Today's Quick Mention:  Well, despite our best efforts Team Dine And Dash could only manage a third place finish at the Pluckers Trivia Finals last night.  Guess this means we're going to have to keep going back and drinking and eating until we get another shot.  Bummer.

A few weeks back I stuck a new Passion Pit track in the podcast and then proceeded to mostly buy into all the hype that's been following them around for a while.  But, now another single has arrived and convinced me to just completely fall in love.  Make a note (if you haven't already) to pick up their debut LP Manners when it gets released on May 19.  Enjoy.

:Passion Pit - Moth's Wings:  One of the main reasons I hadn't completely jumped on the bandwagon until now was that I had kind of suspected Passion Pit would only ever deliver oddly vocalized, synth-drenched dance numbers that might or might not have a hook.  Here though, they show off a different side, and surprisingly it isn't filled with anything I just mentioned.  It's just a pretty little anthem that's best suited for headphones.
