As previously reported, Passion Pit return with their long-awaited sophomore LP, Gossamer, on July 24th via Columbia Records. Now, the band has issued the first listen off the LP with “Take A Walk”. Originally debuted at last year’s Moogfest, the sticky stomper quells and quakes with enough of a throwback sound to Manners to help any fans segue into the new stuff. Take a listen below.
