Winter Albums?

What (non-Christmas) songs evoke thoughts/images of the winter season and/or Christmas-time for you?

For example, the debut Fleet Foxes album feels especially like it should be listened to during winter, as does the album Clarity (by Jimmy Eat World).

Damnation by Opeth.

Michigan by Sufjan Stevens.

dont fear the reaper--blue oyster cult

Skeleton key--days of the new

Anything by Sigur Ros, obviously. All I think about is Iceland and Snow.

First time I heard Sigur Ros I was driving through mountains, but no snow at the time... was gorgeous.

9 crimes by Damien Rice

a long December by counting crows (always listen to it on new years morning)

Same here. And nice; I really enjoy listening to them when I'm driving and able to soak in whatever scenery is around me.
