On talk Normal’s sophomore LP Sunshine, the Brooklyn duo unveils
songs that sparkle with melody and dissonance. Jarring rhythms and
feedback-drenched guitar tones lace Sunshine’s nine surprisingly
songful tunes, creating a sound informed by their predecessors
(Cocteau twins, Velvet Underground, Laurie Anderson) yet strikingly
new. Featuring Sarah Register’s flowing, nearly drony riffs and Andrya
Ambro’s finely choreographed beats, the end result is a natural sonic
cohesion. It may not be the sunshine you’re used to … but rays within
which you’ll want to bask.
