A Cross The Universe (Live In San Francisco)
About This Album
Designed to perpetuate their image as arena metal rock stars of the electro age, Justice's second release, A Cross the Universe exposes the French duo's ability to whip a live audience to a frenzy by using a massive stack of Marshalls to amplify their laptops. The soundboard recording of their 2008 San Francisco performance, loaded with crowd noise, proves that you don't need a wealth of material, live instruments, or even microphones to put on an explosive show; just an uber-successful album with killer beats, a beast of a sound system, and a venue packed with people who like to D.A.N.C.E. Capitalizing on the critical and commercial acclaim of their debut Cross, Gaspard and Xavier's set is almost completely made up of material from their one and only 2007 outing. In fact, the only tracks left off the bill are "Newjack" and "Valentine." While this may sound like it's merely "Cross" with additional background screams, it's far from anything that conventional. Here, the pre-recorded sequences of fan favorites "DVNO," "Tthhee Ppaarrttyy," and "D.A.N.C.E." are born again; flipped and redecorated with aggressive house beats to the point that they feel fresh, but they still retain enough familiarity to get fists pumping and mouths singing along.
