Just watched Jingle All the Way and 2 things struck me as particularly weird: 1) The Room seems to have stolen a whole bunch of random bits from this movie?! The “chicken” scene with the Santas, the tie on the head, “you’re my favorite customer”, “you think of everything”…

Thank you @herecomestheflood for the review of our new single! “Although based in Madison, WI, they can be easily mistaken for a UK band, as they channel the melodicism of the Sundays and Belle & Sebastian.”
