Daft Punk on the cover of Rolling Stone. Peter Yang. Read on to hear it in their own words: No musical act strikes the same balance between gravitas and goofiness as Daft Punk.

I'd best describe their appearance as "those guys you went to college with who turned out, you know, fine. But as scandalous as these photos appear to be now, way back in the '90s, the French duo were far more lax about showing their faces.

Everyone is different, and some Daft Punk fans may be devastated to have their illusion broken by some photos of the faces underneath the mask. The tune got a second wind in when Kanye West sampled the Daft Punk song in his single Stronger, which went to number one in four countries, including the UK.

A year earlier, Daft Punk played the first of their legendary pyramid live shows which featured a highly influential LED light show, with the likes of Skrillex saying it "changed my life". In a promotional video ahead of the single's release, Williams said he'd talked to Daft Punk "at a Madonna party" and told them he was so keen to work with them "if you just want me to play the tambourine, I'll do it". Get Lucky was Daft Punk's most successful single at the time — only to be surpassed by the song Starboy by The Weeknd on which they featured.

It was their only song to top the US Billboard Hot and, following news of their breakup, it looks to be their last. Just as they were shrouded in mystery on their way to the top, their reasons for breaking up now also remain unclear. Their publicist Kathryn Frazier has confirmed Daft Punk's split but hasn't given any explanation or statement as to why they've gone their separate ways. The duo didn't reveal their faces yet again but fans weren't upset about that.

In fact, they were grateful to be able to see the duo wearing the gold and silver helmets for the very last time. Of course, this doesn't condense the curiosity of how they actually look.

The good news is that they have been caught helmet-less on several occasions though it was never official from their side. Plenty of old videos still exist when the concept of Daft Punk helmets was still far-fetched. The following video is a rather old interview video of them where they're seen without their masks. Have a look. In , Daft Punk had their latest and official face reveal in the form of their sculpted faces made by the French sculptor Xavier Veilhan.
