Gasper and Xavier (seriously cool names) who make up the duo known as JUSTICE, are French, obviously, since they make house music. They are Christian, whatever, i don't judge. Their debut album, CROSS, scored pretty big marks with a couple of my friends, and i'll admit that i have listened to my fair share of it over the past year.
The album starts off with GENESIS, omg just liek the first book of the bible, so creative. Anyways, it's a decent opening, which really sets the mood for the next 3 songs, (DANCE MUTHAFUCKA! ITS DISCO TIME!), and cheesily transitions into LET THERE BE LIGHT (really? another religious title?), which is MEH to say the least, it has a nice bassline (the bassline with drive the album) and some annoying highhat at the beginning which lasts too long. D.A.N.C.E. is dead for me, catchy, but whatever, WALE does a nice rap over it (seriously, check it out), but alone it is dry and overplayed. PHANTOM, parts 1 and 2, are my favorite part of the cd. Thinking about it while i listen, i don't really know WHY i like it, but i do. The beat stays relatively the same throughout, but that bassline, that fucking bassline, keeps the song moving, especially in part 2. Honestly, it really just builds off the starting material, like the rest of the songs on the album, with a huge breakdown in the middle. VALENTINE, the next song, feels like it should be playing in the background of a Mario game, whatever, DVNO works perfectly with the new haircut i just got (lololololol), listen to STRESS (aptly named, but its nothing if you have heard any "Max and the Technicolor Dreamcoat"), have a panic attack, it's even better with the music video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU7bFpPJiww, then turn the album off, because the rest is boring. The end of WATERS OF NAZARETH isn't bad, but ONE MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT is.
I have ADHD, don't judge me. This post sucks.

HAY HAY. The interbutts aren't very conducive to tone, liek sarcasm. It was 10x more thought out than my sh!t.
Plus Stonewall's a wanker.

ONE OF US IS SUDDENLY 21
This album is surprisingly great. I'll totally jump on the bandwagon for this one. Also, not christian. Christian by birth (obviously, they are french) but upholding to a christian religion... their DVD shows acts that say otherwise (hooray irony!) Saw them live at monolith a couple years back and felt like i was gonna have a heart attack by the end of their (shortened by tech difficulties) set.
This is Jenny Gumbert btw. of course. who esle would be commenting about something so hipster-tastic
