Passion Pit Tell Their Tale

Passion Pit started merely as a guy, a computer and an impending Valentine's Day gift. You see, Michael Angelakos wrote the 'Chunk of Change' EP for his girlfriend as a belated V-Day gift, and later took his heartfelt collection to his friends and classmates at Emerson College. Add to that an interest from Frenchkiss records, a backing live band and voila -- a new indie buzz band with a full-on dance rock explosion.

"To make it clear, [Passion Pit] is not the porn film," keyboardist Ayad Al Adhamy exclaims while chuckling at the thought. "It's just where kids would go and make out ... the drive in, movie theater," Angelakas chimes.

Before heading out on tour with the acclaimed Yelle, the guys stopped by the Interface to share their Moog enthusiasm, nerves about the upcoming election and four hot tracks. Catch it all after the jump.
