Agreed. My friend got me to go see them live. I had never heard of them before but I had heard of deftones so I went. I’ve always like heavy music seen all my favorites live, but this band was on another level the energy was unreal. No performance I’ve seen has come close!
Love that you’re bringing this band to a different audience than normal. Gojira have been one of my favorites for almost 6 years now, truly masters of their craft.
I agree, it is a style, you love it or hate, but cool that ppl are grabbing to it, and explain why they like some stuff. You can be a guitar player, and it may not be your style, but they explain why it can work.
Gojira has consistently been my favorite band since I saw them open for Metallica in 2009. Never found any other band that comes close to their sound. It's heavy, groovy, and spacey. A lot of their music also carries a great message, mostly environmental. I never miss em when they come to town.
First time hearing Gojira and I am hooked! Love the funky style and arrangements. Just spent the last 3 hours listening to a couple of their live performances on YT.
Gojira is the one band i believe EVERYONE should experience live at least once in their life. Seeing them live is just a visceral, spiritual experience. Theres just something about them.
Seen them for the first time 2 weeks ago and they were indeed incredible live, and they played this song towards the end of the set so I can now die in peace
Metal Michael on this fine Friday. Never heard of Gojira until I saw them open for Lamb of God and Trivium. The opening riff was engraved in my brain and they’ve been one of my favorites ever since.
@@SrgntSprnkls77 the LoG + Trivium tour was From Mars to Sirius days before Oroborus was released, my guess would be The Heaviest Matter of the Universe. Sadly, I was still in line to get in when I went to this tour, so I don't know what they played first on that night.
Joe's vocals are actually extremely unique, since he mixes clean voice with growl. There's like a very audible clean tone underneath his very brutal, distorted growl/scream. Its not only really difficult but nobody does this the way that Joe does. Thats what makes his singing so good and original
Gojira has so many bangers!! With a hugely diverse sound album to album, even song to song. You MUST dig into Gojira!! This is a great song, but not their best…keep going with Gojira. They are amazing
@@ben99687Vu à Paris Bercy cette année, tellement énorme ! 18000 personnes dans une salle rien que pour eux ! Je les ai vu en 2003, on était 300. On sentait déjà que c’était un groupe spécial ! Des monstres
@@Defttool Wow tu a de la chance d’avoir eu l’opportunité de les voire en 2003! Si j’avais pas eu 3 ans et que j’habité en France, moi aussi j’aurais aimé les voir à cette époque.
Metal is where you will find some of the best guitar playing you've ever seen! Not that there aren't fantastic guitarists in other genres, it's just metal guitarists tend to do some of the craziest stuff!
This was their closing song when I saw them last month. I had been on my feet all day at work and then drove an hour and a half to the venue and stood on my feet for another 4 hours from when doors opened to when Gojira took the stage. My legs and feet were hurting, I had been awake for almost 18 hours by the time they started but I forgot about all of that. Such a great live band.
Yes I've been hoping you'd do some Gojira these guys are awesome I saw them in Sacramento at the aftershock festival and I didn't really know who they were but I've been a fan since that day they are amazing live. Love this song 🤘
Backbone!! Genius song from a few years ago. I'm pretty new to Gojira too, and am still exploring, but haven't been this excited by a heavy band for years. They are absolutely the real thing.
Just like we shouldn’t sleep on EVH amps, don’t sleep on Gojira! U know, i love everything about them, their evolution, their sound, their story… And Mario does not use triggers. He’s been named best metal drummer couple of times for a reason. He’s just so musical..
Absolutely wicked you're checking them out. It's pronounce Go-jee-rah btw. :) As for the boys, Mario is clean, timed, and seemingly effortless perfection on drums. Joe brought some different sounds to guitar, and the band as a whole brought; in my view; a new genre, or at least unique in their genre. The Duplantier brothers are truly just musical geniuses. Phenomenal bassist as well. I'll be seeing them in Montreal in August. Meet & Greet. Can not freakin' wait! \m/
I'm a big fan of Flying Whales by them, it's very atmospheric. That whole album (From Mars to Sirius) is great. Of course, so is this one (L'Enfant Sauvage), as is Magma, and Fortitude, and....well, all of them. Try out "Stranded", "Flying Whales", "Amazonia".
I discovered Gojira about two years ago and I’m so happy I did! Learning all their songs now. Next from Gojira you should check out Pray (Live at red rocks). Amazing performance, this is the song im struggling with now, I´m up to 75% speed on this one, its a tough one :)
I was never a fan of this type of music but then I listened to Gojira and I'm simply blown away. I am a drummer and this drummer is so versatile and adds so many different flavors to every song. They made this heavy thing into a melodic type music.
Ohhh yes!! Such a phenomenal band to react to! And a nice change up from more blues genres we see frequently. I’d love to see more of the metal and what you think. Fit For An Autopsy is another great band with very clear Gojira influences. Keep up the great work, Michael!
And that, my friend, is the Gojira slide. Gojira actually has a song where they only use Telecasters. It's from their youth, but they recently recorded a live version from their studio, it's on YT- "Inferno Live"
Been listening to the 'Jira for long enough to love that you're pausing, and running it back to piece it together. These French gentlemen are truly artists, and gods amongst men.
That Silver Sky is beautiful!!!! I just bought my first PRS today, a Custom 24. I am so excited and I can't wait to pick it up from Sweetwater tomorrow. Totally worth the 3 and a half hour drive! Watching your videos and seeing your guitars is what convinced me to go PRS for my next purchase. If it lives up to all the hype, it will be my favorite guitar. I played one at Guitar Center for a little bit and loved it so I'm sure this one will be the same!
Best live band I have ever seen and I have seen bands come and go for over 30 years. They can play both arena and small city venues and bring the same energy, it's been amazing every time I have seen them across the globe, from all over Europe to Latin America and in the US.
