This completely sucks. I had a bucket list item to see them live. Definitely my most listened-to artist ever. Best of luck to their next endeavors though, I hope they both continue to make music.

#32I genuinely feel like listening to Discovery on my discman on the bus in high school helped define who I am as a person. On the one hand I find this news horribly disheartening, on the other hand I am thrilled to see them go out on top. They have never had a bad album, and I’m my opinion they only got better as they went. Godspeed you beautiful robots.
Oh man. Discman on the bus. Those words punch me right in the memory. Likewise, I had a period of time listening to daft punk’s discovery that was fairly transformative. It completely, with no exaggeration, overhauled my understanding and appreciation of music.
Discovery, Radiohead’s Kid A, and Bjork’s Vespertine defined my late teens - an age that basically defined my musical tastes.
It’s interesting how music does such an amazing job of worming itself into your brain.

Both artists are under 50. I would not be at all surprised if you get the chance to see them perform together again.
The counter point being that I saw Velvet Underground live and they sucked badly :D

With any luck there will be a reunion within a decade or two.

#39I found their last few albums to be rather weak, lacking innovation. Who knows, maybe in a few years after a break they can get back together with a fresh mind and produce something great.

#40I always thought Daft Punk figured out the perfect solution to the how to be famous problem. Everyone recognizes their artist name and their artist costume, but virtually no one knows their real name or would accost them on the street.
