The songs became more spiritual in nature, not just in name. Definitely as the album title describes, this one contains probably the most pop culture references of any Relient K CD to date (Thundercats, Mr. Ed, etc.), but songs like 'For the Moment, I Feel Faint,' were honest, sincere looks at faith and God. Deck the Halls, Bruise Your Hand, an Album by Relient K. Released 4 November 2003 on Gotee. Genres: Christmas Music, Pop Punk. Technically this song is by Matthew Thiessen & the Earthquakes, but 'I Hate Christmas Parties' can be found on Relient K's album, Let it Snow Baby.

Let It Snow, Baby.. Let It Reindeer is the second Christmas album by Christian rock band Relient K.
Release[edit]
It was released on October 23, 2007, selling 4,500 copies in its first week. The album is a re-release of the band's Christmas EP, Deck the Halls, Bruise Your Hand, but with seven new songs and some other changes, such as track listing and a new ending to one song. The details were announced by Jesus Freak Hideout on August 21, 2007, and by IGN around the same time.[2][7][8] The album peaked at No. 96 on the Billboard 200 list in its fourth week.
'Silver Bells' was posted on the group's Myspace account on November 7, 2008.[9] A re-issue of the album was released on iTunes on November 18, 2008. It included Relient K's renditions of 'Silver Bells', 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen', and 'O Holy Night', as well as a music video for the band's version of 'Sleigh Ride'. The songs were eventually pulled from iTunes, but have since then been added to Gotee's 2010 Christmas compilation CD: 'Tis The Season To Be Gotee.[10]
Music video[edit]
The band's video for 'Sleigh Ride' was made by Funny Pages Productions. It is an animated video, and the band had mentioned in recent years that they always wanted to do an animated video. It features all of the band members as rabbits in winter. The Matt Thiessen rabbit fails to get the attention of a girl rabbit, which leads the other four band members to steal Santa's sleigh so that he can impress her. After the two take off in the sleigh, Santa tries to get it back by using a giant snowman. After some close calls, the other band members build a snowwoman to draw the snowman off. In the end, they give Santa his sleigh back, and the Ethan Luck rabbit sneaks a present from Santa's sleigh for Matt to give to the girl rabbit. The video was released in November 2008.
Track listing[edit]
