What's It Called?

What's The Story?
Passion Pit are one of those bands that find themselves in the ever-trendy genre of "electro indie pop... I guess?", with the exception that they pulled a Dream Theater and are comprised mostly of students of Berklee. It was the first & most successful single from this year's release Gossamer.

Who's To Blame?
A frontwoman for another excellent indie-pop-I guess? band.

Why ♥ It?
As both this genre & my personal taste often dictate, the sales pitch for this tune is an addictive & catchy hook. The beat marches, the lyrics ramble (really intelligently, if you're into that), and the overall effect is akin to a brisk walk in suburbia on a Spring day.

...I'd think that was clever if the song wasn't called Take A Walk.
Still; solid. Check it out.
