Video of "in a Strangeland".
Sort of has no sense of humor. It's just these two women who could totally punch you to death, playing music.
Pitchfork review :P

Talk Normal is churny yowly Brooklyn noise rock duo Andrya Ambro and Sarah Register. They've been around longer than I thought before my favorite Other Music geek Karen, and Marnie Stern, recommended them. I actually bought a CD. I may have to go back for their earlier EPs, although they may be less structurally sound.
