====== The Holidays ======

Alternative Rock/Power Pop

The January/February 1992 issue of //The Cutting Edge// announced that The Holidays had broken up in March of 1991, but they got back together near the end of the year. Another album was apparently planned or in the works, but it was never released (at least under the name of The Holidays).
