Kate Nash slog stort igennem før hun var 20 og har siden da kæmpet bravt for at slippe ud af skyggen fra Lily Allen, mens hun samtidig har gjort oprør mod alt det hun var blevet kendt på. Nu er Kate 25 og er droppet af sit pladeselskab, så denne udgivelse er blevet til vha. crowd-funding - noget vi ser kunstnere stadig hyppigere tyer til. Stilmæssigt er Nash længere fra den nuttede lillepige-debut end nogensinde. "Girltalk" dufter af The Clash og af Phil Spectors Wall of Sound, og på "Rap for rejection" rapper hun (ja, du læste rigtigt): <i>"You're trying to tell me sexism doesn't exist/If it doesn't exist, then what the fuck is this?/How many boys will it destroy?/How many girls and boys will it annoy?"</i>.

"Dropping the slick production of her previous album, Nash jumps headlong into a punk- and garage rock-influenced aesthetic that has more in common with such distortion-heavy guitar bands as the Raveonettes, the Kills, and the Dum Dum Girls than it does the neo-soul of the late Winehouse. In many ways, the album seems much more like the D.I.Y.-debut of a new indie rock band than the third effort of an established singer/songwriter".

"Indeed, there are occasions on Girl Talk when we get glimpses of what another, better Kate Nash indie rock album would have sounded like. Conventional Girl is atypical in that it actually resembles a fully-realised song, as opposed to a bunch of half-formed melodic ideas thrown together in the hope that the novelty of hearing Nash screaming her vocals through a distorted microphone would be enough to see them through".
