    How to take a sample of a small part of a song and repeat it ad nauseum to utterly destroy any value it once had.

    If I was reviewing the first four songs this album would be a ten. "One More Time", "Digital Love", & "Harder Better Faster Stronger" are amazing songs. Unfortunately the rest of the album drags on. With only a few songs catching my ear. I was excited to listen to this album but was let down.

    Daft Punk are such stellar, meticulous producers that they make any sound work, even superficially dated ones like spastic early-'80s electro/R&B ("Short Circuit") or faux-orchestral synthesizer baroque ("Veridis Quo").

    Matching Homework in quirkiness, buoyancy, and club-ready freak-beats, Discovery combines the best of what Daft Punk has to offer: mid-'80s synth-pop ("Digital Love"), sleazy euro-funk ("Harder Better Faster Stronger"), shake-your-booty electro-metal with spacey guitar effects ("Aerodynamic" -- Basement Jaxx meets Eddie Van Halen), and minimal, big-beat tunes that Underworld wishes it would have thought of first ("Superheroes").

    Not enough of this album delivers on the promise of [lead single] "One More Time."
