Le Tigre - Feminist Sweepstakes

Review by solehah amir

Le Tigre's third album, Feminist Sweepstakes, is a powerful and provocative collection of electroclash anthems that tackle issues of gender, sexuality, and politics with wit, humor, and righteous anger. From the opening track, "LT Tour Theme," which features a sample of Gloria Steinem's famous quote "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle," to the closing song, "Keep on Livin'," which urges listeners to stay strong in the face of adversity, the album is a call to arms for anyone who believes in equality and justice.

The trio of Kathleen Hanna, Johanna Fateman, and JD Samson are in top form on this album, blending punk rock energy with electronic beats and catchy hooks. Songs like "New Kicks" and "Well Well Well" are danceable and infectious, while tracks like "FYR" and "Tres Bien" are more experimental and avant-garde. The lyrics are sharp and insightful, addressing issues such as sexual harassment, media manipulation, and the need for intersectional feminism.

One doesn't have to subscribe to the entirety of the band's message to enjoy the music & take something from it. Art...

Unique and immortal. Love them with the same intensity years and years later (and it’s 2022).

I am a Republican and I think Kathleen Hanna is the most underrated female in American music in my life. I am 51 and I crank Julie Ruin.
