Guys, it's ok to focus on the drumming as much as you do. Mario is widely praised as one of the best drummers in the world (not just metal too, just in general) and a lot of Gojira songs are quite literally built to empower his drum patterns. He went to a fairly prestige jazz drum school and was known as a prodigy and a perfectionist from a young age. Aside from Gojira, him and Joe also had a really underrated jazz fusion/metal band in the early 00s that is also a good showcase for his craft and versatility
Just so you know.. I’m in about four years deep and I still feel that way.. listen to them every day, and discover something new almost every time. Enjoy the deep dive.
Same here. Just like they say, just when you think the song can get any nasty, it goes nastier, that shit and the groove blowed me away. Coming from groove metal, I needed something fresh but heavy and groovy at the same time. Gojira had it all.
Good to hear my friend! I've been going deep on Gojira recently as well. I listened to The Link years back and some other random songs over the years, just casually. Not really a fan of the "death metal" stereotype or other bands that are often categorized that way, but after discovering Magma I couldn't deny or avoid their unique mastery and am an eternal fan now. I personally kind of approach their style as a "picking up the torch" from Pantera and infusing it with a bit more depth, thoughtfulness and melodically driven progress but all the nastiness and cathartic powerful anger that great "metal" deserves. In my honest opinion. So excited to see them next spring with Deftones!
Welcome! I call this band life metal with a death metal sound. They are technical and groove in the heaviest way. Thoughtful lyrics and full band effort every album.
When you explain what you mean by “nasty” trust me, we understand. Most metal heads will describe really awesome riffs, vocals, songs as being sick, disgusting, gross, dirty, etc. so you good lol
I've always found the song structure of opening high intensity and ending sort of more calming to be deliberate in its craft. The esoteric surgery being unlearning and cutting out the toxic stuff humans hold onto. At first the song is brute force and fury. Through healing, time, and a lot of work the song reflects the peace of mind discovered in its sound. Obviously super subjective.
About the mellow ending, on the album that same ending is played on the previous track The art of Dying. So in a way it is both at the end and start of Esoteric Surgery if you listen to both tracks back-to-back.
They put on amazing shows. One of the few metal shows I've ever been to where I was torn between fucking shit up in the pit and watching the absolutely psychotic light show. Their stage presence is fantastic too.
This whole album is just fucking insane drumming wise. FMTS has their best melodies and is overall my favorite of theirs, but WOAF is next level in the drumming department. It’s not just super difficult, it’s more than anything just crazy memorable.
It's pure masterpiece spreading a feelong wich is not possible to explain. Like standing on a fucking mountain, wind blowing and a huge army marching behind... WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I've been following you guys for a few years now, and as a long time metal guy and. GOJIRA fan, the passion with which you fellas speak of music is so engaging and just fun to watch. Love the tunes, love your thoughts and the channel. Keep em coming!!
I think lots of gojira fans subbed for that, their reviews are some of the few that have genuine feeling. Also they've made a lot of people into gojira fans from their reviews.
Fun fact: This is actually the one song Gojira said they won't perform in concert as it's too demanding and therefore the reason why they don't play The Way Of All Flesh in full.
@@mtgguiltfeeder4111 I'm pretty sure they said they won't play Global warming live because it's a pretty sad song, and that's not precisely the vibes they want to put out in their shows.
@@Andre232323232332323 it’s like ~ 7minutes of straight tapping. Sad or not, it’s a tough song to pull off timing-wise and I’m sure it’s exhausting as hell.
If you notice the drums more, then talk about the drums more, it's all good. There's a reason people consider a band's drummer to be the backbone of all bands, from Jazz to Technical Death Metal. I've been a guitarist and singer for over 15 years but I always take heed to the drum-work over other roles in any new band I listen to. It's the main part of any music that gets us moving to the jam bruh :)
I say that i am a Gojira fan... but then i have missed songs like this from them... i disappoint myself... i really have to go back and listen to every track... this song when to the top 3 greatest gojira sing there is... my gaaad!
I wish I could properly express the amount of gratitude I have for you guys, for allowing us to see all your musical discoveries. Still my favorite channel since day 1. Keep em coming, guys. 💪
What the song speaks about is that when you heal your inner self, your soul, your consciousness, then your physical matter follows along. All health problems start internally in one's mind.
Vacuity is my favorite song from this album. Sometimes with their albums, like with this song, you need to listen to the next song right away. They lead into each other very well. They make those lulls in songs to give a sorta break before beating you over the head with more heavy in the next song lol
It’s funny that Ryan talks about the whole “inverse” thing for the ending of this song, because even though he was talking about just switching the ending and beginning, in this context if u take the ending of this song and The Art Of Dying, and play them in reverse, it’s the melody to the riff of Esoteric Surgery. U can find them on UA-cam of those 2 endings and Wolf Down The Earth ending being played in reverse
