First Impressions:
- While Michael Angelakos vocals aren’t exactly to die for, he more than makes up for it with his intricate lyricism. In “Moth’s Wings,” Angelakos sings a metaphor-filled letter to a drifting friend: “You come beating like moths wings/spastic and violently wiping me into a storm/shaking me down to the core/but you run away from me/and you’ve left me shimmering/like diamond wedding rings/spinning dizzily down on the floor.”

- “Fold In Your Hands” is like a shot of pop straight into the veins that leaves you in a trance of synth. With quick angst, Angelakos announces, “Leave me alone/leave me alone/leave me alone I’m fine,” as the track progresses into a crash of synthesizers and high pitch chants.

- Passion Pit retains its synth pop sound. If anything, Manners is a more developed version of Chunk of Change: smarter lyrics, bolder beats and better mixes, aside from the returning “Sleepyhead.”

Key Tracks:
“Moth’s Wings,” “Folds In Your Hands,” “Sleepyhead”

Prediction:
If you liked Chunks of Change, chances are you’ll like Manners. Filled with danceable tracks perfect for a sunny afternoon spent thinking about the complexities of life, Passion Pit’s first full-length is a definite crawl out of the “sandbox.”
