A sextet from Utah, Voice Male performs all of the Christmas standards with aplomb, and as well as several idiosyncratic tracks that reveal a mischievious side to their natures. Two poems (?), one of which, 'The Christmas Tree Was Green And Bright,' mentions the Swedish bikini team (?) and dismisses any notion of predicatability coming from this group, gives way to a stellar 'Angels We Have Heard On High'; 'Homeless' comforts us with the true meaning of Christmas. The unexpected countermelodies of 'O Holy Night' and 'We Wish You A Merry Christmas' are just two examples of the creative flourishes that ornament these familiar carols, elevating them from the ordinary to the distinctive.
