Apr 9, 2012I love Daft Punk and I consider Discovery and Alive 2007 to be among my favorite musical works. However, it is painfully obvious that they didn't care about how this album turned out. Dull, repetitive, and boring would be the best words to describe this 'album.'
I only give a 6/10 because DP redeemed themselves and this album by remixing it with Alive 2007. -

May 26, 2016Most of the songs are repetitive as hell.That doesn't mean that they are bad, but you get bored of them pretty fast, and I think this could have been so much better if Thomas and Guy-Manuel didn't put only 6 weeks of their time in this. Yet they saved this album because of the Alive 2007 tour.

Jul 11, 2019Interesting at times, and surely fun in Robot Rock, TV Rules the Nation and Technologic. I just don't think this is the proper way to follow up an all-timer in Discovery and a low point for Daft Punk, even if a decent album overall.

ZachHMar 14, 2005It's true that it is a lot like Homework was. A very disappointing record that lacks a great deal of distinguishing content.

Oct 3, 2013Despite the clear goal of the album, it fails to hit the same chord Homework and Discovery were able to do. Overly repetitive, overly-sampling on Robot Rock (Breakwater-Release The Beast), and a rather boring album. The album may be a hit at dance clubs, but listening to this by yourself will bore you.

Nov 19, 2014Eh.... Probably the weakest album. It's not bad but most of it is really weak. It has it's own nice sound (Techno/Rock) that moves away from former dancey Daft Punk. Most of the album is pretty hit or miss though.

Jun 5, 2016This album is kinda meh. Because the music is kinda a bit weird. But songs like "Human After All" and "Digital Love" are only the best ones in my opinion. That's all I really got to say about it.

marcusrMar 20, 2005Blah. Without the creativity, groove or attention to detail of any of the previous records, this album manages to feel depressing and restless at the same time.

kennyMFeb 11, 2006the number of good songs on this album - robot rock, steam machine, television rules the nation and technologig. the rest are monotonus and repetative to the point of nausia, the brainwasher in particular. male love makes me want to throw up. extremely disappointed.

JerradHMar 15, 2005I'm really disappointed from this album. After the great creative inspiration and infusion of nice melodies in Discovery, they've gone back to the "lets make 11 different 10 second snippets of music on an Atari 2600 and repeat them until everyone barfs" style. Homework wasn't even this drab.

akbarshaboobooMar 23, 2005This is a far cry from the jaw-dropping beats of 1997's 'Homework'.. the beats are mostly good, but once they are established, there is very little variation, and most songs will quickly bore the crap out of you because of this repetitiveness.

jonzMar 26, 2005When I first heard the leak of this album I thought it was a joke. Daft Punk are known to play games with their audience, and the album was just really sort of crappy, especially by Daft Punk standards. The day the album was released in stores I went out and got it, and sure enough, there was no joke, and they actually released this peice of crap album.

Entertainment WeeklyDominated by overly repetitive, lumbering throwaways. [18 Mar 2005, p.68]

Apparently knocked off in just six weeks, Daft Punk's third album sounds like it took six days. Six short days. With long lunches.
