Feb 24, 2017I did not mean to write a review, and the Metacritic site won't let you delete a user post once it has been posted.
I'm actually a quite a bit shocked. -
Feb 1, 2017Love SOS is not very good, and Pleasure is quite forgettable as well, but aside from that, this is too much fun to criticise. Sure, the lyrics are a tad bland, and all of this isn't particularly new or inventive, but I'd be lying if I said that that actually bothers me.

Jan 6, 2017Awesome fresh tunes, that only Justice could pull out. The album's main weakness is that it's stuck between the genres, and even though I appreciate duo's usual aspiration to innovate, the album isn't good enough to not to suffer from it, sometimes taking the worst of all worlds. Still, overall the album is really likable, especially for a Justice fan.

Nov 22, 2016On the border of cheesy and serious; right where Justice belongs and right where they've always been. This soars above their previous album Audio Video Disco. It's feel good dance music for a more mature audience than that of their debut Cross. Surely not as hard hitting as their early days, they've opted for a gentler but just as inspiring sound. 8/10

Nov 19, 2016The album is terrible and there isn't any moment I feel energized by any music in it. It looks like the album is not even mastered. To understand what I'm saying listen to any music in Cross (their first album) and you will realize that your ears explode (in a good way). Now listen to any music in Woman. Isn't it a turn off?
This album is nothing compared to Cross. -
Nov 18, 2016Woman is yet again another new area of music for Justice to play around in. They use heavily influenced disco melodies and harmonies. There is indeed an absence of a "dance" aspect to this album but highlights like "Safe and Sound", "Pleasure", "Stop", "Randy", and "Love S.O.S." keep the longtime fans pleased.

Dec 12, 2016Generally speaking, the beats remain hard enough, and the riffs have a sharp enough edge to maintain Woman’s effect throughout, and the elastic textures created by Augé and de Rosnay display a real lushness, warm and cold in equal measures.

Dec 2, 2016Woman is a really good record and an accomplished, confident body of work, but it may leave those hankering for something with more venom feeling a little impatient.

Dec 2, 2016Woman does provide Justice’s most human sound to date, if you will. That sound is made particularly clear by including more singing and lyrics than they’ve been known to do. Despite so many tracks feeling substantially longer than called for, Justice presents new ideas and a sound fuller here.
