14 - Pela

“Cavalry”Pela - Anytown Graffiti

Pela do the indie-rock thing with clear roots in epic, U2/Springsteen-style classic rock, to the point where it would sound perfectly natural if Bono or the Boss came in with the vocals at 0:45 on “Cavalry” instead of Billy McCarthy (who, incidentally, sounds like a mix of Brandon Flowers and Alex Kapranos to me).

The YouTube version is live, and it goes into a chaotic collapse at the end that I could live without (maybe you had to be there), but with direct-from-soundboard audio and a high-energy performance, I’m happy to link it.
