"I don't know if i like this" Spends the entire song bobbing his head to the riffs.

[@Kenjames10]

😅

[@GreenEyedCrow97]

I feel like Gojira's Magma album is more what you are looking for. It has more melodic parts and clean vocals than their older stuff. The farther back you go in their music the heavier it will get.

[@joshua_5683]

Exactly.

[@VildhjartaFanGurl]

Yes

[@superjonh1000]

The Link ain't that heavy though, with some exceptions, the album has a good mix of tribal sounds and melodic metal. It almost sounds like nu metal in some tracks. It's so underrated also.

[@juanjr4mirez]

@@superjonh1000 remembrance is a sick track from that album, I fuck with all the albums I have listened from Gojira ( I have listened to their 5 first albums)

[@darkdeceptionkillsthelight9653]

The first album is probably one of their purest when it comes tp heaviness.

[@maggotthemadman8142]

That's because they were heavily influenced by Morbid Angel for that album, and you can hear it.

[@DOWNPOUR_]

@@maggotthemadman8142it’s morbid angel but better

[@VirulentWalrus]

A song like this is one where you just have to take the intensity of Joe's vocals as part of the music. The intensity makes songs like this so raw to listen to.

[@karljonson3287]

Crazy how they started of heavier than they are right now.

[@Eccentricjuices]

GOJIRA- “REMEMBRANCE” the Link is underrated af.

[@demondrug7788]

Oh hell yes

[@raffysg1990]

Yes

[@loyck]

Give a try to Inward Movement

[@Eccentricjuices]

loyck yes

[@PZMaTTy]

Yes

[@massthetics1013]

Why have we barely gotten into their best album yet?! The way of the flesh is packed full of bangers. Some of their very best songs are on it like Vacuity, the art of dying, Oroborus, esoteric surgery, wolf down the earth!

[@mateo_metal666]

Exactly esoteric surgery, all the tears

[@Itsunclegabby]

You mean...he's talking about how he borderline thinks Gojira are too heavy, yet he hasn't even heard a full album??

[@bostion518]

The way of all flesh and Adoration for none are sooo insane!

[@daddydawn1653]

Maynard's Spaceship the only full album that he has listened to is the bands arguably most heaviest and than when he says that he doesn’t like growls his fans give requests like Clone and Lizard skin when an album like Magma exists that a guy like drew would probably highly appreciated.

[@DareBrad]

Wolf Down The Earth is tribal afff

[@trevorbook9529]

You really need to listen to more off of The Way of all Flesh and L'Enfaunt Sauvage. I doubt you're gonna like much from their first 2 albums.

[@thoronthol1175]

Agreed Trevor... both albums are in heavy rotation in my car. Songs like Explosia and Wolf Down the Earth are among their best.

[@appeasedbeast408]

Let's gooo, more gojira please!! Make the full "L'enfant Sauvage" album

[@jasonowens4941]

I know this is a year later lol, but the title track from that album is so good, the breakdown/drum solo at around 3 minutes in is crazy

[@artemiynaumenkov9426]

You'll love The Lotus Eater by Opeth

[@adriansalinas1862]

It will never happen😔

[@fernandoborges6989]

Some other interesting gojira songs: Only Pain The Cell The Shooting Star Love This Emptiness Oroborus Vacuity

[@noisypinkbubble875]

He wouldn't like Love but goddamn what a face-melter that one is.

[@fernandoborges6989]

@@noisypinkbubble875 It's Impossible not headbang to this song

[@txhellrazor4765]

NO

[@VirulentWalrus]

Perfect time to do Space Time or Lizard Skin :D Absolute slammers on the same album :)

[@darkbeing88]

+1 for space time

[@Justdat799]

satan is a lawyer is awesome too.

[@daddydawn1653]

Drew “I don’t like growls” his fans “listen to lizard skin”..

[@efrensanchez9614]

space time by gojira is still waiting...!!! 😈😈😈

[@ricaran9278]

Gojira-Oroborus please🥺

[@bludgerabled]

Death metal IS a lot, took me YEARS to get into them. I've listened to metal for about 16 years but only got into death metal about 5 years ago. It's a gradual process. As others have said, Gojira's Magma is a real departure from their death metal influences. Stuff from Magma like Silvera, Only Pain and Low Lands especially are a lot more accessible.

[@petergjata1498]

To be honest, listening to the radio or everything else, I wanted nothing to do with music, but I started loving music once I discovered death and black metal.

