Passion Pit – Kindred

"Kindred" is an emotionally rich and sonically expansive album by Passion Pit, known for its vibrant blend of electronic pop and indie rock.

The album delves into themes of love, loss, and self-discovery, with a mix of uplifting and introspective tracks. Songs like "Lifted Up (1985)" and "Where the Sky Hangs" combine shimmering synths, infectious melodies, and Michael Angelakos’ soaring vocals to create a euphoric atmosphere. While "Kindred" maintains the signature energy of Passion Pit, it also displays a more mature, reflective side, with lyrics that explore deeper personal experiences. It’s a beautifully crafted album that balances joy and melancholy in a way only Passion Pit can.
