Sleater-Kinney's "Modern Girl" comes from The Woods, the band's seventh album and its first for Sub Pop, released on May 24, 2005. Dave Fridmann recorded and mixed it at Tarbox Road Studios in Cassadaga, New York, over November and December 2004, and he set out to catch the band the way it sounds on stage: much of the album was cut live in the room, with only the vocals and some guitar parts added afterward.
Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker share the guitars and the vocals, Janet Weiss drums and chips in backing vocals, and the writing credit goes to the band as a whole.
