Passion Pit are from Massachusetts, USA. It's been a while since a new yankee band caught my ear. Their debut album, Manners will be released on May 18 and I'm eagerly anticipating it. I reckon it has to be awesome after listening to the Chunk of Change EP an absolute arseload of times over the past few weeks. I'd say that if there was a Family Feud-type survey thing regarding Passion Pit's sound, the highest paying answer would have to be dreamy (followed closely by spacey.) Fans of Van She would totally dig this.
Both of the remixes are from artists I'd never heard of before but are fully top-notch in every way. The Knock are from Colchester, UK and are name after a song from UNKLE's first album. Kids at the Bar are from Oklahoma City and have done a bunch of other remixes which I must check out. Anyway...
