Le Tigre is an American electroclash band, formed by Kathleen Hanna (formerly of Bikini Kill) and Johanna Fateman in 1998 in New York City. It also featured Sadie Benning from 1998 until 2001, and JD Samson for the rest of the group's run. Le Tigre is known for its left-wing sociopolitical lyrics, dealing with issues of feminism and the LGBT community.
Initially envisioned as a live backup band for Hanna's solo project Julie Ruin, Le Tigre mixed the politics and feminism of riot grrrl with electronic samples and lo-fi beats. Other members included Fateman and Samson. Samson joined Le Tigre as a full member when co-founder Benning left the band before the Feminist Sweepstakes album was recorded. Samson had previously worked with the band as a roadie and the operator of Benning's slide show during live performances in support of their first record. The self-proclaimed "underground electro-feminist performance artists" combined visuals, music and dance in their performances. Samson is a gay rights activist, and the excerpts in "New Kicks" are from an actual protest that Samson recorded herself. Hanna is a public speaker against sexual abuse.

Plot: "don't need you" is a documentary film that tells the story of the origins of Riot Grrrl in the American independent music scene of the 1990s, and how this feminist movement evolved into a revolutionary underground network of education and self-awareness through music, writing, activism, and women-friendly community. The film gives audiences a chance to meet key figures in the development of Riot Grrrl and see for themselves how these women have changed the history of music and feminism forever. The film features one-on-one interviews interspersed with rare, archival materials, including original Riot Grrrl fanzines, flyers, and photographs, as well as seldom seen footage from pioneering Riot Grrrl bands like Bikini Kill, Heavens to Betsy, and Bratmobile.

Genres: Comedy,I'm in the sky when I'm on the floor
The world's a mess and yr my only cure
There's no time for me to act mature
The only words I know are "more, more" and "more"
No one to criticize me then
No one to criticize
No one to criticize me then

There's no fear when I'm in my room
It's so clear and I know just what I want to do
All day bedroom dancing
