Digitalism sound more like DP than Justice, and it’s not like a lot of people don’t just see Justice as DP lite anyway. Idealism is ripping off pretty much all the best parts of Homework, which is such a recognizable album to even the most beginner of EDM fans, that it’s not at all surprising that a lot of people sort of overlooked Justice’s ripping off of DP. I mean, taking old disco samples and porn basslines and hitting the distort button isn’t really a Daft Punk trademark (at least not more so than it is the trademark of so many other EDM groups), but Idealism basically sounds like Homework 2.0.

Virtually all the mods on here do not like EDM, which is not a criticism just a fact so my dissing of the album is not blindly based on not having a smidgen of knowledge in the dance music area.
What is annoying is that you cannot seem to believe that someone does not like this album and in fact I hate it. YOU may not see a DP connection, but I personally do. I do not exclusively listen to dance music but that certainly does'nt mean that my opinion is'nt as valid as yours. I listened to the album on a musical level and I found it severly lacking. Hey-it's just an opinion.
My favourite band is Pink Floyd and there are many posts on here that proclaim their dislike of the band. I don't pull them up on it. It's their opinion. If they get a certain fact wrong then I will mention it but otherwise I dont reply.
There is no doubt that you know a hell of a lot more about me concerning dance music but I know a sh
it load about music in general and my opinion is as good as anyone elses.
