    This album is definitely not amazing, HOWEVER, its not as bad as a few people might make it out to be.
    Yes the samples are EXTREMELY easy to spot and its not as buzzy and noisy as their debut, but I personally think that this album wasn't meant for Justice fans or EDM fans (Although I'm sure die hard Justice fans love it anyway and thats fine).

This album is for those who don't understand electronic music (usually people who listen to 60s, 70s, 80s Rock or Metal). This album is trying introduce that demographic to EDM.

    Basically what I'm trying to say is If you love EDM and want to get your friends into it who don't like the genre and only stick to mostly Rock or Metal, show them this album.

    It is very likely that two things will stay the same for Justice (Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay as their mums know them): the cross as their symbol and comparisons to Daft Punk, another French gods of house music. Canon of their latest album Audio, Video, Disco. (or I Hear, I See, I Learn) could be easily mistaken for Daft Punkâ

    Audio, Video, Disco feels really forced. A few tracks standout but the album ultimately feels really rushed. It's also extremely repetitive. Justice's first album really showed what this french duo were trying to say, but their sophomore album just doesn't really, well, give them any justice. C

    A bold step forward. [Nov 2011, p.98]

    This is dense and metallic and gorgeous. [#82, p.57]

    The second album from Franco-techno duo Xavier de Rosnay and Gaspard Augé is decidedly less pop-tabulous than their career highlights to date.
