Justice - † Pretentious symbol = french dance?

lotta dumb shit being said itt

do explain

use of "gang-raping" as non-gross metaphor
bewilderment that ilm dislikes justice and uffie even though some current pop acts that dont get very much ilm love have a similar sound
belief that "tik tok" is "the worst"
belief that ilx hates uffie b/c she sounds like kesha
hatred of kesha
belief that ilx hates uffie b/c she is not as good a rapper as ghostface
belief that missy elliott is lyrically challenged <--- possibly dumbest shit said itt

I don't understand why anyone would be surprised that ILM dislikes Justice either but most of that is just "opinion that doesn't line up with mine = dumb shit"

huh

isnt that weird

for the record, the main reason why I hate Uffie is because she is not as good a rapper as U-God

ahhh my favorite style of posting

i love tik tok

i thought this revive was going to be bc the new single had leaked or something

lol @ this thread title "pretentious symbol = french dance?" is that a question what is this

well tbf the thread WAS started by noted ilx poster "donkey"

I like.

(max)(otm)

Although the new track isn't their strongest.

This track goes a little too far down the 80s rock path for me to really love it.

surprised at just how badly this is dating, it's probably what "Human After All" should have been but yeah I can't wring any enjoyment out of any of this except for three parts 1) the first few minutes (up until that pulsing drumbeat of "Let There Be Light" that just devolves into nothingness), 2) "DVNO" which is still killer, and 3) the random obscure Devo sample which I'm sure almost nobody recognized

What's the one that samples Goblin wholesale?

this is one of the worst thread titles ever

& yeah, "dance" is timeless but it's just weird to listen to the whole album now

also this is one of the worst thread titles ever

it is pretty impressive that "DANCE" is only like the 3rd or 4th most obnoxious tune on the album

Anybody have an a capella of that song? 'Cause fuck those vocals. Just because it's off key doesn't make it cute.

you just compared uffie to missy elliot

also, i'm totally not surprised at how badly this is dating

...i mean it's not like wine it's not going to get better or unsuck

I guess the point is if you really like stuff that's unsubtle and really obnoxious, you have dubstep now

Yeah, that. So anyways, Justice just released a really good rock album that's better than † and getting some positive press. Loving "New Lands".

yeah - fans of the last album seem to be getting in a jiff about it, but it's kind of neat in that it kinda sounds like Yes or Camel or Styx or something stupid like that. dunno how I feel about it yet.

Fans have yet to repent their brostep sins. You have to approach this album like you never heard the last one.

Very cool. I like it. My wife and I have matching JB tattoos. I have the sheet music for the main riff of Bridge To Better Days on my rib cage and my wife has it a little smaller on her side also.

lol wrong thread.

ahaha perfect

new track here:
http://www.justice.church/

it has a nice bass groove, but they need to dig themselves out of this mid-tempo malaise if they ever want to excite people again.

Yeah, the cross record had an anxiety and danger to it that made it compelling. Haven't heard them do anything else with that feeling.

Was just listening to cross the other day in fact, holds up pretty well.

I agree. OTOH, I don't think I ever need to hear the 2nd album again.

I was listening to the 2nd Anniversay Get Physical mix again the other day, specifically "Our World (Our Music)" and thinking "this song is just perfect".

where has this been all my life

i disagree. i like the new song (its a bit RAM/HAA daft punk). dont necess need to hear them go into full distortion mode.

really love the new album.
hits a lot of my aural sweet spots.
yes, the intense overdriven synths are no longer there, but thats what the debut album was all about.
the new one has some gorgeous production layers for headphones, and flows beautifully as a complete album.
the excess of strings and love of AOR actually reminds me of the midnight juggernauts in parts.
no doubt it will flop and sink without trace (no EOY lists due to the release date), but hey ..

it's an improvement over the last one at least. They no longer seem to be convinced that they should be a rock band.

i never heard the second album, but out of a pokemon type need, i will now have to track it down.

it's not great

so i see from your previous posts.
but i have no problem with electronic bands trying 70s prog.
see juan trip, air ...

on my second listen now and it's quite....good?? I dunno I never actually liked Cross much and didn't give AVD much of a chance. this is sounding pretty sweet though.

mark's description definitely intrigues me... totally interested in hearing juan trip now as well
