Feminist punk icon and original riot grrrl Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill, Le Tigre) returns to “her rightful place leading a noisy bunch of smart pleasure seekers” (NPR) with her band The Julie Ruin. Flowing between guitar-based punk and spunky synths, this is loud, playful, intelligent dance-floor music for a modern age. Filling out The Julie Ruin’s sound are Hanna’s former Bikini Kill bandmate Kathi Wilcox, Kenny Mellman (Kiki and Herb), Carmine Covelli, and Sara Landeau.