[@luisalejandrobernheimgutie7104]

Why people take so long to get this music it litteraly took me one day idiot

[@bludgerabled]

@@luisalejandrobernheimgutie7104 Alright, no need to call yourself an idiot.

[@Justdat799]

space time would be perfect from this same album, space time is still heavy asf but its also strikingly melodic and groovy at the same time, very cool track absolutely should be the next Gojira reaction, and from what you said in this vid Space Time would be perfect for you

[@muscle1193]

In my honest opinion the next Gojira reaction should be the song called Liquid Fire from l’Enfant Sauvage album😏

[@michaelbrook9206]

That song is killer! The Axe and Born In Winter are some other good ones from that album

[@WishMount]

4:23 I truly believe you need to feel the music. Listen to the lead up to this drop, and then feel the groove of the actual beat. Minimise it, it's classic rock here- the rest of the genre is of course in the other sections of the track. I could groove to this all day, so catchy.

[@danielegiuliani2700]

Gojira - Wolf down the Earth

[@afiqirfan731]

Recommended 👍🏻

[@BrandonGonzales1455]

Space Time - Gojira, Good mix of a melodic verse, pinch harmonics and a heavy breakdown.

[@mattdamon9714]

Oroboros, The Axe, Esoteric Surgery. These are so great and need to be heard

[@seasicksailor8845]

If you like a calmer track from gojira, try 'the shooting star' It's the opening track from their latest album "Magma"

[@stevencrampton8506]

I think you'd super dig their album Magma. It's definitely their most accessable stuff.

[@420crim3]

Welcome to the first album bro

[@jordand431]

Would love to see a full album reaction to L’enfant Sauvage- what I would say is their most accessible while being heavy record. A lot of great gems in the track list as well (Liquid Fire, The Wild Healer, Planned Obsolescence). Keep up the good reviews man.

[@nathanlegg3543]

Have you reacted to Oroborus? It's my favourite Gojira song atm and I reckon it's gonna be one you enjoy :)

[@MeanT241985]

A Sight To Behold is really what you should check out. Its the most melodic track from them imo.....but still has some heaviness to it.

[@rapscallion52]

A sight to behold, got some melody and fun with electronic effects

[@wbrandt47]

You should react to GOJIRA - Pray, but do the extended live version from their Red Rocks performance. It’s mind blowing!

[@fuzzydunlop1988]

Saw them live hungover at about 1030 in the morning at a festival a few years back. Unreal

[@skauchmarx8057]

What I love about your content is the fact that I can tell you are really thinking about each song from a musical standpoint, you are really thinking about it as the song plays, maybe it's because I am a huge Gojira fan or maybe it is because I am from a neighbouring country that I can tell you are thinking about it I'm not too sure. Either way, I love your content, keep this shit up my dude.

[@wessamwalid7765]

Love the gojira reactions keep them coming

[@snaredo4198]

Time to do “Space Time” Drew

[@joshua_5683]

I'd really recommend you to listen to some of their newer songs, such as "Only Pain", "Pray" and "The Cell"... A lot more melodic and not too heavy (still kinda heavy though)! Might be a lot more up your alley in terms of Gojira!

[@philippesalle9961]

If you like their melodic side more , check their latest LP magma ,you'd ne surprise!!!

[@Epeli744]

That dude in the cover is me after listening to the album and headbanging furiously

[@brianspanishdrums8510]

I suggest songs from the album The Way of all Flesh. I think they are of course still heavy, because that's gojira for you, but for me, it was easier to get into them through that album personally. I still never really enjoyed death metal at all when I first heard them, but it was technicality of them, and vocals has not been an issue for me for a while. This is my favorite band of all time because if the amazing riffs they whip up, and the perfect song structure in my opinion. I would say try Oroborus by them, good song to sort of ease into.

[@jonny5696]

The further you go back in time in Gojira discography the more death metal Joe's voice is, and even really a lot of the riffs are more rooted in death metal bands like Morbid Angel. He's even said it himself in interviews that he prefers to sing with more harmony now which is why a lot of their later stuff i.e. L'Enfant and Magma are more in that sound area and use less growls, if any at all. Deliverance is the best track off the album though, you really do need to do that one. The breakdown will blow you away, but the vocals will be the same. I say try and tune out the vocals and just imagine them as another rhythm instrument.

