Katy Perry Will Re-Release ‘Teenage Dream’: Morning Mix

Mon Jan 23 2012 by Becky Bain
Did You Hear?

:: Talk about a recurring Dream! Katy Perry will stop at nothing, absolutely nothing, to get that sixth #1 single off Teenage Dream, even if she has to keep re-releasing the same album over and over until she's rolling around naked in cotton candy from a nursing home. [The Prophet Blog]

:: Justice has endeavored to recreate the feeling of doing every drug available in the 70's all at once in their new "On 'N' On" video — and succeeded admirably! [PunchBowl Blog]

:: Hilary Duff is making a pit stop in the studio before heading to the maternity ward. After a five-year hiatus from music, being seven months pregnant isn't going to stop her from putting out a new album! [Pink Is The New Blog]

::  Jay-Z has 99 problems, and a broken refrigerator is one — leading to his 40/40 nightclub being shut down by the health department. [TMZ]

:: Catch an American Sign Language + dance interpretation of Robyn's "Call Your Girlfriend." (Although, if your girlfriend actually is deaf, it may be a better idea to text her instead.) [YouTube]

Katy Perry And B.o.B Kick Off Their Adidas Campaign With A New Justice Track

Wed Mar 16 2011 by Becky Bain
B.o.B and Katy Perry, trading in her cupcake dresses for sports bras and sweats, make blink-and-you-miss it cameos in the latest Adidas ad, featuring the new song "Civilization" from Justice. (Apparently the sports apparel company has an appreciation for French electronic duos.) The two-minute commercial was directed by Romain Gavras, who traumatized redheads everywhere with his clip for M.I.A.'s "Born Free". Thankfully, this clip is much, much less disturbing to watch (unless you get easily freaked out by sweaty athletes). Vid below. More »

MJ: “Man, Justice remixing Lenny Kravitz is like … two decades of vapidity coming together and forming one gigantic black hole.” CM: “No way is Justice as bankrupt as Kravitz–vapid, yes, but a different kind of vapid.” MJ: “Well, Lenny has had a 15-year head start! Give Justice more time and more blow and I’m sure they’ll be there.” CM: “Blow–is there nothing it can’t do?” [LennyKravitz.com; HT Stereogum] More »

Red Hot Chili Peppers Not Giving World Enough Time To Recover From “Stadium Arcadium”

Tue Jul 1 2008 by Dan Gibson

From the “WTF?” file, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who had previously said they were on a somewhat permanent hiatus, are thinking of having French electro duo Justice produce their next album. More »


New Found Glory Ape Justice, Feature “Beatdowns” In New Clip

Mon May 19 2008 by anthonyjmiccio

Where a French techno act would show teenagers assaulting and threatening passerby in their video, pop-punk bottom feeders New Found Glory have filmed themselves waving guns and abusing children while singing some godawful track that sounds like every else they’ve ever done over their interminable… More »


Justice Wants To D.A.N.C.E. All Over Your F.A.C.E.

Fri May 2 2008 by Maura

Frenchie dance duo Justice may be the perfect act for the current time that we live in, i.e. an era that’s full of smug self-referentiality, parties with decent music that are solely populated by people asking where the next party might be, and cults of personality that have voids at their center. The video for “D.A.N.C.E.” seems to represent their modus operandi best, really–aesthetically impressive, but stuffed full of statements that dig no deeper than what can be expressed by a T-shirt, and lots of references to some other cultural touchstone that lurks within the recesses of the 18-34 demo’s collective memory. As such, it was probably inevitable that they’d move on to the “shocking video stuffed with gratuitous violence” phase of their career, but I figured they’d at least wait until their post-Cross album to do so. “Stress” clip after the jump.

Monolith Festival Seemingly Comfortable With Indie-Intensive Lineup

Wed Apr 30 2008 by anthonyjmiccio

A festival with Justice and Devotchka as the headliners? Where’s the Jay-Z or Joe Jackson? Where’s the Weiland? The ironically named Monolith Festival, which will hit Red Rocks Ampitheater on Sept. 13 and 14, is keeping the scale kind of small, but kind of awesome as well. TV On The Radio, CSS, Del The Funkee Homosapien, and bands with even less name recognition may not pull in the suburbanites, but it should make for an enjoyable show. Lineup after the jump.

Justice Wish You A Very Unsettling Birthday

Fri Feb 15 2008 by Jess Harvell

When my sister was a wee be-permed grade schooler, my parents took her to a kiddie-friendly afternoon at a local nightclub for her birthday one year. The highlight was a Johnny 5-esque robot descending from the ceiling and then “dancing” to New Jack Swing songs. More »
