Justice † (Vice) You might have familiarized yourself with French dance duo Justice courtesy the remix of Simian's "Never Be Alone", and such an introduction wouldn't be a false start, though the album is a bit different. Justice, who have received (mostly justified) comparisons to Basement Jaxx and Daft Punk, seem to shine when given someone else's work to toy with, but seem less dynamic when working from their own toolbox.

Interestingly, the Statesman got a quote from one John Hughes, visiting from DC, so maybe if you missed Pitchfest this weekend, you can go discuss your coming-of-age screenplay with the director.
