Mostly acoustic, genre's attempted include: Folk, Blues, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Pop, comedy Usually a mix of all that stuff.

The deal with soundclick is that I really use it more as an archive these days than any sort of promotional tool - i.e. it's not updated anywhere near as often, I don't really log in much either. so if you wish to communicate or for more action though you should head to myspace: www.myspace.com/hotshackett Yeah. I have finished an E.P, you can hear most of it over there at myspace or the whole thing at mp3.com.au/scotthackett . Might put it here eventually.

Lyrics

Well Christmas is here, it's time for a holiday,
Time to relax and kick back for a bit,
Though I'm a Tafe student, I hardly do anything anyway
I still welcome the chance to do much less of it.

I look around my street, seeing neighbours on ladders
Swaying dangerously trying to rig up some lights,
And I notice my house kinda ruins the pattern
With no decorations and grass two feet high.

Well it's the season to be jolly, 
It's the only time that you're allowed, 
To have plastic lawn decorations,
And almost draw enough power to send the entire grid down.

I went to Penrith Plaza, Parked three days later
And I noticed their decorations look a little bit tired,
They've gotten dusty and started to fall apart, 
Since they put them up way back in july.

Now I don't believe in god or jesus, 
And as I fight my way through the half rabid throng
I realise the true meaning of christmas is 
To buy hundreds of presents and spend the next year paying your credit card off. 

'Tis the season to give from your wallet, 
& that fat red guy called me a ho,
'cos I didn't put any coins in his bucket
But I told him where that ringing bell could go

My housemate wants some decorations,
Even just a cheap little christmas tree
But I argue neither of us are Pagans,
So why should we celebrate Fertility? 

And at the family christmas party
My cousin Travis gave being Santa a go
But no one could quite explain to me,
Why he made his entrance on a ride  on mower

'Tis the season for senseless traditions,
But I'm still at a loss to explain, 
Why anyone with their wits about them, 
Could derive so much pleasure from singing those carols
Which drive me so fucking insane.