You gotta check out Adoration For None off the same album. It's got guest vocals from Lamb Of God's Randy Blythe and has one particularly *insane* breakdown!
Love you guys are going back to gojira but would love some reactions off the new album. Some bangers there. Amazonia, New Found, Grind are all great along with a couple others. Appreciate your work guys.
One thing they have to see from Gojira is the extended live version from Pray played at Red Rocks. I never thought a Band could play this level this perfect on Stage 🏅🏅🏅
NICE! you guys finally got to this gem! The song "the way of all flesh" on this album is great as well. Also for this album check out Vacuity, wolf down the earth (myfavorite), and adoration for none featuring Randy Blythe from Lamb of god on vocals with Joe. Also the ending you guys refer to is the beginning of VACUITY!!!!!!
Yes! Gojira time! This album is a masterpiece! Vacuity next, just do it.... I can't wait for you to get to "Toxic garbage island" and "Ouroboros" though. Keep it up! 🤘🏽
Yes! I’ve been waiting for this for so long! I knew Ryan would love this shit! The main riff is insane. I’m surprised you guys haven’t reacted to this before! You guys absolutely have to react proper to “wolf down the earth”!! Much love and peace 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
When the song starts it makes you feel desperate and frenetic, then the song evolves and takes you to a lighter place, when you can experience the healing and finally be in peace with yourself. Also, this is one of the most important songs for drumming in my opinion.
That outro leads very nicely into the next song, which I don't think you have covered yet called Vacuity. If you do that, listen to this outro first. It would be cool.
I’m so glad you guys did this song! I requested this a few years ago and have been holding out hope to get the chance to hear the song for the first time again through your ears. This track is my favorite off The Way Of All Flesh.
I feel like the song structure maybe starts off as a mind/body in discomfort/disease and through the knowledge and action of healing the anxiety of the disease or discomfort eases into a more calm and zen like condition that is reflected in the music.
Fuckin love you guys, always puts a genuine smile on my face to see how tickled y'all are listening to gojira. Y'all should definitely give something off their first 2 albums a listen since ya haven't delved that far back into the discography yet
This is classic awesome Gojira, glad you got to experience it. I will say though, as much as you guys LOVE Gojira and the aspects which you say you love them for, please check out Orbit Culture's new EP. Any song on there will not disappoint and has the "nastiness" you spoke of in this video. Even if you do not do a reaction video, just do it for your own personal enjoyment. - you're welcome.
I just posted for y'all do to this and now I find it. Just as I expected you all were so into this and I love it. This song is my go to for a good push in the gym
So, that soft section at the end is actually the same audio as the end of The Art of Dying, which is the track right before this one on the album. It’s essentially a build up into the beginning of this song. Then they bring it back to wrap those tracks into one another, sort of playing on the opposite yet inextricably connected themes of death and rebirth. So what you were saying, Ryan, is spot on!
Looks like you guys gonna jump up and mosh when listening to Gojira. Gojira & Deftones happen to be my favorite bands so hope to see you guys when they go on tour together🤘🏽From the Sky is my jam from Gojira FYI
Joe has said it’s because he’s not confident in his ability to play and do vocals at the same time for this song. He can do them separately no problem, but together it really gives him trouble.
Got to see Gojira again this past weekend. Shorter setlist, but they managed to squeeze in Backbone and Flying Whales, AND the first time they played Born For One Thing, Another World and Amazonia in front of a live audience. It was fucking amazing as always.
Y’all should do an album review on this album, I think the outro sections of the songs would make more sense in context. Y’all (by that I mean Ryan lol) had the same type of reaction to the end of The Art of Dying. In the context of the album those calm sections are like a breath of fresh air among the chaos of all the other heavy shit around em
i love watchin y'all listen to this. this is one of my favorite gojira songs. i've been meaning to watch these videos for years because they keep getting suggested to me ( on my main channel ) but y'all are great and i love what you do. thanks for breaking everything down and explaining the technical aspects for what make this song so powerful. the message is what drew me into this band but the instrumentation of these talented dudes is what keeps me coming back. shout out to all the other blk metalheads out there man! i'm there and i see y'all
Gojira will sometimes do these long tail-offs that set up the next song on the album. The song after this, Vacuity, comes in with this heavy half-time slamming beat to snap you out of the trance. It rules.
The end of this song IS the beginning of the next song, "Vacuity". The ending is also a track being played backwards, so great ear.
wanted to write this, comment need a pin :)
It's esoteric surgery (acoustic) played backwards!!
@@WishMount and it's used in the outro of Art of Dying as well
It’s just a simpler clean guitar version of the intro riff of Esoteric Surgery. It also appears on the end of The Art Of Dying
how do u even say vacuity cause i still find it hard

