Hot off Gossamer 's #4 debut on the Billboard Charts last week, Passion Pit has released a sensual clip for their sophomore album's R&B flavored single, "Constant Conversations." The video throws a somber Michael Angelakos' into the middle of a high-society day party. Though everyone at this Gatsby-like affair is dressed in their Sunday best, Angelakos seems distracted in his own world. Here's to hoping he gets through it all, both here and in real life, so Passion Pit can get back to work on world domination. Gossamer [...]
As word continues to spread about the unstable metal condition of Michael Angelakos, we can now see some of that frustration in a visual form in the video for “Constant Conversations”. With a slew of upper class, spoiled brats, the Passion Pit frontman wades around like a dead body, giving no attention to anyone. While we’re not quite sure what this affair is about (maybe someone just died?), it does seem to have an overarching somber feel to it. Hopefully soon, Angelakos can return completely focused on getting Passion Pit continued world dominance. Gossamer [...]

Passion Pit has just debuted a new music video for Gossamer tune "Constant Conversations." The clip features actors Analeigh Tipton, Taryn Manning, Roger Guenveur Smith and Peter Bogdanovichblah. It's decadent and vulnerable and reminds us a bit of an F. Scott Fitzgerald piece. Check out the music video for "Constant Conversations" below then let us know what you think of it in the comments.
Passion Pit's long-awaited sophomore record 'Gossamer' is characterized by incandescent, pulsating dance tunes and tortured lyrics. Columbia Records, 2012 8.5 / 10.0 Boston-based electropop act Passion Pit have released their new album, Gossamer, and if you scan the reviews and articles that have already been written about the record, you might notice [...]

For this laid back tune " Constant Conversations " from their recently released album Gossamer , Passion Pit gives us country club visuals, bleached by a nostalgic sun, sedated by the slow mo camera. There's a fascinating awkwardness to the setting, between Hogwarts and Ivy League, especially as the hero/singer of the video announces pessimistically at the onset of the video "I'm well enough" - are we in presence of people paradoxically mourning in white? The soft sway of the camera added to the inherent sensuality of the characters pictured conjures up a [...]

Depois do excêntrico vídeo para I'll Be Right , o que impera no novo clipe do Passion Pit é a misturada entre riqueza e conflitos. Enquanto aparentemente tudo corre tranquilo no mundo fino e elegante dos amigos de Michael Angelakos durante uma reuniãozinha regada à champanhe e uísque, nos bastidores o que rola são olhares julgadores, flertes e traições. O vídeo foi dirigido por Dori Oskowitz e conta com a presença do diretor Peter Bogdanovich. Constant Conversations faz parte de Gossamer , álbum que o Passion [...]
Passion Pit sigue promocionando su más reciente -y esperado- álbum de estudio Gossamer . Para continuar con esta inercia, es turno del track “Constant Conversations” , que ya cuenta con un videoclip bajo la dirección de Dori Oskowitz . La canción, que es de beat lento y cadencioso, recibió un tratamiento visual muy elegante con gente de la alta sociedad, con la participación de los actores Peter Bogdanovich, Roger Guenveur Smith, Analeigh Tipton y Taryn Manning. Chequen el [...]
La fiesta careta en algún lugar refinado es el ambiente ideal para Constant Conversations , uno de los tramos más relajados de Gossamer , el último disco de Passion Pit . El video muestra una celebración de alta sociedad con todos los lujos y apariciones de serpientes. El video fue dirigido por Dori Oskowitz .

Passion Pit nos presenta el video de su nuevo sencillo "Constant Conversation" y una de las rolas de su nuevo disco Gossamer con más influencias de R&B. El video fácilmente podría entrar a RichKidsOfInstagram . Enjoy.
Rich people can be stuffy, stuck-up bastards sometimes, but their parties are usually pretty sick. Both points are laid out in Passion Pit 's new video as singer Michael Angelakos trudges through a party in a mansion, checking out various streams of conversation, each one being far more interesting than what I'm doing right now. "Constant Conversations" is taken from Passion Pit 's latest album Gossamer , out now. Connect with Passion Pit : Facebook [...]
Passion Pit bring their brand new video for slow jam track 'Constant Conversations'. This is the band's third single of their sophomore album "Gossamer", already available. The video, directed by Dori Oskowitz shows the 'super party' all the guests are enjoying; it features director and actor Peter Bogdanovich and the band's frontman Michael Angelakos. Click [...]

Four years after the belated Valentine's-Day-gift-turned-hy ped-EP Chunk of Change , the formation of a five member band, a charming debut LP ( Manners ) and popularity and adoration that have made them household names (more like apartment/loft for the young and hip), Michael Angelakos has a lot to be proud of regarding his electro-pop project Passion Pit . But what he has in store for their second [...]
This week is particularly special, and I'll tell you why. One of our favorite albums this year is out today! In addition to the ridiculous amount of great music out this week (perhaps the best week yet this summer), that stunning album we're excited about comes from The Blakes , titled Art of Losses . The album itself moves from The Dandy Warhols' to Modest Mouse and David Bowie-like vocals. The album is inescapable, offering something for every rock genre all the way down to my favorite track (surely to be on our year end lists) titled "Sea [...]

After exploding on to the scene, Passion Pit has finally released the follow-up to their critically-acclaimed, popularly-enjoyed debut album, Manners . Gossamer , their sophomore album, which as far as I can tell is named after the red fur-ball character occasionally seen on Looney Tunes , is a fantastic step for the still-young band. It might not have the blast or the shake of their first album, but as a whole it seems more mature, not necessarily better, just more mature. Where Manners played through as an album laden with danceable numbers, Gossamer explores the [...]

By Brendan Klinkenberg Last week, Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos opened up for a depth-plumbing digital story on Pitchfork . It was a far more candid interview than the relatively quiet musician has ever given, showing a side to him we had never seen before through a stream of personal revelations shedding light on his mentally taxing battles with bipolar disorder, fame, and artistic impulses. It’s a very open, very human piece of journalism, and something that will color the way we listen to Angelakos’ music from here on out. [...]
Passion Pit acaba de estrenar Gossamer , su segundo disco de estudio, que llega tres años después del interesante debut Manners . En esta nueva placa, podrás encontrar doce canciones ejecutadas con un estilo radiante y con espíritu alegre, optimista y muy rítmico. Se trata de un pop electrónico a caballo entre las melodías más pegajosas y el dance ochentero que encuentra un punto de equilibrio perfecto, en el que no se sobrepasan los límites marcados por los extremos de ambos estilos. Aristóteles diría que está en el término medio, lo que se [...]

A few of my favorite new releases this week, including the latest from Passion Pit , the debut from Purity Ring , and a brand new EP from one my big time favorites — The Antlers . As always, be sure to check out Largehearted Boy for the rest of this week's new releases. The Antlers// Undersea [...]

Passion Pit has always been a poison apple — or peach, if you want to maintain "pit" congruity — for frontman Michael Angelakos . He completely indulges his thoughts until bursts of vivid ideas spew forth, but this allows confusion and dread to rush in too. The result is glossy hyper-pop with a pervading pensiveness; it's a delicate balance that has driven the band's music since the beginning, often at the cost of Angelakos' mental health . The thing is, their debut LP Manners was so blissfully blown-out that nobody really noticed. (It also helped [...]
Still fresh off Porter Robinson's language tour, The M Machine keeps the momentum up by releasing an awesome remix to Passion Pit's first single "Take a walk" off their brand new album Gossamer. This is a synth laden remix that offers a beautiful, down-tempo feel to the original single. Check out this great summer rework [...]
