That song is our most sensitive and emotional, as it’s about how complicated it is to try to have a baby when you’re queer. It came out of this place where I was feeling bad about myself, that I’m not rich enough to have a baby with someone. It’s weird how it’s this dance track and it’s about not getting what you want because of who you are.

JD Samson of MEN, explaining her band’s song “Credit Card Babie$” to the Advocate. Go buy the album so JD can get rich and make babies with Sia already! 

MEN, “Off Our Backs”

You gays, MEN’s album, Talk About Body, is FINALLY coming out tomorrow. Not to be confused with Robyn’s Body Talk - but equally as dance-y. The queer part is totally a bonus. 

Uhh, who wants to play tug-o-war?

Sia, “Clap Your Hands.”

You know how they say when girls date for a long time they start to sorta look or dress alike? We thought that was totes bullshit. However, it seems as though musician GFs can totally sound alike. Sia’s new single from the forthcoming album, We Are Born, sounds pretty similar to her boo, JD Samson’s jams with her band MEN. But hey, we’re not complaining. Bring on the summer dance party music! We can’t wait to hear what their little credit card babies will sound like.

MEN, “Who Am I To Feel So Free”

JD Samson has been pretty busy post-Le Tigre. She and fellow Le Tigre member Johanna Fateman formed the DJ duo MEN, and she had another band, Hirsute. While both projects were equally exciting, they have recently been combined. Now, MEN includes original Hirsute members Michael O’Neill and Ginger Brookes Takahashi (formerly of The Ballet), with contributions from Fateman and artist Emily Roysdon.

We are digging this new track, so basically, we love MEN. Who knew?!
