Daft Punk - Random Access Memories: My review and semi-obsession

Image
Is anyone else really stoked that Daft Punk just came out with a new album?!  Their new album Random Access Memories  debuts today, May 21. From what I've seen and heard so far, I'm pretty excited. Since it was just released today, it's on iTunes. Here's the link to it that has minute and a half samples of each song if you'd like to listen to them for yourself! Isn't that about the coolest album cover? As far as my Daft Punk fanaticism goes, I was first introduced to them when I heard a couple of their songs played at dances. I never knew who the artist was, but I always liked the music. I never really researched them until their song "Harder, Better Faster, Stronger" was sampled in Kanye West's "Stronger". (On a side note, it always really bothered me that he never credited them for his sampling of their music. Not even a "ft. Daft Punk" next to the title. What's with that, Kanye?) This song was a huge hit...