[@massthetics1013]

Gojira - Oroborus The Mars Volta - son et lumiere/inertiatic esp Lamb of God - laid to rest

[@-Hari-03]

THIS ONES MY FAVOURITE GOJIRA SONG

[@LethalDainBramage]

Based on what you said in the video, I think you would enjoy more the "L'enfant Sauvage" album. To me, it's kind of a mix between the heavier element of previous albums and the "easy-listening" element of "Magma", their last album. Their two first albums are more on the way of death metal. Give it a try, maybe that's what definitely sell Gojira to you!

[@niciusmorales1776]

Trivium : What the dead Men say

[@kylereece1979]

Yes!!!!! I have recommended that to him a few times. Fantastic track, and the album itself is amazing.

[@goldrumble5736]

I would absolutely love to see more of gojira hear and I would recommend the song "love" but if not it's OK, also opeth Demon of the fall would be cool. But since you don't have problem with non English lyric songs would absolutely love to see you react to Batushka, they are a small band but a very unique one.

[@JBassmaster888]

Be'lakor - The Smoke Of Many Fires

[@420crim3]

Seems like your overthinking it bro, its just music, and you sure seem to enjoy it when you listen. Its the purpose of life is to percieve. Feel what Gojira exploit out of the minds ability.

[@demondrug7788]

Gojira - Love

[@rossshepherd9836]

BETWEEN THE BURIED AND ME - SELKIES: THE ENDLESS OBSESSION.

[@leoahrens636]

Also if you want some actual emotional gojira, do "lowlands". It's directly related to Joe and Marios mother and her death. It aint heavy really it' just a journey

[@scottjohnson7803]

Power Trip - Divine Apprehension Power Trip - Hornet’s Nest Power Trip - Crucifixation

[@TitovTrio]

If you ever want to back to gojira, try their "Magma" song, its very melodic and has no growls, but still progressive and heavy. I think you going to like it.

[@superjonh1000]

"REMEMBRANCE" react to it please! You need to listen to something off of "The Link". I'm pretty sure you'd like this album. The problem is that you're listening to their heaviest stuff first. Don't let this cloud your judgement.

[@miikat4427]

Deathmetal is an acquired taste but still believe "wolf down the earth" would be right up your alley

[@JadeIsBunny]

Death - Scavenger of Human Sorrow

[@kristiandreier1793]

Oroborus!! awesome groovy song!

[@wessamwalid7765]

For the 154 time React to Blow Me Away (Niverse) by gojira

[@StrangerE0ns]

If you’d like to hear their heavy but melodic stuff then you’d really like their latest album and L’enfant Sauvage, their first two are absolutely heavy face melters

[@ChickentNug]

Meshuggah does the same thing with getting melody in heavy metal. Near the end of "Straws Pulled At Random" is a good example of this, and there are a few other songs too

[@drewdavidson6976]

Gojira - Esoteric Surgery, from The Way of All Flesh album, Gojira at their best.

[@TheKrepen]

I felt the same way drew, until i heard the way of all flesh album. That album switched me on to gojira for full!

[@ashleywafler9155]

Gojira - Esoteric Surgery is what you're looking for!

[@cosmonaut999]

Hey Drew, really appreciate you giving Gojira a chance. I don't think you'd like their early stuff, but L'Enfant Sauvage and Magma really have what you seem to be looking for. I highly recommend Pray, especially the extended version live at Red Rocks 2017! I think you'd really enjoy that one.

[@JerkTheHuman]

If you want great Melodic Death/Progressive, you should definitely try Sylosis What Dwells Within/Out From Below, for example.

[@VENOMOUSspade]

I’m not gonna lie, you would probably really dig Alice In Chains. Heavy nasty riffs meets hauntingly beautiful harmonies. Man in the Box or Rooster would be a good place to start.

[@joeziggy2956]

He really starts to like them, becomes his number 2 on Spotify that’s crazy

[@lucasmyhrman3970]

you should do Pray live, they just uploaded the live video to it today and it will blow your mind

[@Kenjames10]

Yeesss!

[@lukesorensen9432]

Absolutely

[@Edmundrs3rd]

I honestly think that there is a certain parts of the mind that needs to be opened when it comes to metal. It's not really enough to listen to it but how you listen to it. I think the exact same thing holds true for rap/hip hop. Rap and metal can be acquired tastes but I've always found the best things in life are an acquired taste. It helps open the mind and breaks down stereotypes. (maybe posting while high isn't the best idea)

[@kaimeier82]

If you're looking for a heavy Song and the Gojira vibe, check out "Mouth of Kala"!

