They've been around for ages, but for a number of years now, they've only
appeared in costume with the helmets. And they've not done broadcast
interviews. They've given written interviews - but that's all from what I

Their new album is excellent though, and Get Lucky isn't even the best
The short version: Daft Punk was known for their house and electronica

That was why I separated the two. I agree with the thinking the second
segment was set up well in advance. Colbert tends to use very deliberate
language (similar to Dave Berry using the phrase "I am not making this up")
when he's telling the truth. If you remember the Wheat Thins bit, when he

doubts as the subsequent musical video montage unfolded, one which was
clearly created with much planning over the past month or more. So ... they
were planning that all along, and just changed the setup?
