"This is what democracy looks like; this is what democracy sounds like!" On February 15, 2003, Le Tigre members joined hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers in chanting this refrain to protest the impending US war on Iraq. JD captured it on her mini-disc recorder and the refrain became the rallying cry on "New Kicks', the first single off the band's major label debut and third full-length, "This Island". It's a deliriously addictive, hybrid sound the band calls "feminist punk electronic music"; a mix of drum machine samples, synth hooks, buzzing guitar loops, gang vocals, and foolproof bass lines. Topics include gay marriage, the right to choose, and the war, all in an effort to challenge mainstream media.
