Exclusive Interview: Passion Pit


I typically don't give back stories on interviews, but I first contacted Passion Pit about an interview in early January 2009. As happens from time-to-time, bands blow-up in the midst of the process, and sites like this become a back burner or forgotten altogether. No hard feelings - it is the way the business goes. But a funny thing happened when I reached out to the band in June to see about resurrecting the interview ... it came back to life.

So I am more than a little happy to bring the readers of DeadJournalist.com this interview with Passion Pit - one of the hottest (and best) bands of 2009.
