The group didn't have to record a set of Christmas songs to cash in. They just wanted to give fans the gift of rock this year.

Gleeful, garage rock-style holiday anthems that should appeal to both longtime Smash Mouth fans and anyone who loves left-of-center Christmas songs.

Yikes. I had too high of hopes. And my hopes weren’t that high. They should really just stick to "All Star." They should have quit while they were ahead.

Slacker
Still featuring the California band's high-energy, somewhat retro-sounding punk-pop sound, The Gift of Rock primarily features a few classic and some lesser-known holiday cover songs. These are fun, somewhat novelty-oriented songs.

Reality TV World
'The Gift of Rock' includes brilliant interpretations of holiday standards old and new and features Steve Harwell, Paul Delisle Greg Camp and Michael Urbano.

Oldies
Smash Mouth delivered their first holiday-themed album with 2005's The Gift of Rock. Still featuring the California band's high-energy, somewhat retro-sounding punk-pop sound.