For the first time since I caught your first video I see a band that has caught you unprepared to replicate lol! I love Gojira, and I love your breakdown of it, makes it much easier to learn to play it!!
ART. OF. DYING. Actually, this would primarily be for the drumming, though the outro is great. If you want to hear the whole band in their best light, go for Amazonia, or Born For One Thing
This was the first song I listened to from these guys, I would here the name thrown around a lot. I listed to it, man! It is a feel thing, it just struck me in a good way. Love my metal and this turns around to more groove. Love it.
Michael, Dallas Green released an acoustic version of Meant to Be; I’d love to get your breakdown of it. Been trying to learn it for a while. Also great video as always 👌
I once dropped a Goijra song in one of your live streams (L'enfant Sauvage)... You definitely seemed interested, but some of the people in the stream were a little shocked 😁It was hilarious. I believe it was a Telecaster stream. Great choice, very deep catalogue
Definitely not but they are an important metal band in this day an age. Metallica is easily one of the most important metal bands ever, Gojira is not that even if they kickass and are important today.
After watching their live at red rocks performance, I can confirm that the kick pedals are indeed not mechanical and is actually him playing it. Which makes it that much more impressive
It's funny, Gojira has slowly united the rockers of the world. The focus change from harmonic to stank face in the dirt @3:31 says it all. Rock is coming back babyyyy!
No matter the instrument you play, whether its drums, guitar or bass, gojira songs are so hard to play stamina wise, literally the perfect band to play along to improve your stamina lol
❤ amazing band. All 4 of them is running at full revolutions and the vocals to me fit in to the music perfectly 🤘😈🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 It's your channel and you make sense of the riffs of cause it would not sound exactly like that❤🤣🤣🤣 I watch you to get a guitarist opinion and perspective I ennoy your channel so thank you very much. You do you brother 🤘🎸🔥🔥🔥🔥
one of the best metal band of the last decades , too bad they got very famous just now , they're not shredders or anything like that ,but they have a style that's their own ,if you want more tapping check out gojira , oroborus live eurockeenne 2009..no triggers by the way
Very rarely comment on videos, but love your channel and following for a long time. That little note bend you do around the 10:10 mark sounds like the opening bit to “God of the Godless” by High on Fire. Don’t need to react, but really cool to catch little notes like that in different parts of the music world!
Hey Mr Palmisano! Gojira has a song called ‘Art of Dying’. George Harrison also has a song called ‘Art of Dying’. Could you take a listen to the George track and maybe if you like it could you do a break down? It’s got some nice arrangement and I just can’t figure out some of the stuff George/Clapton are doing in the background but I can always focus on your lessons!
Gojira is easily one of my favorite bands. Michael if you're ever bored, check out Blind Guardian. They're a power metal band from Germany that does a lot of Lord of the Ring lyric/themed songs/albums. Both guitarists grew up being classically trained and it shows through their guitar playing. Mordred's Song is probably a good start. Some acoustic mixed in.
pronounced Go Here Ah based on most interviews I've heard (but I miss pronounced Sepultura for years). One of their focuses is is on environmental issues and they've talked about it before wanting to create sounds that made you feel uncomfortable. But as you said this is all extremely thought-out. I will say when I found them it made me excited about Metal again.
You pronounce the J from Gojira as a normal J. It's the japanese pronounciation of "Godzilla", it was they're early name but it's a brand so they had to change and they chose Gojira (you can find some early EP on youtube from the period they were named Godzilla btw). Hope i teached u something ahah
Loved the break down...Would love to see you check out Meshuggah, Demiurge. Just discovered this song in the last few weeks and has some of the filthiest tones, grooves and drops I've heard from a band
Kicks are triggered, at least on current tours, confirmed by the drummer himself. He is playing every note though, he’s got some insane endurance during other double kick songs.
Joe is a great singer. His harsh vocals are so emotive and melodic. Dude that requested this is the silliest goose in the pond. Also Mario is a fantastic drummer but definitely not the best in the world.
MARIO DUPLANTIER uses hybrid triggering on his bass drums so their half triggered and half acoustic so he can tighten up the overtones and stuff and Mario loves acoustic sounds so nothing else is triggered his snare his toms and his symbols no triggers without triggers the bassdrums would sound a little mushy it’s like putting a Guitar distortion pedal on your guitar it helps out the distortion but that’s the only reason why he has hybrid triggering their first 2001 album terra incognita they were completely acoustic but in their next album the Link btw the best the link songs are Rememberance, Embrace the world, and Death of me that album Mario stepped his double bass game up and blast beats so ge started using triggers
Gojira is one of the best bands I’ve ever seen live.
Fact
Agreed. My friend got me to go see them live. I had never heard of them before but I had heard of deftones so I went. I’ve always like heavy music seen all my favorites live, but this band was on another level the energy was unreal. No performance I’ve seen has come close!
One of the best bands period.
Not my personal favorite, but they are definitely up there with Lamb of God.
Same, I’ve seen a lot of great concerts but Gojira was amazing live.
Amazonia live, the feels man the feels
Love that you’re bringing this band to a different audience than normal. Gojira have been one of my favorites for almost 6 years now, truly masters of their craft.
Thx Sam!
I agree, it is a style, you love it or hate, but cool that ppl are grabbing to it, and explain why they like some stuff. You can be a guitar player, and it may not be your style, but they explain why it can work.
heaviest matter of the universe would be nuts reaction on this channel
I agree

