The title track, coming on like a warped version of Discovery's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger," sets the tone with a vocodered singer repeatedly intoning the words "human after all" like a frog-throated robot. The self-explanatory "Robot Rock" reiterates the disc's inhuman theme but adds AC/DC guitar crunch. "Emotion" is saturated in startlingly insincere sappiness. Like the rest of Human, it's so unemotional that it becomes unbearably poignant -- which has always been the great paradox (and humor) of Daft Punk's music.
