Gruff Rhys: "Slashed Wrists This Christmas":
Here's a nice antidote to the She & Him Christmas album for the Scrooges among us. Super Furry Animals frontman Gruff Rhys is putting out an "alternative" Christmas EP called Athiest Xmas on December 19. Its three tracks are appropriately titled "Post Apocalypse Christmas", "At the End of the Line", and "Slashed Wrists This Christmas". Ho Ho Ho! Signed copies of the vinyl 12" version will be available on Gruff Rhys' website. Listen to "Slashed Wrists" above.
