Kindred

by Passion Pit

Kindred cover art

Following a highly publicized and turbulent period confronting bipolar disorder, Michael Angelakos channels his recovery into the most overtly optimistic and domestic record of his career. The frenetic, maximalist layering of previous releases is slightly streamlined, focusing on clearer vocal melodies and bright, soaring synthesizer hooks. The lyricism acts as a sincere, joyous celebration of his marriage and support system.
