Vacuity please I’m never gonna stop asking lol

[@Zeadbanger]

Please, react to Alcest - Printemps Émeraude. It's something out this world.

[@Defensive_Wounds]

This song is about that literal 'toxic garbage island' floating in the ocean...I am sure you have heard of that!? It is fkn HUGE! Just plastic floating out there, the size of a large country... www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/great-pacific-garbage-patch/ It is about 1.6 million KM! That is twice the size of Texas or 3x the size of France... This is what the song is about!

[@Defensive_Wounds]

@@lamiana That is a great song, but *Deliverance* is better!

I think you'd like L'enfant Sauvage.

[@MitchellvdEeckhout]

beautiful song

Gojira is always god tier

[@toddlerwipes]

You like Marvel and Gojira. You're a pretty epic lad I'll sat.

[@WellnessIKIGAI]

Oh shit didn’t think I’d find you here, respect my bruhva

[@leviathan3630]

You're actually fucking everywhere

[@totallynotjohn8083]

Holy shit dude I didn't expect you to be here, Gojira is awesome

[@theone132435]

Where is "Where Dragons Dwell" from Hellfest 2013? You are missing out :(

[@DrewFortune97]

Patience my friend, patience.

[@jcgacio94]

Oof, that one is something else.

[@senorchips8528]

He’ll love it when he gets to it

[@_portis]

@@DrewFortune97 ya, it's time. see the drummer, hear the vocals. oooof

[@liamhopkinson3062]

Yep, I prefer the live version in some ways to the album version in this particular case.

[@stevewampler2161]

I’ll throw one out that rarely gets recommended (I’m assuming because it’s a bit different from their usual stuff). “A Sight to Behold” off The Way of All Flesh

[@Deminese2]

Actually one of my favorites its catchy as fuck.

[@llittledrummerboy4035]

"A Sight to Behold" is easily underrated but it's a good song, 1 of 3 favorites from the album. You should definitely listen to it.

[@TheJaxxT]

Deliverance or Clone by Gojira. Please please please. Oh, The Link, Backbone, Esoteric Surgery, Vacuity. Dude there’s so many song I could recommend to you. Oh, almost forgot Of Blood And Salt... ok, I’ll stop now

[@aceayy9973]

Clone but live If he sees them live maybe he will take off his cap , to pay repects

[@TheJaxxT]

Ace Ayy yes! Live is incredible. They’re just the greatest band in existence to me.

[@TheJaxxT]

Ace Ayy Remembrance live too!

[@senorchips8528]

You almost forgot Pain Is A Master.. and Shooting Star.. and Love.. and Oroborus.. and Only Pain.. and L’Enfant Sauvage 😂

[@TheJaxxT]

Senor Chips haha there’s just so many

[@aceayy9973]

React to Gojira -clone live Gojira is at their best live

[@cmillivol98]

Check out Esoteric Surgery, that one will blow you out of your seat quite literally as soon as the song starts

[@THECODgOd1790]

Gojira gives me goosebumps every time. Every time I listen I'm reminded why I fell in love with them. The Cell was my intro to this band.

[@JayPlays705]

Please dive all the way into their discography they have so many tracks that will never get recommended but are some of their best like mouth of kala , the axe , Yama’s messengers just to name a few

[@theone132435]

I agree. Most people suggest only the most popular songs, but there are so many that get no attention. I personally love Of Blood and Salt, but never see anyone recommend it

[@davebcf1231]

True, and that goes for all of the bands that lots of reactors choose. They're going with the most popular suggestions, but all of those bands have awesome stuff that no one ever reacts to.

[@JayPlays705]

Thomas Paulsen yeah and the fact it also features Devin Townsend makes it more surprising it’s never recommended

[@JayPlays705]

dave bcf yeah every band has amazing obscure songs

[@bakerfilmsTV]

Space time is underrated

[@nathanbellott6682]

In Maidjan! It's a song by Heilung and it's insane, you should try it!

[@SeanD313]

OK Drew, now that you've heard the song, you can watch the DrumCam: "Mario Duplantier - Toxic Garbage Island live" kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYDEi3h8qa2neZY 🤘🏼

[@fraserinnes9903]

I've never listened to Gojira until 3 days ago. Gojira are quality

Hasn't anyone said anything about Mastodon? Cause the first albums are mindblowing in such an unique way.

