Robot rock: the best droids in music of all time
It's not all about Daft Punk - the best robots in music of all time from Bjork, Flaming Lips and more
- Flight of the Conchords: The New Zealand comedy duo donned robot costumes for their 'Robots' music video - although they were disappointed by the homemade costumes, saying, "We wanted ones like Daft Punk." The song is the story of the aftermath of the robot rebellion, when the robots are dead. Possibly the only song to include a binary solo.

While the impending and mysterious return of Daft Punk is getting us all excited, it's also left us in a bit of a robot mood... if that's even a thing for beings made of fleshy bits.
And while you might not think at first that robots and music go together - at least not outside of electro - you'd actually be very wrong. So wrong, in fact, that we've even come up with a gallery with fifteen robotic examples to prove it.
While Daft Punk themselves are, of course, included - we've also got a few surprises in there. If you've ever wondered what Bjork, 3oh!3, Janelle Monae and The Flaming Lips all have in common, well, now you know - it's something of a very robotic nature.
So plug in and take a look through our gallery...
