Justice not quite such a current music act

Concerning your review of Justice live at the Marquee, unlike previous electronic acts to play the venue, such as Prodigy and Faithless — “whose best days were behind them” in the words of the reviewer — Justice are “as current as you can get”.

So let me just update you there. Justice’s debut album Cross, released in 2007, was the high water mark of the French electro house sound. That debut album and tracks from it have received or been nominated for numerous awards and in the half decade since have been heard in TV adverts as theme music for film, television programmes, and video games.

It has taken them four years to release another album of new material which, in comparison to the debut, was largely ignored and wasn’t riding the crest of any particular new sound. Clearly their best years are behind them.
