Editorial Reviews
Ranked #10 in Spin's Top 20 Albums of the Year [2000].
Spin (01/01/2001)
3.5 stars out of 5 - ...mines the frivolity and ferocity of rock&roll tradition....Le Tigre muscle up their righteous rebel-girl aggression with the rhythmic power of rock&roll verities.
Rolling Stone (03/30/2000)
9 out of 10 - ...Le Tigre is one funny band, and their album sparkles with a joie de vivre more bubbly than pink champagne....takes the listener on an urban adventure, using humor and poetic description...
Spin (03/01/2000)
4 out of 5 - ...incorporates samples and canned drum beats...into its new wave and punk rock. But in everything from the raw, angry guitars...to the raunchy R&B romp...it's [Kathleen] Hanna's voice that stands out, inspiring in its power and force...
Alternative Press (02/01/2000)
...Experimental and polemic as well as grooving, Le Tigre are smart enough to let their wit sharpen their arguments, and the result is fine indeed.
NME (01/15/2000)
...revives the sassy attitude of '60s girl groups but also brilliantly updates their infectious, sashaying groove....you can definately dance to it. - Rating: A-
Entertainment Weekly (11/19/1999)
4 stars out of 5 - ...Hanna's voice can still rasp and bark....Crude, effective sampling and nimble girl-group tunes give LE TIGRE a constant kick...
Uncut (03/01/2000)
...Ups the ante for the booty and the brain with a set of lo-fi-dance-punk....a genuine hip shaker.
