GOJIRA Interview by Randy Blythe on Metal Injection (PART 1)

[@benafallouss8632]

3 of some of my favorite musicians in one room

[@SenatorGrimshaw]

Mario's english has gotten so much better over the years.

[@colintaylor9368]

Randy gave a better interview than like every other interviewer theyve had.

[@TheOneWayDown]

Here I am in 2018 watching interviews from literally a decade ago

[@yamas_messenger48]

Same

[@dorispedras]

Yep.

[@IgnacioCentu96]

Hi

[@benjamingalvez1119]

:)

[@Spaghetti-is-gross]

I'm so upset at how late I am to the show :/

[@blueskythinking4745]

Randy should do a podcast

[@zodiacmanan]

Agreed... he would be great at it.

[@Module79L]

This interview felt a bit like if God just discovered that a group of angels are now his favorite band and decided to interview them personally. XD What an honour must have been at that time for Joe and Mario to be interviewed by none other than Randy Blythe.

[@rapiststan5272]

Just love gojira so much.

[@CareyPortnoyBeauford]

after i start to really like a band i love to go watch interviews to get to know the band. just to see what they're really like. i love these guys even more, seem pretty cool.

[@BlankRami]

I love how chill Randy is.

[@DeathcoreHusky]

Very nice interview joe and mario look so shy haha great job guys!! GOJIRA /m\. LAMB OF GOD /m\

[@NamrataD-uv4dw]

Joe is just so adorable

[@sahedthebutler8685]

They look so nervous in front of randy.. Well.. Randy is actually one of the god of the metal

[@ChirodipBasu25021994]

Wohoo ! Back from the time they werent even popular !

[@ryanvids1]

Lamb of god Opeth Amon Amarth Gojira Iron Maiden Tool Meshuggah

[@superhans7989]

fuck yeah LOG interviewing Gojira

[@shadmansarrar]

This shows up after 14 years

[@itsmyzur7697]

and now they have their silver cord studio Joe and mario built in new york! \m/

[@BadACL]

You can only respect Gojira. Deliver 110% at concerts. Went to a concert with them at a small venue. After the show they took time to say hello to fans and even stayed and talked to several fans - very classy.

[@gudalpesanz]

This band is fucking awesome. I've only been listening to them for week and they're slowly becoming one of my favorite bands.

[@Akard517hell]

Gotta love that Ultra Vomit shout out! Their parody of Gojira (called Calojira) is so funny yet so accurate

[@Founworld]

Ultra Vomit are awesome too !

[@Alex26108]

@@Founworld their lyrics are really dumb

[@deivitsu]

1:00 "Oh.. Hi! I'm Joe." ENOUGH

[@alemutasa6189]

Hearing Joe Duplantier say "oh, this band is very powerful" is like hearing Bill Gates say "oh, this person is very rich". Definitely NOT as powerful as your own band bro, for sure

[@snerjeg]

I vote Randy to replace all other interviewers

[@PureHayabusa]

my dad's first name is Joseph but everyone calls him Joe and his middle name is Mario. Then i come along... i love Gojira, metal of all kinds and i play the drums. we're Mauritian and speak French. coincidence? i can only wonder

[@EntrantmentOfEvil]

He's heard the same questions a million times, so he knows what not to ask, but also knows what he'd like to be asked. That and he's a great and smart guy... so he knows what he's doing?

[@jordan45453]

I regret not getting into their music earlier. Their early shows were incredibly brutal.

[@fd8540]

they are so cute 🥺

[@sepiarain]

Truly humble dudes. I like that they touch on the french scene. Hacride, Aabsinthe and Scarve all have a similar thing going on to gojira. Technical and Monolithic. Would love a world tour involving these bands. Would be too good really. Not to mention the french black metal scene... Blut Aus Nord, Anorexia Nervosa, Deathspell Omega etc.

[@GodlyMullet]

These guys are so awesome.

[@brandonlamchops]

LAMB OF GOD AND GOJIRA NEED TO TOUR TOGETHER!

[@gudalpesanz]

I think they have

[@Wrathofa7x]

heavy metal is more than just music, its all a family of people who have respect for one another

[@wormwork]

i was listening to gojira and I said to my self. "the singer has a similar tone to randy blythe" next thing i see is an interview and here i am

[@gudalpesanz]

eRNIE mAR He sounds like a combination of Phil Anselmo, Max of Sepultura and the dude from Fear Factory all wrapped into one and the drummer gives Brann Dailor a run for his money. You can't compare them to the dude from slayer or Niko McBrain because it's like comparing a teacher to a student.

[@TristanVocalCovers]

Randy, my absolut favourite idol. + Gojira which is my current favourite band. FREAKIN' AWESOMENESS.

[@MorbusCQ]

Everyone is nice? In America? You sure you weren't on the other side of the world or something?

