Despite our friend Derek's (formerly of Good Weather For Airstrikes) appeals for our support of Cambridge, MA's Passion Pit (he breathlessly described them as "the best new band of the last whatever and the authors of the best album of 2009"), I wasn't too wowed by the Chunk of Change EP, with the notable exception of PP's breakout single "Sleepyhead."Everyone has and will continue to compare P...

A couple months back, Scott and Amrit ventured out to catch Passion Pit at Pianos. Since then, the Boston Frenchkiss signees have continued popping up here/there. The consensus (at least around here, like in my kitchen) is that their best song is "Sleepyhead."

Passion Pit - "Cuddle Fuddle". Sometimes I think of hearts like gas-lamps. I don't understand how gas-lamps work, so bear with me. Anyway, you got a big container of ether & spirits & fumes, and then you got all these tubes and valves to manage the stuff. And if a valve blows out, well - uh, yikes.