damn you saw them in their peak meaning 2009 , every performances is incredible but especially in 2009 , joe's voice that year was awesome
You should Check out Fit For A Autopsy
I saw them in 2016 and it's been my favourite band since then
Poor Metallica. Poor Lars lmfao
You have GOT to check out Meshuggah then :) Gojira and Meshuggah are like a match made in heaven.
First time hearing Gojira and I am hooked! Love the funky style and arrangements. Just spent the last 3 hours listening to a couple of their live performances on YT.
great isn't it ? :)
Live gojira is the best
Would recommend Toxic Garbage Island at Hellfest 2016. The ending line of "plastic, bag in the sea" while people mosh is phenomenal
Watch Red Rocks.
Gojira is the one band i believe EVERYONE should experience live at least once in their life. Seeing them live is just a visceral, spiritual experience. Theres just something about them.
Seen them for the first time 2 weeks ago and they were indeed incredible live, and they played this song towards the end of the set so I can now die in peace
I look forward to finding out for myself in a few weeks!
Several tries before have fallen through. Have tickets for Gojira, Mastodon and Lorna Shore in August. Hopefully it works out this time.

Gojira is such an incredible band. The riffs, the melodies, the brutality, the messages. Brilliance.
I’ve never heard more emotion put into a scream than when he sings “the gift… of GUIIIIIIILT” at 9:15. Goosebumps every time.

YES! Dude, my 2 favorite bands are Gojira and Opeth and you've hit both of them recently. Right on!

Gojira, Pantera, Lamb of God
Who else?

