[edit] Formation

The origins of Daft Punk are shrouded in mystery, but you can tell they're probably the typical pair of hip suburban white boys from France. The two eventually decided to put their foremost skill to good use, namely, their extensive knowledge of obscure Motown-funk songs that aren't quite good enough that you'd ever listen to them, but have maybe a few seconds, or half a second, of good stuff that could be re-worked a bit to become the best song ever.

Their first attempt at a band was the Led Zeppelin cover band Oh Darlin, Darlin' Darlin' Darlin' Walk a While With Me, which was reviewed by one critic as "symbolizing every conceivable reason to arrange a fix-up between your tape player and a 12-gauge." While Thomas Bangalter quit the band to compose the album Irrevocable with the sound chip from his old NES system, The Count of Monte Christo was cast in a number of low-budget swashbuckler movies to earn money. One of the scripts required a villain address The Count as a "daft punk". The Count immediately called his friend to tell him he'd finally discovered the band name that would allow fans to tell each other very long stories of how the band's name was created.

[edit] Start of their Career

Armed with only three turntables, four analog synthesizers, and frequent refills of coffee supplied by Thomas' parents, the two composed the album Homework while in a shared bedroom, testing each other on their knowledge of obscure funk bands. The band recorded police sirens from responses to domestic abuse calls from the apartment downstairs, and the waves on the track Fresh by flooding the bathroom on eight occasions and overdubbing them. The screams on Rolling & Scratching were created by Thomas taking a vibrating neck massager and jabbing it between The Count's legs.

The final product got the two an A- on their group project, and catapulted them into cult superstars of the French Techno Underground. Subsequent albums, including Disco? Actually, Kind Of, Hadn't Thought About That and Human After All, Then Again, Not So Much, Really earned the group further fame and fortune.

Daft Punk's lyrics have earned them universal acclaim. Director Pedro Almodovar has said, "Around the ninety-fifth time they said "Robot Rock", it clicked with me that this was a song about robots that rocked. Such a simplicity of message is something all artists should strive for." Some have suggested that their style of ballad lyricism inspired the first and foremost of Uncyclopedia's basic techniques of humor writing.

[edit] Scandals & Shenanigans

Following the release of Digital Love, everyone accused them of ruining the lives of everyone, as it contained the lyrics Why don't you play The Game? That is everyone except the band's freelance applause enforcer Chuck Norris, who has won the game.

Thomas Bangalter was criticized for his involvement in the movie Irrevocable (better if you roll the r), for which he used earlier music. The movie, edited by someone who had just seen Memento, consists mostly of people being bludgeoned and assaulted with heavy objects while Bangalter plays different remixes of Crescendolls.

Spike Jonze, a frequent collaborator, has expressed misgivings over the music video for Technologic, claiming to know a bit more about the true nature of the little infant-robot thing than he would like to. His only remark on the matter was "Planned Parenthood and hardware stores... all that trash has to go somewhere..."

[edit] Recent Work: Alive 2007 and beyond...

The duo returned to prominence with their 2007 live album Alive 2007, which immediately drew interest for its ground-breakingly original and thought-provoking title. The album was a recording of a concert in the Parisian catacombs, the city's undead turnout was reportedly 40,000, breaking records previously set by Queen + Paul Rodgers. Like the rest of the tour, Daft Punk's concert started with them finding two random homeless people and putting them into the group's trademark costumes and inside the giant pyramid. There, they pressed the play button on a CD player, setting off 97 backing tracks and a light show as the two homeless people pretended to be working the computers and samplers. In the meantime, the real Daft Punk would go off to a club and party as they made six-figure checks from concert tickets. The group repeated this tactic successfully for most of the tour, with exactly zero Daft Punk fans becoming suspicious.

The tour allowed the group an opportunity to pay tribute to another beacon of childhood wonder, the movie Tron, with Daft Punk composing the score for an upcoming sequel. Thomas Bangalter was reported to have suffered a light-cycle accident during filming. He was saved only by the song Aerodynamic playing on set, because he would not allow himself to die until the guitar solo was finished, allowing paramedics to get there in time. The Count of Monte-Cristo has stated that the synth riffs for the soundtrack will be worsened for the movie because they were too cool, and star Jeff Bridges kept breaking into an awkward robot dance whenever he heard one.
