- One of the hottest bands in Heavy Metal today, Gojira have created a unique sound and style. In this video, Joe Duplantier will show you how you too can play with a similar sound.
I ve never heard a tele sound like that before
+AmIonArock
Jari Maenpaa of Wintersun used a Tele for parts in the self title album. Listen to the WInter Madness solos
+Garth S That wasnt a fender tho, it was a Tokai Telecaster ^^
+Deathcorelover 69 Vintage Tokai, good stuff
He added a lot of distortion but you can still hear that tele single coil tone.
I came here to say this! Any idea how he got such a fat tone? Heavy strings maybe? I was thinking about putting EMGs in my tele to give it a heavier tone but that would be a last resort
Gojira is one of the most simplistic yet complex sounding band I've ever listened to. They focus more on how the music meshes together as a whole, rather than making a fancy riff to lay over generally basic rhythm sections.
best comment bro
For sure man. It’s kind of like Chevelle. It’s simple but sounds so badass. Gojira just has a wall of sound that not many bands can’t match.
That literally been my major complaint about newer metal. So much complexity rather than just writing good songs. Gojira, Mastodon, Ghost, Volbeat, and a few other modern bands write good songs. I don't think they're really concerned with how many notes they can cram into a bar.
Those riffs were so fucking dope. Definitely a voltron-effect, where the sum is great than its parts. Anothe classic band that is like is Korn. They all add up flawlessly.
Rammstein also has super simple riffs that sound incredibly heavy
I really like how he admits that the composition lacks in complexity, but isn't ashamed of it.
That's magic bands like Gojira and Pantera. Simple, brutal, and amazing.
i wouldn't call pantera simple
there's no need to admit anything, art is just art
Link Freeman I'd call pantera riffs simple. Their riffs and solos are two different things entirely
@@jeihann exactly.
This just goes to show how important the drums are in making Gojira's sound complete.
TechMetalRules and Joes voice
Gojira is pretty much the ideal band: you need every single element to get that massive wall of sound that they are. Remove any one of these parts and you lose some of the power
@@sohamsengupta6470 well said
and the bass drop
The guitar and the drums here are like.... brothers.
🤔
joe & root are the only ones i know of that makes a tele sound so heavy
This one is even a proper single coil Tele, not like Jim Root's signature :D
Those two and John5. I can't believe he is getting that tone on that setup!
ThaTruth223 root uses emgs and john 5 uses dimarzios
Possibly my two favourites too.. Root is just amazing.
Jari Mäenpää...
I saw these guys in 04 as an opening band and no one knew who the fuck they were. They opened with Ocean Planet and proceeded to blow my mind. They were for me the best band that played. I had no money to buy a T-shirt or merch of any kind so after several beers and several joints my mate and I left the venue and headed for home. We naturally talked about the gig and I asked what the name of that opening band was. My friend had no clue much to my dismay. This was before everyone on earth had wireless internet and I was rocking dial up so I didn't bother to search for the band online. About a year later I had high speed internet and began to search the depths of the web for this band that had totally blown me away. Finally I found a link to the album From Mars to Sirius and the opening riff was that same riff that blew my hair back. Gojira, fucking Gojira. Thats the band I've been searching for all year. Needless to say I never forgot that band name again and promptly purchased the record. Had it been 25 years ago I may never have found the band that had so thoroughly destroyed me. Thank you internet and thank you Gojira.
+Kris Ross Same exact situation. I saw them in 2006 I think it was, With Lamb Of God. First song was Ocean Planet. Absoluetly fucking amazing song and record.....
+Kris Ross Awesome story Kris. My life was similarly altered when I went to see In Flames play in San Francisco in 2006. Gojira was one of the opening acts and of course, my girlfriend and I were late. Turns out even chicks who like metal take forever to get ready. Anyway, at the time I had never heard of Gojira, but my jaw hit the floor when i heard From The Sky. Then the place imploded when they played The Heaviest Matter In The Universe. Without exaggeration, that live Gojira set changed my metal path in life haha. I knew none of the songs, let alone their names, but I found out the band was from France and they were called Gojira.
I went to Barnes and Noble the next day to look them up on those red box / digital music libraries with headphones and listened to every 30 second song clip they had. Somehow they had From Mars to Sirus in stock. Utterly blown away, I drank that album down. Then I got copies of The Link and Terra Incognita, consuming those as well. Years later, I would hear The Way of All Flesh for the first time on a long drive home, right after breaking up with that same girl who went with me to that In Flames show. She had gotten the album for my birthday, but it became a parting gift. I don't think I've ever felt so cold and warm at the same time. So when you say "thank you Gojira," I totally hear you. I am so glad to have found them, and from a live gig no less. Even as I write this, L'Enfant Sauvage is in my car CD player.
