Feminist punk icon Kathleen Hanna has been busy in recent years-- collaborating on the Riot Grrrl Collection at NYU's Bobst Library, making forays into interesting pockets of the art world, speaking out in support of Planned Parenthood and Pussy Riot. But new songs have been rare. (In the upcoming Hanna documentary The Punk Singer, she reveals that her musical hiatus was a result of a battle with Lyme Disease.)

At last, Hanna's new band the Julie Ruin, who first surfaced a few years ago, have detailed their much-anticipated debut full-length, Run Fast. It's out September 3 via the band's own TJR Records and will be distributed by Dischord. Hear the album opener "Oh Come On" above. This follows the previously shared "Girls Like Us", which will also appear on the record. Check out the Run Fast cover art below.

Hanna first used the Julie Ruin moniker for her incredible 1997 lo-fi album of the same name, a solo LP released then via Kill Rock Stars. In 2010, with her post-Bikini Kill band Le Tigre on pause, she began assembling the Julie Ruin's new lineup. The band includes bassist Kathi Wilcox (of Bikini Kill), keyboardist Kenny Mellman (of Kiki and Herb), drummer Carmine Covelli, and guitarist Sara Landeau (who Hanna met through Girls Rock Camp).

The Run Fast track "Just My Kind" was mixed by James Murphy. The band will tour this fall.

In other news, Kathleen Hanna and Kathi Wilcox have produced a Bikini Kill-inspired fashion line for VFiles, a Manhattan-based webstore and boutique. It will include replications of the "Kill Me" T-shirt dress Hanna wore 20 years ago, and other pieces designed by Hanna and Wilcox. The line coincides with the release of the Riot Girl Collection book from Feminist Press.
