    Sometimes I’d argue Justice is better than Daft Punk. Where Daft Punk looked to the past for their music, Justice kept their faces forward to the future, and were never afraid to push the boundaries of their sound, all while staying Justice. I love Daft Punk as well, since they pioneered one of my favorite genres and crafted timeless classics time after time, but Justice does something otherworldly that I hear with every single one of their songs that I just don’t get with Daft Punk. TL;DR, I love Justice.

    Nothing they've released has come close to Cross since AVD - they really pulled away from the big and aggressive rockier sounds.

    @queennesquik4023 День назад +9

    I completely agree with your point about Justice expanding my musical horizons. Before Justice, all I had ever really listened to was the rock that made it to the radio. Justice hooked me with their rock sound and they were the first band I ever really dug into, I listened to all their albums, Planisphere, the whole lot. From them, I ended up getting into Daft Punk and all sorts of other electronic music. I have them to thank for listening to as much music as I do!
    I love all their eras, but Woman Worldwide is my favorite, and one of my fav albums of all time. Hoping we get a good re-release of IRIS: A SPACE OPERA someday! There's probably a whole video someone could make about that movie, too. I felt like it was Justice finally making the disco opera they'd been wanting to all along. Great vid, love Justice, love Middle 8!

    Justice kind of skipped off the surface of my attention at first when Cross came out, probably just because I had just finished college and was drowning in the job hunt, until one day a friend showed me the video for Stress. When the drop hit in the middle, I locked in and literally screamed "IS THAT A FUCKING DEVO SAMPLE?!" I've been hooked on them ever since.

  • @SmallBlogV8

    The ironic thing about the idea that Justice are/were in Daft Punk's shadow is that - either when Random Access Memories departed almost entirely from EDM, or when Daft Punk broke up in '21 - I bet scores of people who miss the Robots ended up finding Justice as the alternative/continuation.
