This CD is "different". Totaro tries to do Christmas Carols in more of a 'rockin' way, but for the most part, they sound just like Christmas Carols. I do think it's an original idea and credit Totaro with trying to get some good music out for the Holidays. This is Boston indie rock with a whiny guitars, sounding almost country-ish at times: "Silent Night", and can sound like Billy Corgan on an acoustic guitar: "Away in the Manger" If you're looking for a new Christmas CD, it couldn't hurt to try this.
