Daft Punk Confirm Columbia Records Alliance: French Dance Duo Change Facebook, Website Pic to Make Announcement, Fourth Album Set for May Release

French dance duo Daft Punk, consisting of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, seem to have made their arrival at Columbia Records official. On the duo's Facebook page and website they have changed the band's logo to the image below.

Pitchfork noticed the change in images on Daft Punk's website and as you can see, included with the image of two helmet halves is the "Columbia" in the lower right hand corner. The duo's move to the Sony owned Columbia label was announced by The Guardian back in January, but now fans have the visual confirmation from Daft Punk themselves.

According to The Guardian, Daft Punk will be releasing their first album since 2005's "Human After All" in May under the Columbia label. There isn't much known about what will be on the band's fourth album, but SPIN reported back in May of 2012 that Chic guitarist Nile Rodgers and "The Rainbow Connection" writer Paul Williams are working with Daft Punk. Williams also wrote hits for bands Three Dog Night and the Carpenters.

Daft Punk played live at the Wireless Festival in 2007, but it's not known when or if they will tour for their next album. The duo's last album was the soundtrack for 2010's "Tron: Legacy."

Daft Punk released their first album, "Homework," back in 1997, followed by the album "Discovery" in 2001 and "Human After All" in 2005.

For now, Daft Punk fans will have to be satisfied with the duo's Facebook teaser. They clearly are playing their new album close to the vest, which as a result, is building a lot of anticipation.

For those of you not familiar with Daft Punk, watch their video below for "One More Time" off their "Discovery" album. You likely have heard this song before, as it's the band's biggest commercial hit. It was released in Nov. of 2011.