[@juneslugg2]

Americans aren't all assholes - only a few bad apples to make the whole bunch look shitty. The metal scene in America is way more friendly than you'd think.

[@enrie424]

+Charlie Kota Besides that, they are GOJIRA man. why would anyone act shitty with them.

[@metallic51]

i'm seeing Lamb of God, Gojira, and Dethklok September 13!!!!! Cant fucking wait, 2 of my favorite bands!

[@ipredictacatastrophe4370]

do exactly the same thing bro. It really makes you love the music way more. Like, I didn't really like Mastodon or any of Devin Towsend projects (SYL in particular), but as soon as I heard them talk... Let's just say these are my favorite bands now.

[@DyslexicGod]

France isn't a small country!!

[@juneslugg2]

Randy is from America. Most countries look small compared to the US.

[@85Aheadstix]

+Charlie Kota except for Australian, bout the same ;)

[@jean-denisharvey5219]

yeah thats why we all hate it ! XD

[@screechandmoan]

Can't believe I'm just now seeing this! Fantastic interview!

[@plasticpoetpopstar]

Can't wait to see you in Dublin. Xxx

[@jcbentura9538]

My two fucking favorite bands ever!!🖤🖤🖤🤘🤘

[@FrolicEpidemic]

Its because of Randy that I found out about these guys... I was watching an interview with Randy and he was talking about music he was listening to or some shit that he really liked.... or someshit... and he brought up Gojira... I was wtf is that? first listened to "the link" and fell in fucking love... not only did I really fucking like the actual music part but, I read the lyrics( yes i Couldn't understand some) and I felt ... describable I then also fell in love the lyrics and so on lmao

[@tlr9403]

yup reading the lyrics was the biggest surprise... especially in the way of all flesh album

[@Dalimagnus]

@PrinceD4rkstR I think it's really a great thing that someone like Randy from such a huge band give props to Gojira the way he does. Bands like Gojira really deserve the exposure and this helps a bit. IMO, though, I don't agree with your sentiment that Randy would like LOG to sound more like Gojira. LOG has it's own Solid, Violent and Beautifully IN YOUR FACE Metal sound. Both these bands are amazing! Can't wait for the next Gojira... I can't even imagine where it will take us. Long Live Metal

[@Racoulda]

ajili777 I concur, when me and my friend went to a festival, we noticed he didn't pass the age minimum, and we talked to this guy who offered to take him with him in the festival (you could enter under supervision), which was really great, the festival rocked, and metal people really ARE the nicest of all!

[@TheCman3892]

I think this is an amazing video, Gojira deserves sooooo much more!

[@alexparadise91]

While recording this interview, The Way of All Flesh wouldn’t be our for another year. That blows my mind

[@sepiarain]

Funny the mention of them always supporting when touring america. They've headlined the UK before, but recently they've had a similar situation here, first supporting trivium then recently In Flames. The thing is, literally everyone at the In Flames shows in the UK were way more excited about Gojira than they were In Flames (I know I was). Also, first timers who were there for In Flames were saying Gojira had stolen the night.

[@ufcpunishment]

i was fortunate to see lamb of god, machine head, gojira, and trivium live the same night. that kicked ass.

[@Stardrowner]

I think Randy forgot they already mentioned who they were...

[@HardcoreLittleChick]

They forgot to mention the band Anorexia Nervosa, but that's cool. These guys are awesome :) And so is Randy, of course. He's a sweetheart. Very glad to have met him. Hope to see Gojira in the future.

[@marcelb333]

yea ive seen allt hese guys live and meet them and talk to them there all very nice down to earth.

[@Chopkinsca]

I like this band. I feel like they will be big

[@frankster666metal]

so cool Randy is a metal fan himself.. much metal-bands like other stuff

[@shreyasgs94]

Whoa, finally an interview in English!

[@nillert85]

I saw these guys yesterday in Copenhagen. The freakin rock!

[@yorgishmorgis]

Gojira is pretty freakin awesome both Gojira and Lamb of GOd are my fav bands

[@theitalianstallion973]

That’s hilarious 🤣😂 that one musician was interviewing another

[@nymets071087]

randy with an eyehategod hat and an outlaw order shirt. awesome. must have been when he was recording "for the sick" with his other band halo of locusts covering eyehategod.

[@capnkdawg]

I saw Gojira AND Lamb Of God open for Metallica...Gojira isn't really my style, but my GOD they put on a kick ass show...The drummer was absolutely fantastic. Chris was too, but not quite as powerful live as Mario. It's awesome how metal kicks so much ass

[@JonSchaffer57]

Yeah, I love the ones in "The Art ov Dying", that song is fucking amazing! Esoteric Surgery is brilliant as well.

[@warjeffeagle]

They seem very humble. I can dig that!

[@300imperium]

seen both LOG and Gojira and must say they are both kickass live metal bands! FACT!

