Passion Pit tackles Taco Time trouble

September 18th, 2012

A tale as old as time (and no, we’re not talking Beauty and The Beast): a band sells their music to a large corporation. It’s the debate between upholding the integrity of art and creating music for the sake of creating music versus the act of “selling out”. Guys! Can I just say the game [...]

Passion Pit – “Constant Conversations” (video)

August 1st, 2012

Passion Pit have released a video for, my favourite track off Gossamer, “Constant Conversations.” The mellow, R&B tune is set to a bourgeois backyard party.

It doesn’t come as a surprise, then, that their latest album, Gossamer, took three years to complete. The new collection of songs is just as [...]
