Beachy guitar licks abound in The End, transposing some pretty emo break-up lyricisms into the festival commanding scope that defined The Jezabels big-time breakthrough in 2011. It’s by the numbers for the most part, tapping melodrama and measured bombast to create potency. The guitar tone doesn’t quite fit, like the band is searching for the antithesis of a delay-soaked U2 fare. Still, festival-goers could do a lot worse when it comes to arm-in-arm sing-alongs.
