Eagle and Talon are a girlie duo from Los Angeles that seem to have picked up the mid 90s mantle from the likes of Slant 6, Sleater-Kinney, and Helium. They've got a melodic yet angular (christ I'm tired of that word - any new suggestions would be much appreciated), atonal cacophanous, sweet garagey thing going that doesn't sound much like all the other stuff coming out of El-Lay right about now.
In June, the duo released a full length album called Thracian, which they are actually offering on a "pay what you want" basis here. Be sure if you buy it not to be a total cheap douche and toss them some decent money. A couple of ladies playing occasional shows at the Echo, no matter how much indie cred they have, would probably appreciate a nice meal at the taco truck around the corner. Get some good music that makes you feel like a sexually confused, thrift store shopping, angsty college girl all over again. Okay, maybe that's just me, but still...that's wierdly a good thing.
