Report: Justice @ AB, Brussel - Elektro is the new Rock N' Roll

Yesterday evening, it became crystalclear to me: elektro is the new rock n' roll. Or at least a perfect cross-over. The cross of Justice between a massive wall of Marshall - amplifiers, tracks of Rage ('Killing In The Name'), Rammstein ('Du Hast') and Metallica ('Master Of Puppets') in the mix, a crowd that loves to rock on the unique sound of Ed Banger's biggest. It was the fourth time I was at a Justice-show, and it must have been the best. They turned the (hot!) Ancienne Belgique upside down with their classics, came up with some suprising mash-ups ('We are your friends' vs Rammstein, see the video below) and both Gaspard and Xavier definately had fun watching the crowd go wild. Only negative point: the show was too short: 75 minutes? This can be better!
Nevertheless, I really enjoyed yesterday's show! For the festivalpeople: check them out at Pinkpop or Rock Werchter!

Damn, too bad I missed the show :-(. The after show in Recyclart wasn't as much a wall of sound as Justice appeared to be, but it was fun. Find the pics of the after show at my facebook account.
