#534 Passion Pit - Gossamer

Another of those shimmerey reverbcore albums that are so in right now, making this the most aptly named album of the year. The problem is that this album is so constantly reaching and euphoric that's numbing, like Michael Bay style wall to wall action. As Roger Ebert said, nothing is as boring as constant action: maybe in music nothing is as emotionally vacant as constant emotion. The last song is nice, and there are highlights here and there, but I've just lost patience with this style of music; crying wolf at daily epiphanies has left me worn out of it 2.5/5
