[lastfm]Passion Pit[/lastfm] front man, Michael Angelakos says he was listening to a lot of “softer rock” when he first heard the sweeping [lastfm]Smashing Pumpkins[/lastfm] song “Tonight, Tonight.” Main Pumpkin, [lastfm]Billy Corgan[/lastfm]’s high wounded voice, a quiet/loud dynamic – in a dramatic setting replete with stings.
Passion Pit’s re-crafting of the song strips away some of the ambitious bombast, losing the strings but none of the business. Angelakos’ high voice fits comfortably with Corgan’s lyrics, but instead of a piece of grandiose rock, he’s instead created a synthy underwater symphony.