[@emilianoacosta8761]

Mastodon and Gojira are two bands who revolutionate how make metal

[@jcgacio94]

@@emilianoacosta8761 totally. Both of them bring huge inspiration for me and my band as well, great minds to learn from.

[@daghetto101]

Mastodon sounds whack

[@DJC171]

As others have requested, it would be great to see you react to Gojira- Gift of Guilt Live at Brixton academy. Best live performance I've seen from them.

[@Ulasamasa]

The 3 that ill promote till they get their shot is.. VACUITY LOVE WHERE DRAGONS DWELL (live at Hellfest)

[@aceayy9973]

You should react to Gojira Gift of Guilt again This time live in Brixton. Its better than studio version

[@The_Wild_Healer]

It actually is, I can't listen to the album version any more. Same with Global Warming at Silver Cord Studio.

[@aaohknsn]

@@The_Wild_Healer Same. How rare is it that a live version sounds even better than the studio version. Only Gojira...

[@jamesparker8808]

I disagree...

[@CesarRamirez-wq5nb]

React to Ocean Planet or Vacuity

[@The_Wild_Healer]

Ocean Planet

[@toughy9450]

These two tracks deserve far more attention than they ever seem to get.

[@rhys.cunningham4179]

Ocean planet is underrated af

[@toughy9450]

This tune is about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, where much of the crap we humans throw out ends up.

[@ricaran9278]

Again, LOVE the reactions! Silvera, Global Warming, Lefaunt Sauvage, Where Dragons Dwell, Ocean Planet, Ouroboros, soooo many good songs left

[@kb470]

It's amazing to watch someone become a fan right in front of your eyes

[@bostion518]

Some suggestions for songs to react to: Backbone, Remembrance, Low Lands, L´enfant Sauvage, In The Forest (or any other song cause they are all insane.)

[@HelixNebuIa]

Gojira - Global Warming [Live at the Silver Cord Studio May 2018] Amazing performance!

[@intuitivelee561]

VACUITY is a fantastic song from Gojira. Super hard.

[@NaumAlberto]

Wait till you hear something off their first two albums...

[@SixFour504]

I would recommend a song from their first album Terra Incognita called "Love". It will absolutely blow you away and everyone else who haven't listened

[@mashuushiro4267]

You've got some more albums you haven't heard anything off of. Try the song Love from Terra Incognita

[@curtismorgan9789]

Please do either Gojira Esoteric Surgery or In The Wilderness or both lol both are bangers 🤘

[@alanthompson2753]

The Way of All Flesh is such an experience

[@rhys.cunningham4179]

You will enjoy L’Enfant Sauvage, the first track off the way of all flesh is Oroborus, which you should do because it’s amazing

[@frankov_83]

Esoteric Surgery has some of the best drumming on that album 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@austinnathan]

Gojira - A Sight to Behold Live at Vieilles Charrues Festival, its really different from their other songs but its still a bop

[@luke9677]

ahh this is great stuff, seeing you listen to all these bands and songs is like reliving hearing them for the first time myself

[@jonny5696]

You said you've listened to a song from each album, but you've missed Terra Incognita and The Link. For Terra, highly recommend either Clone, Love or my favourite Gojira track, Deliverance. As for the The Link, highly recommend Rememberance but watch it as The Link Alive rather than just the album track. Keep up the great work my dude.

[@reecewillmott-rice4360]

Just come across your page, always nice n refreshing to see someone who has an open mind and genuine appreciation and interest in music, regardless the genre. Over the years I've come across n love such a wild mix n variety. Always benefits having an open mind. And watching all reactions to the transitions, the heavy drops and all that reminds me of why I fell in love with these band's, way back then haha you have to check out gojiras live performance of remembrance. The end is absolute madness

[@KuBaYa87]

I subscribed for this and Opeth! Keep going strong my dude!

[@braden755]

Nobody's mentioned the album The Link by gojira. Its SUCH a headbanger!!! Try it out!!!

[@jacobmilan1372]

Gojira are total monsters live. Theres a great video of them playing Wisdom Comes that accompanied the link alive live album. Theres also great footage of them playing lizard skin and the art of dying at a festival on France back in like 2010 or something. Anyway! Happy to see you enjoying Gojira so much.

