Okay, so, finally I now hear this thing.
*listens*
Hahahah. It's Tommy Stone's "People Rocking People" song crossed with a Bugle Boy ad from 1993! This should be the opening credit theme for the world's worst Afterschool Special.
I want to rub this song's face in crunchy underwear.

Or maybe the really tragic thing is how all the criticisms of Le Tigre anyone ever made that were borderline, a little bit harsh or even way out of order, pretty much hold true for this song.

2004 - "Peace! Now! Peace! Now!"

I suspect the Le Tigre single will not get to number two in the charts.

So, I'm not feeling any extreme hatred for this track. It sounds like a sequel to "Dyke March 2001" with big/clean mainstream production. The political rhetoric? This isn't really a surprise coming from Kathleen Hanna. Bizarre choice for a single, though.

Also: I listened just long enough to hear K-Han quote Eleanor Roosevelt: "It's not enough to just talk about peace, you have to believe in it. And it's not enought to just believe in peace, you have to do something about it. And that's what we're doing: doing something about it!" What? By putting out a shitty, facile song?

Still, bad call. Very bad call. I can think of a lot of records that got fucked over commercially by releasing a weak first single, and I predict that this will cripple the record's sales.
Le Tigre probably felt that it was important to get this song out there before the RNC. I can't think of any other rational motivation.
