Starting off almost by chance as a one-man-project and rapidly growing thanks largely to internet buzz, Passion Pit have finally released their second full-length. ‘Gossamer‘ proves their ease in churning electro-pop gems such as the super “I’ll Be Alright“, “Take A Walk” and “Constant Conversation” said Mario.
Thom continued “I don’t think anyone doubted that ‘Manners‘ was a once-off. Michael Angelakos’ ear for a melody and soulful falsetto tones meet shimmering retro synths on ‘Gossamer’ and was more than a few steps forward from where’ Manners’ left off. The intro to “Take A Walk” is an inspired and deserved stand-alone intrumental even before the track gets going.”
Cougar‘s own Jazmin added that “it may have been a long wait between ‘Manners‘ and this second Passion Pit album, but it was most definitely worth being patient. ‘Gossamer‘ is undoubtedly one of the best albums to have come out of 2012, with brilliant singalongs like ‘Carried Away‘ and a perfect combination of electro-pop. Any party that this album is playing, I’ll definitely be dancing“.
