    As a African American male I grew up surrounded by hip/hop and R&B culture. I branched out musically thanks to bands like Pantera/Metallica/Fear Factory. I grew to enjoy different genres of Metal but honestly my interest and love for it grew stangnent for an extended period of time. Gojira has brought the love back, so much fire and depth to thier music. It's great to see others hear them for the first time and grow to love and appreciate the greatness of this band.

    I love that you guys are digging Gojira so much. They're so refreshing. A distinct lack of traditional guitar soloing and an obsessive dedication to the groove, bludgeoning heaviness, and melody is such a winning formula that they pull off like almost no one else.

    To understand the Song you need to listen to the whole Album, as it is its own Story. In the Story Humans come from a different Planet, Sirius, and were sent here by entities from Sirius.
    Unfortunately humans ruin the Earth and need to find a way to save it. So they ask the Flying Whales for help. The flying whales teach humans how to fly and the humans fly off to Sirius to ask the entities for help with saving the earth. The last song on the Albumthen basically isa warning to not let it get as far with the real earth.

    • @steliosp1770

    Guys! A little bit of the story behind the album. _From Mars to Sirius_ is a concept album that relates the resurrection of a dead planet through an interplanetary quest, tackling environmental issues as well as broader themes of life, death, and rebirth. Explaining the meaning behind the album title, Joe Duplantier (vocals and guitars) said that "In some cultures, Mars symbolizes war and Sirius peace. I'm simplifying! It is a journey of a state of war, even if in France we are preserved, but it can be a war within us, in our flesh, in our mind, a war with ourselves". (From the Wikipedia page of the album)

    I really enjoy seeing you reacting to metal tracks.
    A lot of respect to both of you for being so open-minded and just loving music of any kind.
    I wish there were more people with your mentality.

    I remember when I first heard Gojira and it was Flying Whales. were three phases:
    1 - I fell in love for the beginning and the whole part of the whales singing.
    2 - I started liking the guitar riff at the beginning and I hated the vocals.
    3 - I started to love the whole song.
    After all this, I became a Gojira fan. Obviously, i went through other songs like Oroborus and became hypnotized by the Mario's drums

We know they've done some work on it, as evidenced by this song, but who knows if the album is ever actually going to get released.

    I saw no one suggesting The Art Of Dying here in the comments, which bums me out a little to be honest. Such a mighty song, the groove and the rythym plus the lyrics ... I'm sure the boys would enjoy it the most of the songs they listened up to this point

    • @Jeremy-yt3kz
      @Jeremy-yt3kz 6 років тому +22

      Significant Otter The Art of Dying has one of the most intense lulls and builds of any song I have ever heard. The climax to that song is absolute perfection. I’m glad to see someone finally suggesting this song!

      @theTYTAN3 6 років тому +2

      Yeah I saw that one. I decided to show one of their more atmospheric songs to my drummer and he hated it and it turned him off to them. So I was worried that was going to happen here.

    • @waterguyroks
      @waterguyroks 5 років тому +2

      Not Important Yeah it's weird, I find that most of the time they'll be honest and say they straight up didn't like the song, though they always try to find something positive to say either way. But other times it's so clear that they're just pretending to enjoy it so as to not offend the band/the fanbase. I get it though, it's probably a lot of pressure knowing your videos are going to be seen by tens of thousands.
      I appreciate that they have a different perspective than I do on a lot of songs I'm very familiar with, particularly lyrically. And they they know what they're talking about a lot of the time, they're good listeners. They usually pick out what is unique about a particular artist which, if you've ever tried to play a metal or prog song to someone who doesn't listen to that kind of music, you'll know is not a common feat.

  • @Liz-cmc313
    @Liz-cmc313 6 років тому +28

    I really have to say thank you to you guys, big time. The last 6 weeks have been the darkest I've ever experienced, with things having progressively become more devastating without letting up, but for the 15 or 20 minutes that I get to watch your videos, especially reactions to one of my top 3 favorite bands (Gojira), has been one of the very few things able to break through, silencing the grinding for a moment.
    Thank you for doing what you've been doing.

    That excitement and atmosphere you're talking about in the beginning of the song is even more palpable at a live show.

Most amazing crowd to, Gojira fans are some pretty badass people. \m/ I'm a new fan, but a fan for life now. Loving your channel, new here to, rock on!!

    @lqid10t 6 років тому +71

    You guys actually turned me onto Gojira with your video on The heaviest matter in the universe. After seeing that video, I looked into them a bit more and found this song as well, and it has become one of my favorite metal songs. I'm glad you guys finally circled back around to this song, because it's definitely one of the best. If you can, check out Dream Theater - Panic Attack. it's definitely more on the metal side of their catalog and in my opinion, would be a better introduction to the band.

    • @brennand933
      @brennand933 6 років тому +3

    • @Justin_u_tube

    From Mars to Sirius is a concept album that relates the resurrection of a dead planet through an interplanetary quest, tackling environmental issues as well as broader themes of life, death, and rebirth.[2] Explaining the meaning behind the album title, Joe Duplantier said in an interview that "In some cultures, Mars symbolizes war and Sirius peace. I'm simplifying! It is a journey of a state of war, even if in France we are preserved, but it can be a war within us, in our flesh, in our mind, a war with ourselves".
    -From the Wikipedia page of the album with both 'Heaviest Matter' and 'Flying Whales' on it.
    No idea when Gojira is touring near you again since they were in vegas in august last year: www.setlist.fm/setlist/gojira/2017/the-joint-at-hard-rock-hotel-las-vegas-nv-3e55533.html

  • @diogenesclay
    @diogenesclay 6 років тому +34

    They're touring Australia and Europe this year, so you guys will have to wait at least until fall for them to come around the States again. But I agree, you guys should definitely go see a metal show, get the feel for the atmosphere, it changes when you're there, soaking in the energy.
    You guys are bona fide metalheads now, it's been fun to watch you become fans. What you're seeing and hearing and liking in Gojira, that's how it starts. You start knowing what to look for, what you do and don't like, you notice nuance that just got lost in the noise before, and you start to like it. Shop around, find it elsewhere, and welcome to the club!
