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 fervor previously reserved for rockstars. The † tour embraced the bombast of rock concert aesthetics, with the band flanked by a giant wall of Marshall speaker cabinets amid 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 (awarded the Grammy Award for Best Electronic/Dance Electronic Album in 2017) and subsequent live film IRIS: A Space Opera.