Lol I remember when they posted the Enter Sandman reaction and it was their “experiment into heavy metal” 🤣 been subscribed and loving it ever since🤘🔥
Their war pigs reaction back in 2017 was the first video I have watched from them. Since then I was hooked!
I just got into Gojira. I am going through that feeling of being blown away like when you first heard Metallica in the 80s.
Just so you know.. I’m in about four years deep and I still feel that way.. listen to them every day, and discover something new almost every time. Enjoy the deep dive.
You are in for a really good ride my friend!

@Lost in Vegas -- Next DEFINITELY needs to be Vacuity, that song fuckin chugs soooo hard, you guys would love it.
Whole album is so good
Whenever I listen to Vacuity I get this visual of a bunch of Vikings rowing their balls off through a storm.
Vacuity was the first Gojira song I ever heard, have been hooked ever sense.
I second that. It has all the elements the guys love
Vacuity is my hype song for interviews.
The biggest tragedy is that we will never see George's unbiased reaction to that mean chorus in Toxic Garbage Island
OMG WE NEED IT
@@Kai_O_Cad at 3:05 they added the note that they've heard Toxic Garbage Island before and thus can't do a reaction video

The ending is a beginning to the next track, which is Vacuity. Such a miss that you guys didn't do the two songs together.
Art of Dying - Esoteric Surgery - Vacuity - Wolf down the Earth is the best stretch on any of the Gojira albums, in my opinion
Gojira new found from the new album would be a great reaction
My favourite song on the album. I’ve listened to it 316 times so far 🙃
Gotta love the end of ‘Grind’ though. Beautiful outtro.
Unfortunately, the record label keeps taking down reactions to anything Fortitude. A handful of UA-camrs contested it and won, but that's rare.
One of the best Gojira's album
the best imo followed by "from mars..." and then "l'enfant sauvage".

You have GOT to do Vacuity immediately after this one, that ending transitions straight into it, and it’s the heaviest song on the album
Here's my vote for either 'Planned Obsolescence' or 'This Emptiness' off the 'Le'Enfant Sauvage' album. Hugely underrated deep cuts.
watching this channel grow up to what it is now is just a wonderful experience
Oh snap another Lost in Vegas Gojira reaction! That’s why I subscribed in the first place lol
I think lots of gojira fans subbed for that, their reviews are some of the few that have genuine feeling. Also they've made a lot of people into gojira fans from their reviews.
The DuPlantier brothers are generational talents. The X Factor someone like Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell have. Mind blowing
If y'all are gonna do stuff from the newest album, ya gotta jam Sphinx. Such a beautiful marriage of heaviness and groove.
They just did
Took em a year but I knew they'd love it
Fun fact: This is actually the one song Gojira said they won't perform in concert as it's too demanding and therefore the reason why they don't play The Way Of All Flesh in full.
IIRC “Global warming” is on that list as well. I can’t imagine doing that tapping for several minutes straight, mid-show.
@@mtgguiltfeeder4111 they did the Global warming live studio video for that reason, people wanted it live and they explained how hard it was to do it

This song gets you in a really nice series of heavy grooves. One of their best hidden gems in the catalogue🤘
my favorite of theirs. The lyrics are really good, too!
Beginning kind of reminds me of the power of I and I by shadows fall
Imo gojira’s greatest album, an absolute masterpiece.
Yes, this👍🏻👍🏻
Agreed!!!
It’s the album that sealed the deal for me. That being the deal that they were here to stay. In my ears and head for life, they are here to stay.

Vacuity kicks ass. its so different from their other songs. Just a long droning heavy, dark sound.
Super track. A lot of good wisdom in many songs by Gojira. The power to heal yourself, even more a reality in the fifth dimension.
Guys. PLEASE do vacuity. The ending to this flows into it and it's my favorite Gojira track. I know you'll love it.
I'm voting for Vacuity or Sphinx next!
New found too bro. Hold on too

Mannnnn I was the FIRST to request this track when yall first discovered them & everyone was requesting the singles lol. Omg a 3rd restart. 🤣🔥🤘
Vacuity is probably my favorite off the album. So simple yet so beefy with the droning guitars
My friend is the LD for Gojira. We actually met at the Vegas show y’all went to!
Snot! I’d love to see that reaction. Such a great album from those guys. Get Some! RIP Linn Straight.

When the song starts it makes you feel desperate and frenetic, then the song evolves and takes you to a lighter place, when you can experience the healing and finally be in peace with yourself. Also, this is one of the most important songs for drumming in my opinion.

Yes thank you. Vacuity next??
It's always great when you two really enjoy and have a blast listening to a track \m/

Gojira just straight out fucking RULES 🤘🔥
I remember your very first gojira video and how you guys just went insane. These videos never disappoint!
That “ending” i have always thought of as a transition to the following song in the album “Vacuity”. It ties together.
Have you even done one song from the Link album, and dug a little deeper into their origins? I'd suggest Remembrance.
Terra and Link are pretty much untouched by LiV.
So, that soft section at the end is actually the same audio as the end of The Art of Dying, which is the track right before this one on the album. It’s essentially a build up into the beginning of this song. Then they bring it back to wrap those tracks into one another, sort of playing on the opposite yet inextricably connected themes of death and rebirth. So what you were saying, Ryan, is spot on!

shout out to all the other blk metalheads out there man! i'm there and i see y'all
They carry......the "motive"at 13:50. Thats what you were saying in music terms. I have always enjoyed your analysis of Gojira.
Enjoy the channel guys, been watching for awhile. Seeing Gojira in OKC in a couple weeks!
Gojira will sometimes do these long tail-offs that set up the next song on the album. The song after this, Vacuity, comes in with this heavy half-time slamming beat to snap you out of the trance. It rules.
You've gotta react to the new Masodon song! It's really melodic unlike the first single!
