1. Passion Pit

1. Passion Pit-
Manners

Luckily I got a hold of this before the hype started because I listened to their EP last year, therefore I was not biased and was able to enjoy this piece of musical magic since its inception. It has been a long time since a debut from an indie artist has reached this much acclaim this fast. Passion Pit is an electronic band that formed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States in 2007. They consist of Michael Angelakos (vocals, keyboards), Ian Hultquist (keyboards, guitar), Ayad Al Adhamy (synth, samples), Jeff Apruzzese (bass, keyboard) and Nate Donmoyer (drums). Passion Pit was a vocab word used in a class Mike took in school. It’s a slang word for a drive-in movie theatre where kids used to go to make out. I have been touting this band all year and think they deserve high marks. Michael released an EP in '08 around his college intended as a valentine for his girlfriend and the rest is history.
