If you weren’t aware, I spent most of my early twenties listening to a lot of pop punk. I’m not ashamed to say it either; Ok maybe just a little ashamed… There was just something about upbeat rock songs and super catchy hooks, that I couldn’t resist. Fast forward to 2008 when Marvinh forwarded me a song he found cruising the web, it was Sleepy Head by Passion Pit. I was instantaniously hooked, mega-catch and very danceable; I desperately needed more. I quickly found their ep. which stayed on blast for the remainder of the year. It sorta took me back the days when I attended festivals like Bamboozle Skate and Surf Fest in Asbury Park, where i’d sing along at the top of my lungs as bands like The Starting Line and New Found Glory graced the stage. Anyhow, Passion Pit recently released the first single off of their debut full length entitled The Reeling, and it seems I’m hooked again. The album comes out next month and I can’t wait! Album of the summer? Possibly!
