  • Robot rockers Daft Punk bring their live show to home stereos on a new live album 'Alive 2007' due out in November. But don't expect a behind-the-scenes peek at their LED-tastic show, which features a 20-foot-high glowing pyramid-cum-spaceship, as the release will come with no live video footage. "That's the way we want to leave it right now," Bangalter told Billboard magazine. The album will instead be released as a 27-track single CD or 32-track double CD (including encore versions) with a fifty-page booklet. A live version of 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' will be the lead single from the album accompanied by a music video directed by Olivier Gondry that includes live footage shot by fans.
