Punk Rawk Christmas

In 2009, following ten years of limited edition Christmas-themed singles and digital downloads, MxPx collected all their previous holiday material into the compilation Punk Rawk Christmas through the band's own record label Rock City Recording Company. This version of the record was released on CD and sold through Amazon as well as the band's official website.{{cite web|url=https://www.punknews.org/article/36133/mxpx-to-release-punk-rawk-christmas|work=PunkNews.org|author=Aubin Paul|date=2009 |accessdate=June 17, 2021|title=MxPx to release "Punk Rawk Christmas"|publisher= Punknews.org}} It was also made available on digital download platforms and later digital streaming platforms. Simultaneously, a limited edition 7-inch record was released under the same title, featuring two songs from the CD and two demo versions exclusive to the seven-inch.{{cite web|url=http://www.mxpx.com/news_6812|work=MxPx.com|author=MxPx|date=November 30, 2009|accessdate=June 17, 2021|title="Punk Rawk Christmas" is HERE|publisher=MxPx|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20091219215702/http://www.mxpx.com/news_6812|archivedate=December 19, 2009}}

Shortly after the album's release Mike Herrera spoke with Alternative Press and explained the song "Christmas Night of the Living Dead" was re-titled, against his knowledge, to "Christmas Night of Zombies" when it originally appeared on the 2003 A Santa Cause compilation.{{cite web|url=https://www.altpress.com/features/txt_mxpx/|work=Alternative Press|author=Staff|date=December 14, 2009|accessdate=June 17, 2021|title=Track-By-Track: MxPx's Punk Rawk Christmas|publisher=Alternative Press Magazine, Inc}}

In December 2018, MxPx released a new Christmas song titled "December" and concurrently removed the full length version of the Punk Rawk Christmas album from digital platforms, replacing it with an EP of the same title. This EP features December and only five other tracks found on full length version of Punk Rawk Christmas.{{cite web|url=https://www.altpress.com/news/mxpx-december-christmas-song-pierre-bouvier-emily-whitehurst/|work=Alternative Press|author=Rachel Campbell|date=November 29, 2018 |accessdate=June 17, 2021|title=MxPx drop holiday song with Simple Plan's Pierre Bouvier, more|publisher=Alternative Press Magazine, Inc}}

A music video for the song Gimme Christmas was directed by Mark Nash and Chris Craryand. It was released on YouTube on December 5, 2007 when Gimme Christmas was original released as a single.{{cite web|url=https://imvdb.com/video/mxpx/gimme-christmas |work=IMVDb|author=IMVDb|date=2021|accessdate=June 17, 2021|title=MxPx - Gimme Christmas (2007)|publisher=IMVDb}}
