Passion Pit 'The Reeling'

• 22nd Apr 2009

'The Reeling' is the lead track from the band's debut album 'Manners'. Following on from where the much-lauded 'Chunk of Change EP' which was released last year in the US and in February in the UK. The unmastered EP made a lot of promises which 'Manners' is ready to keep.

A real deal album in other words, one that delivers on the blissful and bright promises of early fan favorites like “Sleepyhead.” It took nearly two months of “explosive” off-the-cuff sessions with producer Chris Zane (Les Savy Fav, The Walkmen) to get there—everything was written and recorded on the fly—but 'Manners' is exactly that, an irresistible, filler-free glimpse into the mind of a man who’d like to unleash his very own Pet Sounds someday.
