    I was about to blog about these guys, still will, I think. It leaves me utterly cold. I can’t get a handle on it. I don’t get it’s appeal. Either I’m getting old or Passion Pit are actually mutton desperately dressed as lamb.

    ah yeah, i remember growing up with MOH’s warble. reckon the passion pit take is a bit lazy (puts spaceman came travelling into my head a bit..the chinese opera version). i’ve heard another PP song that sounds decent though..
