The Band : Happy Ending
Song: "Lay Down Your Head"
New York's Happy Ending has created a pleasing brand of Coldplay-esque indie rock.
"Lay Your Head Down" begins lightly with acoustic guitar and emotive vocals yearning for a past love. The verse then builds dramatically with synths characteristic of the English band Keane. Lo and behold, this awesome build-up evaporates into a very anti-climatic and bland chorus. Ironically, the subsequent choruses are very intense and the band manages to capture an anthemic, indie rock sound.
