Nov 21, 2016After a slight misstep with Audio, Visual Disco, they’ve only gone and created a masterpiece with Woman.
-
Nov 18, 2016Woman is confident and captivating, and like their debut before it, demands attention.
-
Dec 2, 2016Woman is a really good record and an accomplished, confident body of work, but it may leave those hankering for something with more venom feeling a little impatient.
-
Nov 18, 2016Justice’s sound is still huge, still bludgeoningly and pleasingly direct.
-
Nov 17, 2016Woman is a joyous album of hope and optimism.
-
Nov 17, 2016Ultimately, Woman‘s choral and orchestral contributions make the album stand out not only from Justice’s own prior work, but also from the throng of more repetitive electronic music that’s prevalent today.
-
Nov 15, 2016While nothing on Woman is quite as bombastic as when † was first unleashed on an unsuspecting public, there's plenty of intriguing stuff to chew on here with deep cuts such as Chorus and Heavy Metal, resulting in a terrific return from the French duo.
-
Nov 18, 2016For the majority of Woman, Justice are acting out their pop dreams through machinery. Where in the past they’ve allowed to let the equipment do the talking, here, they show that they too are human after all.
-
Dec 12, 2016Generally speaking, the beats remain hard enough, and the riffs have a sharp enough edge to maintain Woman’s effect throughout, and the elastic textures created by Augé and de Rosnay display a real lushness, warm and cold in equal measures.
-
Nov 29, 2016What works on Woman truly does with aplomb, but it arguably stands as the group’s least unique effort, and with some of that old punk snarl now removed perhaps they’ve lost some of that addictive danger.
-
Nov 18, 2016Even if Woman sometimes sounds more like two EPs than a cohesive set of songs, it's still an enjoyable album--especially when Justice use their flair for looking back creatively.
-
UncutNov 15, 2016Gaspard Auge and Xavier de Rosnay balance their belligerent side with a refined, progressive sensibility, a side increasingly foregrounded on Woman. [Dec 2016, p.30]
-
Nov 17, 2016While Justice avoided breaking new ground with Woman, the 10 tracks still manage to remind us why we fell in love with them in the first place.
