Punk’s Not Dead!

Electro duo make a movie (and it's strange).

When it comes to the popularity of French dance weirdos Daft Punk, suddenly it’s 1997 all over again. Not only have the robo-helmeted electro gods been selling out shows on their current tour, but their visually stunning directorial debut, Daft Punk’s Electroma, is packing them in at midnight movie screenings in Miami, Los Angeles, and New York (It’s being held over for two more screenings at the Landmark Sunshine Theater this Friday and Saturday). Electroma’s cult appeal comes as no surprise to those of us still haunted by Spike Jonze‘s kooky video for Daft Punk’s signature hit, ”Da Funk,” which features the most memorable images of a man with a dog’s head blasting a boom box you’ll ever see.  —Chris Wilson

Yeah I do like Daft Punk, Electroma is good. Usualy I prefer the real stuf though (hardcore punk rock that is) but Daft are so cool so you just got to like them! smile
