With bands like Echo and the Bunnymen, Depeche Mode, and the Cure, it’s pretty obvious why time and again fledgling rock groups have appropriated the musical aesthetic of their compatriots. White Lies, a London based trio formerly known as Fear of Flying, is no exception to the rule. Featuring a nostalgic veneer of haunting melodies, morbid song titles, and even more melancholic lyrics, the outfit’s U.S. debut, “To Lose My Life...
