Band Information, Part I:
Daft Punk assumed their reign over the French electronic scene shortly after the appearance of their second single "Da Funk" in 1995, making mere subjects of such high-profile names as Motorbass, Air and Dimitri from Paris. Transforming a heritage of early Acid House, Detroit Techno, Indie Rock and hip-hop into a flawless progressive electronica sound that made loyal followers of both staunch rock crowds and Techno fiends alike, the collaboration of Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo and Thomas Bangalter triggered a deluge of critical praise. Heavy funk-fortified House beats lumber confidently at a mid-tempo hip-hop pace, weighed down with metallic murmurs, shrill electronic squeals, and catchy vocodered vocal hooks. With a style that shifts without warning from the hard end of dance music to the easier side of the spectrum and takes care to steer clear of cliches and overwrought themes, Daft Punk is the model for crossover electronic music.

Daft Punk is shit.

I like how there's a special note that they will not interview or have anything related to band talk without having their specialized helmets on.

In a way, it reminds me of Cylons from Battlestar Galactica
Nonetheless I like the whole helmet thing.

Like them
Especially the song 'technologic'

As shameful as it it is, yes i do like them.

I like them... I find it a little scary that my dad actually likes "One More Time" but to each his own, Around the World is one of my fav songs by them
