I always saw Justice as taking two bastardized and opposing musical genres, Disco and Metal and fusing them together into this epic and energetic sound. Sprinkle on some good songwriting and catchy melodies and you have Justice, in a nutshell. It totally made sense for Justice to ask The Fucking Champs for a remix of their power rock single “Civilization”. I have always thought The Fucking Champs were the badass version of Ratatat and now here they are fulfilling their cock rock destiny by remixing Justice. Just remember that harmonized guitars will always be cool.
Bonus:
The Fucking Champs teamed up with Trans AM to form The Fucking AM, one of the most epic bands to come about in the past decade. “Doing Research for an Autobiography” is the key track off their album “Gold” that epitomizes all things epic and feel good. Just imagine yourself driving in SoCal in the 80s in your Jeep with your surfboard and the wind in your hair, feelsgoodman.jpg
Planisphère, Justice’s magnus opus that they created for the Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2009 fashion show. They polished this track up, added their signature reverbs, effects, chopped up edits etc. They even added a proggy wanking guitar solo. You can tell their love for The Fucking Champs is really making an impact on their music. There seems to be a return to their epic church disco sound circa Waters of Nazareth. Maybe Justice is on the way of becoming a full fledged electronic prog band? I wonder what is in store next.

My favorite Ratatat track, the harmonized gutiar and organ is so metal. It is also Thomas Bangalter’s favorite track by them which is why he spun it at the Louis Vuitton fashion show.
Dr. Dre is finishing up his “final” album, Detox and is planning to release it June 2008. He apparently spent 72 hours straight making beats. He is now working on the new Eminem and plans to lift weights, make beats, and spend time with his family. OG.
