LE Tigre- This Island


Le Tigre are a feminist Punk/Pop band that was formed by Kathleen Hanna who was formerly a member of the band Bikini Kill, Johanna Fateman. Sadie Benning was the third member for their first cd but was replaced by JD Samson for the following two. This is their most recent album, It was released in 2004. They are currently on hiatus, two of the mebers formed a new project called MEN and the third is currently pursuing things outside of music. They are a really good band for high enegery songs that are fun to sing along to (once you take the time to figure out what she is saying in some of the songs) but if you look a little deeper the lyrics are acually really introspective and politically charged. There are a few week tracks on it (namely the song New Kicks because although it has a good meaning its really kinda boring and not at all catchy.) but the songs TKO, Nanny Nanny Boo Boo, and their cover of I'm So Exited make the whole cd worth it.
