Justice have just released a deluxe edition of their era-defining debut album †, in honor of the album’s 15th anniversary

Multi GRAMMY Award-winning duo Justice have just released a deluxe edition of their era-defining debut album , in honor of the album’s 15th anniversary. The deluxe edition, which comprises the original album plus an additional 6 bonus rarities, including the previously unissued album outtake Donna, multiple demos, and a new version of their trailblazing hit single D.A.N.C.E. featuring Logic, arrives amid a flurry of reissues from the band, including lavish new vinyl pressings of their celebrated 2008 live album A Cross The Universe, 2008 Dior soundtrack Planisphere, and the digital release of the extended D.A.N.C.E. EP compiling all the various versions and remixes of the song.

Upon its release 15 years ago, Justice’s debut album changed the course of electronic music, kick starting an era where DJs and producers were embraced with a fervour previously reserved for rockstars and the like. The tour embraced the bombast of rock concert aesthetics, with the band flanked by a giant wall of Marshall speaker cabinets amid bombastic, visceral light shows - culminating in the release of the concert film and accompanying live album A Cross the Universe. In the intervening years the band has continued releasing a stream of acclaimed albums, most recently including the career spanning live-in-studio album Woman Worldwide (which was awarded the Grammy Award for Best Electronic/Dance Electronic Album in 2017) and subsequent live film IRIS: A Space Opera.
