Having conquered the world only to go into the deepest hibernation imaginable, Justice are finally back with us - following the release of their second album and the King Crimson-esque, time-signature switching, poodle rock of "Civilisation" with latest single "Audio Video Disco". It sees the French duo go from one extreme to the other - playing things with a soft touch by evoking Stereolab's chorus harmonies to a beat that reminds instantly of Joe Jackson's "Stepping Out" or even "Far From Over" by Frank Stallone (a track that regularly finds its way into their DJ sets). "Helix" however is instantly recognisable as a Justice beat, and a pretty damn good one at that as a sackful of guitar overdubs are piled on top of a punchy midtempo beat with a breakdown to die for.
