Bomarr’s Wild Xmas 8
If you liked my Bah Humbug compilations and A Crumplebang Christmas, then I’m sure you’ll love Bomarr’s Wild Xmas series. I’d love to say I was inspired by these (earlier ones have a lot of overlap with Bah Humbug) but actually I’ve only just heard of them via Mr Fab of Music for Maniacs blog.…
