Justice's debut builds monuments from distortion, compression ratios pushed past sanity until disco and rock collapse into the same glorious wreckage. Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay sampled everything, from Hall & Oates to their own feedback, crafting tracks that sounded like stadium rock filtered through blown speakers at a Parisian rave.