[@martinclaxton5826]

From The Sky is a great track which has slipped under the radar over the past few year's mate. It's a good classic Gojira all rounder. Take care

[@The_Wild_Healer]

Nice this song is a beast. Esoteric Surgery pls

[@danstein9247]

Greatings from basque country,Spain!

[@atzerk3854]

TBH, I'd find it inhumanly difficult to keep myself from just diving into their albums straight away if I were in your place. Thanks for letting us see your first reactions! Reminds me of myself hearing these banging tunes for the first time... Keep 'em coming :D

[@FerretChloride]

Bruh, this slaps harder than my iguana’s tail. Can’t believe I’ve never heard this Gojira track. Thanks for introducing me to this one!!!

[@michaelroyston719]

Loving these videos, reinvigorates how much I like Gojira. Would love to see you listen to The Axe and Mouth of Kala.

[@unclefred8731]

this song was the first thing ive ever heard from gojira, was blown away, still one of my favorites if not my favorite.

[@kylereece1979]

Thats a good identifiable practice you mentioned there- letting the music and melody zone you out , getting lost in the moment again and again. Then,the lyrics will impact you even more once you have gotten the vocals and mappings of the riffs round yer senses. This song is fecking cool with huge care and attention to the subject matter. The lads grew up by the French coast,seeing pollution and how its harmed the aqua life underneath,so yeah as you said, in songs like this they really hit home how they feel about enviromental issues. Im hedin' into me terd week of Stay In now. Ive no idea when work is back on the cards- so keep the reactions a comin'. Ill recommend the zany bonkers brilliance of Devin Townsend "Genesis" to ya again, if you like songs with multiple changes, tempos and moods. Also in the groove metal department, Ill say Pantera's "Walk" or "Mouth for War". Again, stay safe mo chara.

[@ragingstorm79]

Gojira - "Of Blood and Salt" (which is a song with Devin Townsend and Fredrik from Meshuggah).

[@tomtomthebear]

Dude explosia my man 🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🏻

[@danielegiuliani2700]

Gojira - L'Enfant Sauvage

[@stevethornton3901]

"And the world is sliding away in a vortex of floating refuse, With the sacred one you have lost." I'm not sure a lyric has ever hit so deep, with them riffs,,,, uggg

[@j402906335]

Into the Wilderness is a pretty brutal track off of From Mars to Sirius, where Global Warming Live at Silver Cord is a powerful song which follows a message similar to this track regarding the earth, which also showcases Joe's incredible voice. There are so many more tracks headed your way, you're going to love them all. lol

[@declanoetjen3035]

If you wanna check their earlier stuff and see how they've developed their sound over the years definitely check out either Clone or Satan is a Lawyer (for something a lil different) off their first album Terra Incognita

[@FoolForRespect]

Gojira - Remembrance The Link Alive. Filmed in 2003, and back then they were already playing perfectly.

[@DomTheDragonSlayer]

Loving the Gojira dude ! No dislikes ! Never seen that that ! good work ! 'Backbone' 'Gojira' !

[@curiousfiend1169]

Gojira has become one my most favourite bands, I alway find it humorously insightful witnessing others first experiences of Gojiras powerful creations.

[@octopus189]

You're having too much fun with Gojira. Love watching this journey of yours 🤘

[@DrewFortune97]

Wayyy too much fun🤣🤣🙏🏻

[@octopus189]

Keep the vids coming bro, they sure help kill the boredom of isolation! Be safe!

[@tyraelasylum7175]

you have to react to Silvera from them, a masterpiece !

[@patrickmccarthy-bull6191]

Way of all Flesh is my personal favorite Gojira album. Well, I like the demos a lot too but those don't count. Nice to see other Irish peeps get into metal. I recommend reacting to either the title track 'The Way of all Flesh' or 'The Art of Dying.'

[@wolfinthesno]

There entire discog is amazing. Do all of it!

[@grafgingula6961]

Was waiting for this reaction

[@mikeross8227]

Good reaction bro..... you’ll really enjoy the track Of Blood and Salt

[@Fh4ntomToSirius]

2 under appreciated/lesser known or reacted to songs that are insane are from the sky and in the wilderness, some of my favorites from gojira

[@luke9677]

the shooting star is a great, albeit much much calmer song by them to just get lost in and get taken away by, super atmospheric and my favourite song by them

[@coreysmith9847]

Definitely

[@Krofius]

Gojira - Where Dragons Dwell live Hellfest 2013 or Gojira - Explosia live 2014 Brixton Academy.

