What a step back for mankind...

They used to have a reputation for average live shows but they've improved a lot since then. Have you listened to their album 'Manners' by the way? That'll explain it to you. If you don't like them, well, they're clearly not your type of music, but Passion Pit are certainly NOT one of the worst bands of the decade. The reason why most people like them is because they have a talent for writing memorable pop songs with catchy hooks and synth lines, and most importantly do it the way it should be done. I think they are one of the most refreshing bands to emerge in recent years.

I thought they were MGMT when I first heard them, so I wouldn't say they are THAT refreshing. They are very catchy though, Sleepyhead is a great song.
