Bangalter and de Homem-Christo have flexed their robot obsession for years, but its nature has changed. The score keeps another trend going, too. Daft Punk haven't even attempted a can't-miss song in at least five years, and the Tron: Legacy soundtrack keeps that unfortunate streak alive. Their 2006 art-house indulgence Electroma went even further as it was directed by the twosome yet featured no new music. The pyramid, the gleaming helmets, and the lite-bright leather jackets brought Daft Punk's greatest hits to a holy, undiscovered realm. Since their last proper LP, 2005's Human After All, the pair staged the greatest dance music tour of all time- one that blasted its audience with enough visual stimuli to leave them blinking stars for hours. Over the course of the last decade, Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter have increasingly relied on images to complement- and sometimes justify- their music. Daft Punk aren't the same two guys who made Homework and Discovery.
