’ is almost not a holiday song. It’s a fairly cynical take on loneliness as a consequence of selfishness, but it’s centered around Christmas as a focal point. The holidays are a time when so many people come together, so it seemed like the perfect setting for a story about being alone.”
I Surrender Sleighs, a holiday compilation featuring 9 original tracks from Valencia, Vinnie Caruana, We Are The Union, Punchline, and more, is set to be released on December 2nd.
