Le Tigre BACK! With Christina Aguilera...?

I know this sounds like the punchline to a hilarious riot grrl joke*, but it's actually true! Not only is Le Tigre off of their "hiatus", as hinted this spring in a blog post from Kathleen Hannah, they are working with Christina Aguilera on her new album. I can't imagine what a Le Tigre-Christina Aguilera collaboration will sound like, but Christina has also tapped Goldfrapp and Ladytron to assist with this album, so it is a safe bet that its going to be one hell of a party record. I'm more interested in the rumored DVD documentary of Le Tigre that the band has been workin on, as well as any possiblity of a new album. Perhaps Christina will inspire them... or maybe this outfit from her last Rolling Stone cover will? C'mon Le Tigre, we need some economic stimulus, and a new album would sell like hotcakes - do it for America!

unless the self-criticism session takes longer or someone
unexpectedly hitch-hikes to San Francisco."
