LE TIGRE are touring the country as part of the National BIG DAY OUT Festival.
Their debut effort sounds like the best new wave album not to come from the 1980s.
Le Tigre meld punk, new wave, and hip-hop into a seemingly cute package. Each song is hummable, and frontwoman KATHLEEN HANNA\'s \"valley girl intelligentsia\" voice is perfectly deceptive. \"What\'s Yr Take on Cassavetes\" is the best song about an auteur since KING MISSILE\'s \"Martin Scorsese.\" With BIKINI KILL, Hanna\'s politics were as subtle as the Empire State Building. But with Le Tigre, as with the great TOM TOM CLUB song \"Genius of Love,\" the listener is left not only humming and dancing, but exploring the wealth of reference material hidden within its confines.
