End of an era!


Daft Punk, widely known for their most influential dance tracks
Get Lucky, Lose Yourself to Dance, etc. have decided to split up after 28 years
of their career together.


The duo announced the news in an eight-minute cryptic video
called “Epilogue” imitated from their sci-fi 2006 movie Electroma.


In the video, musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas
Bangalter, dressed in their signature robot costumes, said their final goodbyes
in a dessert before one of them blew up into pieces.


The video ends with a sober note as we see a sunset, and Daft
Punk’s song Touch playing in the
background with graphics that read, “1993- 2021.”


Check out the video

The group’s long-serving publicist officially confirmed their
split to media organizations.


Formed in 1993 in Paris, the group rose to popularity with
their monumental albums like 1997’s Homework and 2001’s Discovery and tracks
like Around the world and One more Time. The duo gained world-wide
recognition with their song Get Lucky,
which also won them a Grammy Award.


In 2016, Daft Punk returned to collaborate with The Weeknd on
two other major hits: I Feel it Coming
and Star Boy.


Long before they came to be known as Daft Punk, they used to
play rock music under the name of “Darlin.”


Musicians Bangalter and Homem-Christo were school buddies, who
started composing music together as teenagers.  


They changed the group’s name following the negative reception
on their first track. Later on, the duo also decided to change their entire
strategy and focused only on electronic music, referring to themselves as Daft
Punk.


But why Daft Punk? You may ask.


A review published in Melody Maker called their music “a daft
punky thrash,” which inspired them to make it their identity and own it even
more.


Their second incarnation worked, as they received major
success with their 1996 album Homework.


A decade passed and the group continued to ring up success
after success, including a noteworthy performance at Coachella in 2016. 


Since the news of their split broke out, fans and fellow musicians have been sending their tributes to the fallen group, wishing them luck and prayers.


Here’s how fans and celebrities are reacting to the Daft Punk break up:

Their last album together was in 2013 titled Random Access Memories, which they dedicated to live instrumentation and American history of disco and funk. The album turned out to be a major success, winning them several Grammy Awards and making Daft

Punk the maestro of genre-fusing pop music.


Now that the duo have broken up, you might be googling “Daft Punk faces” to seewhat how they look like. Yeah, we get it!


Just like covering the face with bandages has been The Weeknd’s style during the After Hours period, donning iconic robot helmets has been Daft Punk’s vibe, since like, forever! They were pretty much known for their helmet-headed appearance! Yes, there are humans in there, if that’s what you’re wondering!


Since the group’s inception, we have seen Daft Punk in their formal robot attire in almost all of their public appearances, driving people curious about their actual faces.


They even claimed that they have met an accident to use it as a backstory of their helmets.


But not anymore!


We have gathered some pictures that reveal Daft Punk actual faces:

There’s even a video of them performing at a rave, you just have to look hard enough to find out:

It would have been great if the duo revealed their faces in the epilogue video, but unfortunately they didn’t, and it looks like they don’t even have any plans to reveal their faces in the future too.


RIP, Daft Punk! Thank you for the wonderful music!
