Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos unveils a bundle of new material

Between the final days of 2014 and today, Passion Pit frontman Michael Angelakos has been unveiling a number of new solo tracks under the pseudonym Eastern Shift.

Some of the tracks, which allegedly date back as far as 2007, can now be streamed in full via the vocalist's own Soundcloud page.

Currently there has been no word from Angelakos as to what purpose these new tracks serve, but from what we can tell, it just looks like he wants to get some reaction to some of his shelved recordings.

You can listen to the whole batch here or hear a select few in the players below.
