"The man who holds the record for the longest solo concert (27 hours) confines himself to a 36-minute suite of minor key-board versions of Crimbo classics, applying klezmer chords to Jingle Bells. His buddy Jarvis Cocker breathily recites In The Bleak Midwinter, Feist co-writes and sings snug ballad The Bannister Bough and both guest on the romantic Snow Is Falling In Manhattan by the late David Berman, before Auld Lang Mynor cautiously welcomes the new year".

"A Very Chilly Christmas is a remarkable album. It's a collection of 16 Christmas tunes, the titles of 15 of which will be familiar but the presentation of which will be surprising, fascinating, enlivening and occasionally highly amusing to all ... If you've a taste for the quirky, if you want a tasteful yet very Christmassy soundtrack to your festive holiday or if you're just curious, you'll love A Very Chilly Christmas from Chilly Gonzales".

"Refreshingly different Yuletidings from Cologne-based Canadian ... [Gonzalez] strips the fireside warmth from a set of traditional carols by placing them in minor-key arrangements, alongside sombre readings of Wham! and Mariah Carey. The best moments coincide with the arrival of Feist and Jarvis Cocker; the formers' co-write with Gonzalez, "The Banister Bough", is a shivery meditation; Cocker's spoken-word imprint on "In The Bleak Midwinter" are deepened by cello. Both guests excel on a lovely version of the late David Berman's "Snow Is Falling In Manhattan"".
