Passion Pit

Since I was talking about “Sleepyhead” earlier, I figured I’d let you in on the treasure that is Passion Pit. You’ve probably heard a couple of their songs before like “Sleepyhead” and “Little Secrets” and never really bothered to listen to the rest of the album. So I am here to rectify the situation and show you the light...all of their songs are incredible. I’m not entirely sure what genre they would fall into; I don’t think I’d quite consider them dub-step, but alternative is much too broad. I suppose you could consider them a meld of the two if you really wanted, and that might be the closest you could get. Whatever you want to call them, they have a light sound that reminds me a little of summertime and always makes me want to start grooving. If you can listen to this entire album without a strong desire to dance, then you probably don’t have a soul. It’s harsh, but I feel confident that you’ll be moving by the second song, so I’m not too worried about it.
