Passion Pit’s music has always carried traces of neon ’80s synthpop, but from the cover art to the song titles, new album Kindred is an explicitly nostalgic callback to Michael Angelakos’ childhood years — the good, bad, and ugly of it all. (As always, even his darkest emotions are shrouded in bright, beautiful music.) We’ve heard “Lifted Up (1985),” “Where The Sky Hangs,” and “Until We Can’t (Let’s Go).” Now stream the whole album at iTunes Radio.

Kindred is out 4/21 via Columbia.
