VINYL FORMAT! LE TIGRE's second full-length release delivers the rollerskate jams, sampler-punk and political dance trax you've come to expect from the trio, and it ups the ante for electro-conceptual, feminist pop music everywhere. This time around the LE TIGRE sound seems influenced equally by basement recordings and top-forty electronic production. Sub-bass and breakbeats figure prominently in the loud, live-show oriented song writing on the all-new 12+ tracks of Feminist Sweepstakes. Kathleen Hanna, Joh   [ read more ]

RESTOCK. Yeah!!!! Buzzing guitars, chaotic gang vocals, low resolution samples, and programmed beats reference their punk history and point the way to a feminist future without genre loyalties. While still taking full advantage of the rough edges, Le Tigre's new songs are more structurally ambitious, if not slicker.

VINYL FORMAT. Insound recommended. Le Tigre features Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, Julie Ruin, The Fakes, and Suture), filmmaker Sadie Benning (after this release, Sadie left and was replaced by JD Samson), and Johanna Fateman. The trio use samples, claves, farfisa, a live dj, guitar, voices, and beats to make their poignant-but-danceable music. Their sound touches on conceptual garage, digital anthemic, political sadness, and unfinished soundtracks...a darn good record.
