"Tell 'Em" is the debut single by American music duo Sleigh Bells, released on April 28, 2010. It is from their debut album "Treats", and appears as the album's opening track. The song was written by Derek E. Miller and sung by Alexis Krauss.
Prior to the album's release, the track was available as a free download on April 28, 2010, via the Mom + Pop website. It was well received by critics, and frequently noted as a highlight of the album. The song was released to U.S. radio stations on April 28, 2010, but it failed to enter any charts.
Miller described the song as being "preach-y without being righteous. It's like we're disappointed but optimistic." The song's lyrics detail a disappointment in today's youths and an encouragement for teens to strive to be better, and it was one of the last to be recorded for the album.
