== Track Record And Criteria ==
*This list contains all of HMHB's songs that made the Festive Fifty chart, in the order in which they appeared. All, with the exception of the Peel Session tracks, were on the Probe Plus label. Their highest entry was in 2018, when they just missed the top spot, and in the same chart they had four entries, making their highest tally ever. Two of their songs made the chart in successive years in both the Peel Session and LP versions, in addition to which another one entered as a session track alone. Due to the band going on hiatus, there was a 10-year gap between their second and third entries.
