Human After All is the third studio album by the French electronic music duo Daft Punk, released on 14 March 2005 through Virgin Records. Whereas their previous studio album, Discovery, was inspired by disco and garage house and produced over two years, Human After All was more minimalistic and improvisational with heavier guitars and electronics, and was produced in six weeks. Human After All received mixed reviews from critics, who were wary of its minimalistic, repetitive nature and considered the record inferior to Daft Punk's previous works. However, it did receive some favorable notices for the darker, experimental tone—unique from the duo's other records—and the moodier, more menacing direction. Some singles, in particular "Robot Rock" and "Technologic", charted in several countries, while "Human After All" charted in France. Human After All reached number one on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart, and was nominated for the 2006 Grammy Award for Best Electronic/Dance Album. Daft Punk incorporated the songs into their Alive 2006/2007 tour, which received acclaim. From Wikipedia (
