Justice

Solid album, a good summation of Justice's career. Sure soundwise this might not punch as hard as their first releases but I feel like the whole culture has moved on from that era and nothing sounds as abrasive anymore, which I ultimately subjectively prefer (but that's like my opinion man)

I generally think it's very hard to have a long career on the bleeding edge of cool when the thing that's 'in' changes every other year, Justice have survived with a bit of cunning conceding something to pop music, but they definitely have a knack for writing catchy and weird tunes, and their choice of collaborators with indie cred like Tame Impala, Thundercat and Connan Mockasin ensures they still get to sit at the cool kids table