[@igorhenriquetolentinomarti6710]

Space Time

[@bioburden]

I reckon you need to take a listen to some tracks off their Magma LP, it has a lot more melody which I reckon you'll appreciate. Greetings from Waterford btw 🤘

[@wethepeople6642]

Liquid Fire 🔥 Now!!!

[@MrJordiBaby]

Clone is da shit!

[@rafaelmacedo77]

GOJIRA - world to come

[@wilbur112]

Best Gojira album

[@zackpierce708]

I totally understand the concept of not caring for the uber-death metal sound. Gojira is such an exception in my opinion. But I’ve been a rock and metal fan for a while. If you’re looking for a beautiful mix of heavy and melody, I can’t stress the band “Dance Gavin Dance” enough. If I were to suggest a first song, it would have to be “We Own the Night”. Please do this. I promise you will not be disappointed.

[@txhellrazor4765]

Gojira- Remembrance

[@daltinobambino8916]

Lizard Skin and Blow me Away You(Niverse) !! Absolute jams from that album

[@baptoufragilise]

Alright everyone in the comments saying you should react to newer stuff but now that you are in the older stuff from them I'd suggest the song Over the Flows, it's a kinda chill song from them and really different (just like the rest of the album)

[@Nudel-nc1cp]

One of their best tracks for sure.

[@craigharrelson2908]

Music like this is an acquired taste. If there are things about it you like, keep giving it a chance, it could grow on you

[@williammckee2859]

I know you've reacted to Silvera and Stranded, but if you want melodic Gojira you need to react to the entire Magma album

[@Moisanator]

You really need to listen to more songs from “The Way of All Flesh” album. Oroborus and A Sight to Behold will be up your alley... very groovy songs.

[@Astral.Kamilla]

Please react to Fleetwood Mac! 'The Chain' or 'Gold Dust Woman' both in the studio version ...

[@NooDLES411911]

Gojira is more accessible if you start with the newer stuff and work backwards. It's all so good

[@ragingstorm79]

Rivers of Nihil - Where Owls Know My Name. That's what you need.

[@brandonduke1535]

The cell is one that will suit you well as well as most of Magma, Leanfant Sauvage, and a bit of The Way of All Flesh

[@gabolujan]

Do some modern Opeth, something like Heart in Hand or Cusp of Eternity.

[@faultier3215]

Cusp of Eternity is like the worst Opeth Song ever written...

[@amonamarthfan666]

The elements of gojira you seem to love, are stronger on the newer stuff. “Magma” album is a little less death metal-y. Check out more of that one!

[@kushleafs8638]

React to gojira-embrace the world

[@mateo_metal666]

You gotta listen to songs off of the link that album is full of nasty riffs and destructive breakdowns

[@mateo_metal666]

The vocals are different than this and other albums

[@warlockdruid]

I love early Gojira. Fuck I love all of Gojira.

[@WarAbuser]

Check out anything from their newest album! That be more up your alley.

[@geetbehera3593]

It was funny that all those gojira requests also contained opeth

[@rhys.cunningham4179]

Satan is a Lawyer, very good track, same album as clone Edit: the shooting star is quite melodic, try that one

[@theweegit]

Drew, I want you to try some good Irish metal from Dublin. Primordial - Empire Falls

[@Blackname51230]

Caligula's Horse - "Bloom" and "Marigold" (they go together)

[@nicktesla61]

Gojira just posted their live performance of Pray at Red Rocks and its amazing. You should check it out 🤘

[@dangnu100]

Periphery - Reptile. John Petrucci from DT is one of the guitarists' uncle, and this track is maybe their most progressive. Think you'll love it.

[@izAngel63]

Pary l Live at red rock or Remenbrance l Live at hellfest 2006

[@bromanvt]

I think we still need more

[@leoahrens636]

Honestly I always find it strange that the request lead to the older stuff firt, because it's so unacsessible, do honestly do some new stuff like The Fall, Only Pain, pray and Vacuity

[@L4veyan]

I think Decapitated - Earth Scar would suit more to your taste, they're very technical death metal band with groovy riffs and good production quality, also the vocals aren't that harsh. The fast tempo of that song also keeps you pumped.
