Christmas Grinches Will Love Stres' Sad-Sack Holiday Carol "Nothing Feels Like Home Anymore"

Local producer Josh "Stres" Bolof was inspired by Darlene Love's classic "Christmas (Baby, Please Come Home)" to write a sad-sack holiday carol of his own. The result, "Nothing Feels Like Home Anymore," employs humming synths and sleigh bells to create an enveloping atmosphere of pure blue loneliness. Some slowcore sample of Love's pining vocals would fit in perfectly. Where's Phil Spector when you need him?

"Nothing Feels Like Home" is available for free download on Stres' Bandcamp page right now. If you're a holiday-hating, SAD-suffering Christmas Grinch like I am, you'll love it. (But seriously, it's a really pretty song).
