Distorted French electro-house becomes rock-scale spectacle on Cross. Justice stack riffs, clipped synths and overloaded drums until excess itself becomes the aesthetic, not a decorative layer. 'D.A.N.C.E.' got the radio and 'Waters Of Nazareth' is the one that actually explains the album.

7 on The 10 Best French House Albums

The generation that took the same materials and turned everything up until it distorted. Disco, metal and church organ, played through a wall of Marshall stacks. D.A.N.C.E. shows its age in places and Genesis and Phantom do not.
