Daft Punk

[Uncle Spielberg]

Won 4 grammy's yesterday including best album of 2013 for Random Access Memories and best pop song of the year for Get Lucky. Now the dust has settled on these masterpieces what is the overall view now ? I think RAM is the best album of the last 10 years.

Rubbish ? Really ?

Rubbish ? Really ?

Downloaded it (legally of course) and 90 minutes later it was deleted.

Dissappointed....love the old albums though!

 

[Geestar]

Was not even the best album of last year let alone last 10!

Mogwai and the National just off of the top of my head beats it out of the park.

Mogwai brilliant!

Fair enough.

 

[MattBackHome]

Yeah I haven't listened to it since it came out and dont miss it. So overrated.

Imo, like.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

It's a very good album - their best in my opinion.

In my top 20 albums of 2013 - maybe nudging in to the top 10. I don't listen to it much now, though.

 

[Icy Gull]

I'm impressed that Nile Rodgers gets away with pretty well the same guitar riff as Le Chic on so many records.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I just want to know if Daft Punk got anything to eat or drink at the Grammys or did they have to sit with their helmets on all night?

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Fair enough.

It's a bit bland in places Uncle. You stick with the genius of Homework - a delicious piece of work, and while you're at it don't forget to buy Backstreet Boys - The Hits from scAmazon - if you don't love it I'll PayPal you the £1.26 it will have cost you.

I think RAM is the best album of the last 10 years.

I used to like it too, but I could have swore it was by Paul and Linda McCartney, and it was over 40 years ago!

[El Presidente]

Mogwai brilliant!

Saw Mogwai last night, cosmic sounds!

 

[Gullys Cats]

I like a bit of daft punk!

 

[Geestar]

Saw Mogwai last night, cosmic sounds!

Where?

 

[rcf0712]

It's a classic

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

It's a classic

I agree with this. And I think it is unfair to compare it with their past output as it is so different and next level. I still isten to the album from time to time and I think I will never tire of hearing Georgio by Moroder.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I'm currently listening to Homework; what a bloody brilliant album it is.

I've had a big think about this thread

To my mind RAM is the 3rd best Daft Punk album and a fairly distant third at that BUT I think the state of contemporary pop music is pretty much at an all time low so a good Daft Punk album like RAM looks like an all time great against the current competition when in reality, it's a solid 8/10 record.

Same goes for "The Next Day ." n'all.

Is that fair?

Nope...their previous albums would rate an 8, which are a mile ahead of RAM.