[@timproseus7633]

Poland rock festival was an awesome live quality recording for many of their songs as well. One of the things gojira is most known for is their ability to play their songs as good if not better live than they were on the recording.

[@panteliskalifatidis6020]

you can check Primordial - The Coffin Ships,very powerful song and they are also from Ireland!

[@Defensive_Wounds]

0:17 - That has to be the FIRST time anyone has said that to me, usually it is - get outside, get some air, do something! I can't play my drums or bass outside tho or record songs outside tho! *Gojira - Deliverance*

[@apotatofarmer2871]

If you want a break from the heaviness, I love Low Lands. It's one of my favorites from their discog, and it literally makes my hair stand up.

[@1bulletaway]

I think you might be ready for some In Flames. "Cloud Connected" "Trigger" or "Touch of Red" would be good intro tracks.

[@pugovitz]

"My heart gets heavy thinking about the giant trash island in the ocean." "Yeah, England is a joke."

[@haydenveals418]

Explosia is a K I L L E R track, one of my personal favorites. And with some other projects, Strapping Young Lad's "Love" is another banger that you might like. Loving the content dude!!! 😁

[@wpf312]

From the Sky...makes me feel good

[@gojirarules1547]

Definitely gotta check out their first album; Terra Incognita! In The Forest - Gojira

[@ericmahr9445]

Great job and thank you for the needed distraction. Please think about playing Oroborus or Love! Also for a new band (not too crazy hard) I would highly suggest Intronaut as you seem to like the longer journey that Tool or Opeth provides. This group is jazz infused. I would try Elegy or Cubensis to start. Thanks again and cheers to you!!!

[@TioAceite]

Damn our boy going hard with these uploads hahaha Thanks bro! You wouldn't happen to be uploading any Opeth reactions soon would you? ;)

[@DrewFortune97]

Tío Aceite none edited but as of right now but I got nothing but time brotha ;)

[@rybo0072]

If you want a brutally heavy song by gojira try wisdom comes it's back when they was more of a death metal band

[@yuceliko5459]

you reacted to all Metal bands out there except for the most amazing one yet.... Dream Theater?

[@F13thvoorhees]

I have been absolutely spamming for L'Enfant Sauvage... I am here to continue. lol. It means "The Wild Child" in French. Check it out! \m/

[@borislavmitev3961]

Gojira is one of my favorite bands. But now it's time for you to drift to yet another journey - I suggest you to take a listen to My Dying Bride. For almost 30 years these british gents (and sometimes ladies) gave us a perfect match to a bottle of red wine and black candles. 'Feel the Missery' from it's homonymous five years ago effort is a perfect start to a band with no bad song in it's list. Cheers. .

[@megadeth8592]

Oh yes this song is amazing!

[@mastoner20]

Honestly, the studio versions of Mars to Sirius, L'Enfant Sauvage, and Terra Incognita are fucking amazing, but their live versions.... Man, if you want that next step up from these tracks hit them up!

[@raffysg1990]

Space time by gojira is one my favorite songs from them you have to check it out

[@JadeIsBunny]

My absolute favorite gojira song.

[@ConnorQuimby]

If you want something really deep by Gojira, I’d recommend “Saturate” from their 1998 demo of the same name. It’s got the feel of Terra Incognita with even more chug, and the usage of voice as an instrument makes it even better. Unfortunately it’s demo sound quality. They really need to rerecord it! \m/

[@beng1137]

Magma, Pray, The Shooting Star are all great tracks from their newest album.

[@Metallicainjection]

ma man. you're missing out on The heaviest matter of the universe. pure GOLD !!

[@thomatos2005]

[@jakey11922]

Soen - lotus. A brilliant album I think youl love

[@TopSetUK]

Gojira - Global Warming [Live at the Silver Cord Studio May 2018] . It's a live-studio recording and it's absolutely phenomenal. It has everything I love about Gojira, great songwriting, clever riffs, atmosphere, dynamics, bonkers drumming. It's also cool to be able to see them all play their instruments.

[@TopSetUK]

Also really loving your content keep up the good work mate.

Do Possessed by Gojira. It was the 2nd demo out by them from around 1997. Good old school death metal.
