Gossamer, Passion Pit’s second full-length release, comes nearly three years after the band’s debut album, Manners, which itself dropped almost a year after Michael Angelakos’ Valentine’s Day demos caught the attention of music blogs and major labels in 2008. The gestation period, long by today’s publish-or-perish standards, belies a record that wasn’t easy for Angelakos to make. It’s not the easiest to listen to, either: dark topics and production difficulties slam against Passion Pit’s glittery sound to create an album that, while peppered with catchy melodies, is overstuffed and under-edited. Gossamer is a tortured beast, disguised in a crunchy candy shell.

Mine Is Yours is the third full-length studio album from Californian four-piece Cold War Kids. The album was produced by Jacquire King, who has previously worked with Modest Mouse, Tom Waits, Norah Jones and Kings Of Leon. This latest release has a much more expansive sound than the band’s previous work, with complicated and sprawling arrangements taking the place of the stripped-back simplicity of their earlier albums.