Saw them live in 2002, they were playing in a bar with less than 100 people in their hometown in southwest France (as I'm from there too), I hated metal back then and was only listening to Hip-Hop, but some friends liked it so we went in this bar. I didn't like the concert and spend most of the time outside smoking joints lol. But 10 years later, i began to listen to new types of music, and fell in love with Gojira since then.
Also I can't believe how far they have gone since I saw them in this small pub.
Lol they have american fans now.
They were already really famous in Bayonne back then though, they had many local fans (my friends were die hard fans) but it was 2002, and no one outside southwest France would knew them.
True love bro
Conan O'Brien great story man! gojira is amazing! my profile pic is a shot of mario’s drum kit at a concert this past october. fantastic band live, blew the roof off the place
The heaviest tele of the universe
Perfect description. Thank you fellow citizen of Earth. \m/
He seems like such a genuine guy. Like one of the few musicians now that actually care about the fans.
Maynard James Keenan yup that's good
Maynard James Keenan lol
Most musician's be like "hurr durr thank teh fans"
But then they charge $2,000 a meet and greet.
Suqdis Dique imagine if the meet and greet was like 50 bucks. insane amounts of people would buy and there would be a shit ton of work, not only the managing of the band time but all that safety stuff + they need to have their own time for themselves too, they are humans, they cant be "band mode" all the time
What part of this video gave you that impression?
Elefant's sausage
masterkwaq this had me rolling
masterkwaq PERFECT 😂😂😂😂
Infant sausage
Huge
@@maxkiller5150 yikes
So simple but combine the whole band together and its a ball busting wall of metal!
Yes, first time I listen this song my mind was truly blowing!
PSYCLONE23 wall of Death* ;)
1:55 We interrupt this Gojira song to bring you Enter Sandman. X)
haha, if only some toms were added
not the only one that noticed ^^
Very similar yes
I’m obsessed with Gojira’s sound
riffs really don't have to be more complicated than this to sound massive and generally ballin ^^
It's all in the songwriting
To all the people saying that this is simple, you are missing the whole picture. This riff is perfect for this song and fits perfectly with the other instruments. That is not a simple task folks!
I've never heard a single coil sound so thick!!
Vape Nash Yall
Simple but to the point. I love it
+Ryan Berno yes, the guy does not give us bullshit, wish my coworkers would do the same in the office
Awesome. Its all so simple with each part out of context, but the genius is in how it all comes together. I think its much more masterful to be able to do so much with very little. I think their focus on, not how many notes you can pick, but how many ways a note can be picked is why they sound so unique compared to other metal.
e.g. songwriting :-)
James Burwell Indeed, it is just songwriting. Good songwriting though. I guess I'm just praising it because so many metal bands rely on how flashy or technical their playing is, but its often just a novelty, many can't genuinely write songs very well.
Nicholas Mahoney I whole heartedly concur. When joe is playing an individual riff I'm thinking "any jabronee can play that". But Nicholas is correct putting it all together, therein lies the challenge.
Man, your comment is exactly what i think. It looks sooo simple when you watch the parts. All is in the combination and in making the sound.
One of the best things about Gojira is how *tight* they are as a band. It's "simple", but absolutely airtight without any kind of over-eager gate. Such a great band
The whole song is epic, but i think the outro riff is absolutely monstrous!
The outro riff is the same as the intro.
This guy seems talented maybe he should start a band
maybe he should also teach his younger brother some beats so he could play the drums.....food for thought
Every time this stale tired comment gets posted on a video it never gets any less funny
lol... "everything is the... in the delay, actually". that was a good insight.
god that tone is so tight
i find it incredible how Joe can make single coils sound so heavy
I like how he showed the opening riff for the first half of the video and is probably the easiest one so beginner learners could definitely learn that one more. And than progress on
This dude should be in a band.
The In Waves posters 👀
wow, can't believe I haven't seen this yet but that third riff was fucking sick.
The tone is insane!!! Love you guys so much!!! Thank you for sharing your gifts with the world!!!
Proof that a lot of making a great song is playing with good feel. These riffs are simple, but with them combined and the drums, that song goes fuckin hard.
Thank you so much for sharing this! These are one of my favorite metal riffs I've been wanting to use in a bootleg track I'm creating. Very useful sounds in this video!
Incredible, so simple yet awesome
Ah, the power of simplicity. Thanks for sharing the secret :)
OMG that intro is so simple and yet it's a master piece!!!
That's the magic of Gojira!!!
Telecaster single pickups? Hoooolishieeeet. Sounds awesome
Definitely a stacked humbucker.
probably not, check my channel where I demo my single coil strat. Single coils are vastly undermined.
2:16 I really don't know how to describe it with words
Mystical
I think it's the word, if ever one could describe Gojira
I love it when people tell you that you can't play metal on a telecaster. If anyone ever says that to me again, I'm sending them here!
I never paid attention to this band,til yesterday. I really like there sound.
