Kindred (Passion Pit album)

Kindred is the third studio album by American electropop band Passion Pit, released on April 17, 2015, through Columbia Records. The album was written, produced, and recorded primarily by Michael Angelakos, the band's frontman.

Kindred features a sound that builds upon Passion Pit's signature blend of synth-pop, indie rock, and electronic music, but explores themes of family, love, and the future. Lyrically, Angelakos delves into his personal experiences and anxieties, creating a more introspective and vulnerable album compared to their previous work.

The album spawned the singles "Lifted Up (1985)", "Until We Can't (Let's Go)" and "Where the Sky Hangs". It received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its production, Angelakos' songwriting, and its exploration of personal themes. Kindred debuted at number 21 on the Billboard 200 chart in the United States.
