Passion Pit

The Band/genre we have in mind, and have picked is Passion Pit. Currently they arn't a well known band as they only formed in 2007,but actually this is quite handy as they are not easily recognisable and not many would know their music videos.
"The slang Passion Pit is derived from traditional Variety-speak used in the Hollywood industry publication. The trade used the slang to refer to drive-in theatres, because of their privacy and romantic allure for teenagers."
Passion Pit are described as an american electronic band.Their Genre is Electronic/ alternative/ wonky pop! There are 5 members with musicical accompaniments of a keyboard, bass, drums, synth and guitar. Their record label is Frenchkiss Records, an independant record label based in New YorkThey produce music of the Indie Rock genre .Ive recently bought Passion Pit's newest album "Manners." The song we've chosen is called "Moths Wings"

I can't embed the video because it has been disbaled by Sony Music Entertainment.



This is the video The Reeling. Its the first song i heard from Passion Pit and i wante to listen to it all the time! The video is very creative and exciting :) i dont want to take my eyes away from the screen, encouraging me to hear the music. The footage is edited with animation and moves from location on the streets at night. The singers face is made from paper and the shot changes involve colour paper ripping to reveal something new.
