"Lay Down" was the song that announced Hills End, the 2016 debut album from Australian rockers DMA's, and it got its first spin on Annie Mac's BBC show. The writing credit is shared four ways, between Tommy O'Dell, Johnny Took, Matthew Mason and Patrick Harrowsmith.

Stereogum's Cady Siregar heard jangly, dreamy shoegaze tangled up with noise that gives no ground, and the song had legs at home: by 2019 it had gone gold in Australia.
