Daft Punk & Leiji Matsumoto's 2003 anime masterpiece Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem tells the story of the abduction of an alien music band by an evil human character who has dark plans. Essentially an anime visual album, Interstella features the entirety of Daft Punk's seminal 2001 album Discovery as its soundtrack, including iconic anthems such as "One More Time," "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger," and "Veridis Quo." Says Shinji Shimizu of Toei Animation, who produced the film, "'One More Time' was playing all over the town at that time! I felt so proud that I wanted to shout to people on the street, 'We are making its animation now!'" As a visual album, the film was cut into individual music videos, and it has been very rare to see the film in its entirety in cinemas.
Apple Music named Discovery as the #23 best album of all time. It has also landed on best album lists from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, Rhapsody, Resident Advisory, BBC Radio 1, and British GQ. Guardian critic Alexis Petridis wrote in 2020 that "Daft Punk were incredibly prescient: play Discovery and it sounds utterly contemporary."
Discovery has been certified Gold in the US, Platinum in Japan, 2x Platinum in the UK and 3x Platinum in France.