Grande Joe! admiro muito seu trabalho com o Gojira!
1:52. Sounds so fucking badass.

"Iv'e never heard a tele sound like that before" I have to put this comment to rest. My comment wasn't based on: Is this a real Fender? No it is based on, This Musician is tearing it UP!!! and on open strings, DanggGG! This dude is a up and coming slayer in my book. i would like to see these guys live. So my apologies to all that misunderstood me and to Mr. JOE (Mr.: added to give respect)
A single coil tele just dominating. i love it!.
I am HUGE fan of Gojira and fucking love what Joe calls "third riff". If you play guitar and/or want to learn this do yourself a favor: Pause right before he starts playing/explaining the third riff and cut the playback speed to .5. There is so much more going on with what appears to be a very simple riff. If hadn't been moving around so much while playing it I never would have slowed it down and been able to see what was actually going. He just says its a "strange chord" but there is way more than a strange chord and some chugging.
Thank you All Axess for an awesome video.
Thank you for highlighting the nuance. Interesting.
Love this guy so much . Best band by far
I love this song so damn much.
Tele: "Can you play some country??"
Joe: "Chug your mouth, will ya?..."
Thank you Joe!!!!! Could watch this all day and on every song off of MAGMA!!! :)
Playing metal on a Telecaster. Fuck yes
Amazing guitar sound.
He is AWESOME!
I'm not musically inclined and this riff always fucks with my head. It almost sounds like it's being shot out of a cannon only to be stopped briefly, and then feels almost like it's being played in reverse. It's simple enough but sounds very engaging and unique.
awsome song writers
I’m in love with that tuning
Woww...that tele has also changed its music preference to metal!! 🔥🔥
when i went to gojira´s concert in Biarritz you could see how determined and how simple the guitar was it was epic
He's such a well spoken guy and speaks great English!
I fucking love Joe.
fucking love the riff
I love their pick scrapes
holy shit just added a new fav guitarist to the list 🤘🤘🤘
Chris Stevens same bro
I love you joe !! 🖤
That's just raw!
That zoroaster shirt......... Fuck yeah
One of the best bands ever.
Joe: It's very simple actually
Telecaster can literally play any style and will always sound best.
e6e2e3e1 yep! It all comes down to EQ.
stupid
Most people - "Telecastors aren't metal!"
Joe Duplantier - "Hold my beer"
- "Hold my single coil"
Que marca es la telecaster?
"Hold my Tele". 😆
Génial.
I love how Gojira can make something so incredibly simple to play sound so amazing.
Also, is that really a Tele?
It's suprisingly hard to nail down perfectly and hence makes up for some great exercise
Proof the Tele can do Metal.
The Heaviest Tele-tone Of The Universe
I never thought of plucking strength in making different notes! I always assumed it was a higher fret.
Man the slow versions of the intro riff is sick.
Thank you!!
did you say "thank you" on the Frog leap studio (Leo) channel ?
Finally a proof that telecaster CAN DO METAL.
The slowed down bit he played at 1:51!!! To die for!!!
That's basically the Enter sandman riff
I like how comments on Gojira videos are always very civil and courteous. Metal has became quite an elite music :)
Ah. Simple but skillful. I like it.
@1:52 listening to it again wow, badass riff at a slower pace
Why didn't they make the chuggy guitar part in the verse riff alternate between the first fret and open string so that it matches up with what the higher guitar is playing?
I didn't read the title and i thought wow he looks quite alot like joe
sa mérite largement plus de vue srx
I will learn this song by simply observing you Joe no tab needed
He always has the best tone
First day of playing guitar I’m trying to learn this
How its going?
best Gojira song ever iif i heard it first time just cpuldnt believed how good and progressive
Simple, yet very fucking effective.
that guitar sounds so fucking good
damn id love to sit & jam guitar with joe.
I love the sound of that Tele. Dog's bollocks, man. The dog's bollocks.
The lower output is great. You can hear all the dynamics and finger articulation.
Teles are great metal guitars! had a Squier Tele Custom, best thing I ever owned :(
2:39 dilly dilly!
Joe duplantier un muy buen musico artista a tocado en grandes ligas hablo de cavalera y cña lo mejor sin duda
"sometimes live we get carried away (...)"
Guy on the internet: "You can't play metal if you don't have high output, active guitar pickups".
Joe Duplantier : "Hold my beer...."
first time saw a regular telecaster with a single coil sounded heavy
Does someone know exactly which telecaster it is ? I don't find this model with this color on websites as Thomann ... Really love this one !
Thanks !
Zoroaster shirt! Fuck yes!
Dudr your the fucking man.
Watching this on speed 0.5 makes this even better
I agree the dilee is very important
Trivium In Waves Poster on the Background!! \m/
You know, if I already didn't think Gorjira was one of the coolest metal groups out right now.. This and the Mountain biking video prove it (at least to me!)
