Red Horses in the Snow- ‘Territories’
Bold, lofty marketing to say this album “explores themes of space in the age of technological acceleration” leading to explorations of contemporary alienation. This is what the press release for ‘Territories’ by Red Horses in the Snow says, but sadly the record itself doesn’t quite articulate itself so deftly.

Justice ‘Audio Video Disco’
A lot has changed since the French twosome Justice were in their pomp and considered the coolest thing since le pain en tranches. It is no longer 2007 (or 05/06 if we’re to truly going to get on our Nathan Barley shaped high horses here). We’ve now got bigger fish to fry than birds with flu, Zinedine Zindane’s monstrous and brilliant butt is a thing assigned to the recesses of youtube memory and Obama is now more debt plan than Batman. Importantly, the kids who were spearheading lovey-dovey mosh pits at Justice concerts- all neon-ed up and feeling invincible off their first and best taste of MDMA- are now older, wearier and probably unemployed in recession Britain/World.