Gojira is as important to heavy music today as Metallica was in the 80s and early 90s. They’re absolutely unbelievable.
Definitely not but they are an important metal band in this day an age. Metallica is easily one of the most important metal bands ever, Gojira is not that even if they kickass and are important today.
I’m going to have to try out this finger tapping style once and see what I come up with
I’m seeing these guys with Mastodon in May and I cannot wait!! Fully prepared for the headbanging concussion I know is coming😂
Gojira Oroborus live at Eurockéennes 2009 is a must
I felt personally attacked when you called us out for being mad about you figuring out the guitar parts on your single coil 😂😂😂😂
One of the best bands out there atm
real solid breakdown my guy! been follwing ever since your first Polyphia vid, def love the content!
This is the word "Godzilla" in anglicized Japanese.
Came here to learn some blues lol see gojira fuck yeah man was not expecting that! Learned on metal been really into british blues lately though
After watching their live at red rocks performance, I can confirm that the kick pedals are indeed not mechanical and is actually him playing it. Which makes it that much more impressive
It's funny, Gojira has slowly united the rockers of the world. The focus change from harmonic to stank face in the dirt @3:31 says it all. Rock is coming back babyyyy!
It's metal though, fortunately it's been there for a long time and isn't dying anytime soon 🤘
Gojira presents: Tapping Exercises Vol. I
No matter the instrument you play, whether its drums, guitar or bass, gojira songs are so hard to play stamina wise, literally the perfect band to play along to improve your stamina lol
I’d say it’s more of a workout plan for drummers 😂
yeah backbone is a wrist killer for guitarist xd but once you've done it it's a great exercices

Love gojira, they are incredible
one of the best metal band of the last decades , too bad they got very famous just now , they're not shredders or anything like that ,but they have a style that's their own ,if you want more tapping check out gojira , oroborus live eurockeenne 2009..no triggers by the way
The vocals only being ok is an insane take from the original guy
I think it's more that I'm not a huge fan of the growling vocal style. Also I don't listen to a lot of metal so I don't have enough to compare it to.
@@ChrisHoltDC Oh that's fine lol! I just say that because he popularized a really specific type of pitched screaming that most metal singers can't do

Gojira is epic. So much stuff you should check out.
I like the single coil pickups with reverb ☺️
I've seen gojira and slipknot and both drummers are too notch.. Jay and Mario are amazing drummer. Best I've heard...
If you haven’t seen Gojira live you haven’t lived. Best live band out there.
I burst out laughing at that acknowledgement of the Mayer guitar direct into the amp. Great stuff man, fuck it, try it on a ukulele next time !
Gojira are amazing.
About time you did gojira
Art Of Dying is a must, I also love Vacuity big time. But TBH these guys cannot write a mediocre song, it’s all gold
Bro you having not covered Animals as Leaders yet is almost criminal 😂. But would seriously like to see you take a deep dive into them
"Gojira" is "Godzilla" spoken in the way of the of the people being terrorized by him in the early versions of Godzilla. And now I think I'm a fan.
Love Gojira they’re incredible. Just seen them live with alien weaponry in UK. Please give Alien Weaponry a review!

It takes a while to get used to but eventually you won’t get enough of them; there’s something primal about it.

I am a convert - fantastic band so different.
The intro reminds me of Iron Maiden's "Flash Of The Blade".
You pronounce the J from Gojira as a normal J. It's the japanese pronounciation of "Godzilla", it was they're early name but it's a brand so they had to change and they chose Gojira (you can find some early EP on youtube from the period they were named Godzilla btw). Hope i teached u something ahah
Check out Pony Bradshaw Van Gough. It's an absolute banger. Have to listen to the version released by him on YT
Loved the break down...Would love to see you check out Meshuggah, Demiurge. Just discovered this song in the last few weeks and has some of the filthiest tones, grooves and drops I've heard from a band
I was gonna say it's much easier in Drop C lol they either use that, standard D (most of their songs) or a weird C minor open I think?
GODZILLA! That's how you say it (with a Japanese accent) of course.
The original Title of "Godzilla" was "Gojira"
Kicks are triggered, at least on current tours, confirmed by the drummer himself. He is playing every note though, he’s got some insane endurance during other double kick songs.
some other songs with interesting guitar parts are The Way of All Flesh, Oroborus, and space time
Joe is a great singer. His harsh vocals are so emotive and melodic. Dude that requested this is the silliest goose in the pond. Also Mario is a fantastic drummer but definitely not the best in the world.

Check out Silvera, or Enfant Sauvage. Beautiful songs. Among so many others.
Please react to more Gojira. Please! You won't be disappointed.
