2012 has been a great year so far for developing acts because many of indie’s major artists have been quiet. That is about to chance, with an onslaught of higher-profile people dropping albums over the next two months. Passion Pit’s “Gossamer” comes next Tuesday. This album is brighter and lighter than it’s predecessor. Their “Take A Walk” single has become a hit, and this is my next fave track. The title along makes you want to give it a listen. It has a bit of the “Take A Walk” vibe with a driving beat and great melody, but it’s stands quite nicely on its own.

Great rating for Gossamer! I’m really getting into it. After reading this article on Pitchfork (http://bit.ly/PU7Svc), I have so much more respect for these guys. True artists.
