    Yes, love them.
    The person who suggested these two songs probably wanted you to experience the fullness of the Gojira experience. But it was not typical.
    Check out Gojira Oroborous live at Eurockeennes. It’ll give you an idea of their live energy.
    And check out Mastodon, Chimes at Midnight. Not a typical song people would ask you to check out by them but it’s just fucking beautiful.
    I subscribed, but am expecting more Gojira sir!

      @@killerkingarrr You’re welcome! Gojira is definitely a band that might fit better for you (or anyone) at a certain point and time in life. What truly sets them apart are the themes and lyrics, and their passion and urgency.
      I’m in a Mastodon deep dive love affair right now, after resisting them for a long time. I saw them live with Gojira in August and Mastodon blew me away.

    Thanks for sharing your honest opinion of Gojira! Their older stuff can be harder to listen to and runs hard on the nostalgia vibes. Haven't really listened to much of their newer stuff as I've drifted into trance and techno. Since coming across your videos I've felt the call to go back to metal!!! The beat of Gojira is never the time signature you expect it to be, say it reads initially as a 4/4 for 4 bars then switches to a 6/8 for a couple of bars and then back to a 4/4, it's actual time signature could either be something like a 5/4 or a 7/8. As Jack Black says in School of Rock "Math is a really cool thing"!😂 At the end of the day though to each their own musical preferences regarding mathematical technicality, don't get me wrong though, music that gives set, simple repetitions in a well executed and concise manner can be amazing, all boils down to preference at the end of the day! Thanks for the video man keep up the honesty and great videos!! 🙏🏽♥️

    Gojira can be kind of hard to get into. I blew them off for many years because I thought they were just another leftover Korn "nu-metal" band. There is some of that there. But there's also death metal, rock, prog, "math-rock," even some pop influences.
    One day I wanted to just listen to something new, and some friends had recommended Gojira. So put the name in UA-cam and decided to try this live show from Hellfest 2013 (I think?). I really thought I would just check a track or two, you know, skip around a bit and see what's up. But no. I watched the entire performance and was pretty awestruck the entire time. The song The Heaviest Matter of the Universe and the part where they drop in to a slow, creepy Morbid Angel bit in Flying Whales sealed the deal. Gojira is NOT leftover Korn. It's more like Meshuggah had a threesome with Sepultura and Morbid Angel while Dream Theater watched and Fear Factory was kicking Fred Durst's ass in the next room....and Devin Townsend is pointing and laughing.

  • @jordanjoestar8839

    They have a song or album for pretty much everyone. A good selection would be "This Emptiness, From the Sky, The Way of All Flesh, Clone, Space Time, The Axe, The Wilderness.
    Lots to choose from! The slowest songs would be Stranded, Low Lands, Shooting Star, The Trails and Born in Winter.
    Best live metal band ever, and the Dummer mario releases solos tht you NEED to see! He won metal drummer of the year.

    Love Gojira. Favorite song is probably Sphinx? But it's hard to choose.
    Would personally like to see you react to Protest the Hero, though they also might not be your thing. Bloodmeat is probably the least pixelated of their stuff on UA-cam. The years have not been kind.
    Also, I think you might like Elder if you don't already listen to them. Sanctuary is my favourite tune of theirs.

    I feel an extra happiness when I see such videos like this. Because it tells us that we are all different. I love Gojira precisely because of what you dislike about them. What you dig for rhythm and tact is endlessly boring to me. I grew up into metal from the 70s-80s-90s, but I don't listen to it at all today. Maybe I sometimes listen to some prog rock from the 70s. Am super happy for bands like Gojira to exist today and give me so much music joy.

    Gojira is absolute in top of metal imo, thing you should know about them is, they care a LOT about the climate changes, and got several lyrics with this concept, the drummer won many awards, and is a big thing in this band some call him the best drummer in metal, and he is surely up there, i also think its important for the band to get the message in the songs out, and last Gojira got some very catchy riffs going.

      After listenning to Gojira a lot, they wont "surprise" you with their tempo changes and randomly timed noises so when they manage to catch you off guard, it becomes the highlight of the song and makes the songs relistennable, until you figure out all their quirks. For most people this is the appeal to them, but if it doesn't do it for you, that's fine, we are different. There are insanely popular bands I can't understand why people like (for example: Slipknot)
