MUSIC—Sounding like the best of a classic rock station, Sweden’s Graveyard takes Janis Joplin, Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, and all your favorite guitar riffs, mixes them in a blender made of kick-ass, and commands you to defy their foot-stomping enticements. Their distinctive sound has never been more apparent than on their newest album, Innocence & Decadence. Rock out! COURTNEY FERGUSON

FILM—In a country with one boring-ass version of Santa Claus, it’s nice to be reminded that in other countries, Santa can be fucking scary. And thus: 2010’s Finnish horror-comedy Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale, a cult favorite in which a dumb little kid discovers the sinister truth behind Christmas. In short: Santa’s coming for you.
