I have an overwhelming feeling that I may be more than a little late on finding out about Passion Pit. Even the BBC has called them the sound of 2009. I’m not quite sure how the BBC fits into the U.K. mainstream media as far as music goes but I think it’s safe to say you may already know about them. In fact, one of my friends saw a poster for their album Chunk of Change on his way to the grocery store.

Nevertheless, it’s music worth posting, so here are a few of the standout songs from the album and a goofy video.
