風光橫掃全球、淪陷各大夜店舞池，在這電氣風潮中快速發酵的Justice，由Gaspard Auge和Xavier de Rosnay兩位法國音樂人於2003年組成，以大型十字架為醒目標誌。於法國一場名為Eurovision混音大賽中，以其優異的突出表現，被EdBanger廠牌發掘並納入旗下。2007年發行首張專輯“†＂，迅速於法國突破10萬銷量，並登上美國告示牌電子榜冠軍。媒體排山倒海的好評蜂擁而至，而後更入圍葛萊美『最佳電子/舞曲專輯』、並以單曲「D.A.N.C.E.」雙提名『最佳舞曲錄音』和『最佳短片音樂錄影帶』兩項榮耀！2011年，推出第二張專輯大碟Audio, Video,Disco，兩位鬼才從實驗取樣中滲出搖滾血液，不僅攀上法國榜TOP 5榜位，更搶攻英美兩地流行榜Top40之列。風格獨特的奇幻電影【超能輪胎殺人事件Rubber】，也邀請到團員之一的Gaspard首度跨界協助原聲帶配樂大任，展現獨有的法式音樂創意。

Back in 2007 Justice’s crunching deconstruction of techno, pop, R&B, electro, funk, metal and pretty much anything else that took their fancy established the pair as one of France’s most vital musical exports. Their second album, 2011’s Audio, Video, Disco, pushed the sonic boat out even further. A bombastic aural wallop whose classic ’70s rock flourishes owed as much to Queen and Yes as it did Frankie Knuckles or Prince, it saw them embark on rapturously-received world tour that took in headline slots at Coachella and Lollapalooza.

The first taster fans had after a five-year studio silence, « Safe And Sound » is the perfect fanfare for what lies ahead. Built upon a bedrock of slap bass workouts and glistening synthesisers, the sense of drama is ratcheted up by swirling Love Unlimited-styled disco strings.

Woman’s journey catapults you from the elastic R&B pop of « Pleasure » straight into the rush of « Alakazam! ». Twirls through a dazzling bout of thumping electronic piano and clavinet sparring during « Fire »’s dancefloor peacocking, barely pausing for breath before it lands at « Stop » – a sparkling, bittersweet slice of disco pop that boasts one of the best chorus the pair have ever had on a track.

Featuring Audio, Video, Disco collaborator Morgan Phalen on vocals, « Randy » has a melody Michael McDonald would have killed a fellow Doobie Brother for (if MichaelMcDonald was into gut-shuddering electro that is). « Love S.O.S », meanwhile, sounds like the greatest disco anthem you’ve never heard, striking the perfect balance of euphoria and heartache while a synth wails like a police siren throughout.

It’s mirrored in a more live approach to recording. At least that’s what it initially sounds like. What you think is a live drum track turns out to be a heavily treated 808 and what sounds unmistakably like a theremin transpires to be a woman playing a musical saw. The songs themselves too are almost impossible to pin down. Coming halfway through the album, Chorus jolts the listener out of any concept of what the record is going to promise next. What is it? Glitch techno? Sci-fi prog? Celestial disco?

Only a fool would try to second guess Justice. And that includes Justice themselves.
