| Daft Punk is not for kids, especially after hearing "Human After All". LOL, DO try this at home. |

| This album is lame. I can't believe it comes from the same group who put out the best album of all time, 'Alive 2007.' Seriously, this album is lame. It's simplistic and monotonous. There is nothing that moves you. Daft Punk was really phoning it in this time. |

 Good but not great

| Honestly I love Daft Punk but they could have done better on this album. Some of the songs are really good but the CD lacks the cohesive nature I felt from "Discovery", which was disappointing. Still I recomend getting it.It's not the best Daft Punk album, but it's still good. |

 Definitely Daft Punk's Worst
Submitted on: 2009-08-07 |

| This is definitely their worst album, it's not bad per se but compared to Daft Punk's other work its the worst. It is a lot more repetitive than anything else they've done but there's just something about that repetition, it's so robotic and... well it's unexplainable. It's a good album even though you know they can do better. |

 Annoying and Tired

Those who use repetition as an explanation for their dislike of this album, really don't come across the fact that Daft Punk's songs have always been repetitive, to a degree. However, though, with all the repetition, came songwriting. The songs like really had only one hook did so with groove, tuneful, and addictiveness. Nothing is more infectious than songs like Around the World. True, the albums songs change less than they do in Homework and especially Discovery, but little bits of melody, throbbing bass lines, it's all needed to actually hold up a song that has no real room to change. This is dance music, people, but you can't just dance to a beat. Without the proper background and bits of melody.
So that's why this album really fails. The repetition surely sucks yeah, but it wouldn't be that bothersome if the music didn't suck so bad. Perhaps I don't particulary care too much for synth guitars so much that I want them blasted in my face every three seconds, but the music is terrible, considerably because that's all you get! The only time you'll ever hear something else is the piano backed "Make Love" and On/Off (with a lame collage) and the unemotional "Emotion". Every single freakin' song buzzes with maddeningly annoying guitars, in between one line repeated over and over again. That's all this album offers. Seriously. That's what you get when you listen to this album. Nothing else. Absolutely nothing. Ok fine, you might get some background music when the voice chimes "The Prime Time of YOur LIfe!"
Not only that, but the concept really is tired. I mean, the theme of technology overriding the human emotion has been done quite a bit for a while. Besides, why exactly would you want to listen an album that has all the traits of what Daft Punk fear? What, does subjecting yourself to such a fate with this album warrant a message well? I think a dynamic movie or something of that effects is the way to spread the message, not a representation of itself. Fine, sometimes the latter ain't exactly bad, but with an album as annoying as this, why even bother? Besides, Kraftwerk's albums have been saying something similar to this since the 80's, and those albums still hold up. Human After All wishes it could do that, but doesn't.
The only good song on here, Technologic, is worth downloading, but the rest of the album is a crapfest of buzzing noises, annoying vocals, and absolutely no hooks or something to keep you excited while soaking in the beats. Forget just repetition, it's everything this album has that brings it down to the sea to drown. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. Heck, even some Angerfist is better than this. |