[@dillinguuur79]

3 of the coolest, most down to earth metal musicians I've ever had the pleasure meeting, espically Joe, one of the nicest humans I've ever met, GOJIRA are the truth, L.O.G. aren't too shabby either, sucks Chris is no longer gonna be beating the shit outta the drums anymore tho :(

[@demonsrt4]

I'd looove to see lamb of god and Gojira headlining a tour together.

[@Huitzel]

When I met them they knew enough to hold a conversation, at least Mario did and the other guitarist. (sorry dont know his name) They were both very humble.

[@aztecmayanamerican]

I JUST noticed Randy is wearing an Eyehategod hat. So fucking awesome!

[@SpurOfMoment]

What cool, humble guys

[@BurningMartyr]

hah, i didnt know randy had a children of bodom tattoo, thats cool. i like it when members of bands appreciate their contemporaries, rather than just competing with them

[@deathbox75]

Obliveon were another amazing French metal band...Canadian too!

[@aztecmayanamerican]

Well, No Return put out an album in May of this year called Puzzle of life. But I was thinking you might not like The CNK because they have a more industrial sound, but if you do check them out check out their first album called Ultraviloence uber alles, (back then they went by the name Count Nosferatu Kommando and DEFINITLEY check out Antaeus, thats some serious brutal death/black metal!

[@Raiderfan123]

i saw l.o.g and gojira here in Fresno, CA ITS WAS KILLER

[@benzies123]

I'm pretty content with the fact i have seen everyone in this video live, with their bands ofcourse. 2nd and 3rd best gigs i've ever been to, 2nd only to Tool, now that was good...

[@hiyoshinobu]

big oof, 14 years ago

[@TheMegaDevastator]

RUN, ITS GOJIRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ErimlRGG]

Their english sound better in here, that's weird haha

[@Caboose056]

yeah they tour a lot together, theres a lot of mutual respect. actually, im going to go see them both on sunday with as i lay dying haha

[@thinkpad20]

"lamb of god's albums all sound different" lol "they aren't afraid to experiment" double lol

[@Emanny237]

also on the song "The art of Dying" from the new album

[@Windir91]

I bet randy regrets the COBHC tattoo after 2006 when COB started to release mainstream crap. But all the guys in this interview is so fucking awesome. Would kill to hang out with them for a day.

[@jszekerj]

Exactly! I totally wish bands would play in smaller numbers and play LONGER. I did see Lamb of God at Sounds of the Underground, which was like 10 Amazing bands, LoG still played for like an hour and it killed Everything Ive ever seen!

[@thorismygod]

Klone and Trepalium was support and opening act last time i saw gojira and they were pretty god.

[@brandonlamchops]

@lorddresefer Ah that suck dude but they should tour again because I really want to see Gojira and they're my new favorite band. That would be cool if they had their own head lining tour but it's really expensive for foreign bands. If they tour with LOG it'll be cheaper, they'll gain a large audience, and I also get to see both of my favorite bands.

[@finowa]

there we go, thanks for proving your adolescence.

[@CartoonKidOLLY]

finowa oh hey finowa! I love your channel! Sick vocal covers and also primus bass covers!

[@_juanpina]

Anybody in 2020?

[@rush211289]

thank you

[@IlSH2]

these guys are tense!

[@johnathonestes1503]

2020 anyone?

[@emip666]

well by the "metal scene" it doesn't only involve the number of bands [quantity does not equal quality ;)]but also the way the metal community is structured and also the way the fans "think"....coming to the bands man you forgot Alcest ... their album Souvenirs d'un autre monde is one of the best albums of 2007 also anorexia nervosa, blut aus nord, deathspell omega are some of the French metal bands that I listen to..come to think of it the power metal band heavenly is also french :)

[@Vincere]

These guys are fucking awesome!

[@RosT182]

0:27 Gojira is beyond.

[@metal2death]

yeah dude gojira kicks ass. its a shame they are so low as opening. id definatly go if they came on their own tour. they could definatly fill up the troc up in philly. gojira should have been right before lamb of god during the sacrament tour.

[@Yaksniffer]

woah, he mentioned Ultra Vomit. Awesome

[@godak]

does anyone know what that french band was that mario suggested?

[@satan1189]

2:32 is he saying "scarred"?

[@TheAvenger62]

He said Scarve which was a awesome french band. The band has been disbanded for quite a bit, when the drummer Dirk Vanbeuren and guitarist Sylvain Coudret joined Soilwork. Dirk Vanbeuren recently joined Megadeth.

[@uf8925]

gojira is AMAZING

[@toddk1479]

Randy reppin the Eyehategod hat. Bower Power!!!!

[@lorddresefer]

@brandonlamchops they did in 09 lol I was pissed because I missed it and it was IN my hometown!!

[@MigelMeUp]

@DrRocksosBitch It's awesome because I'm actually going to a show with those 3 bands. Soundwave. So fucking pumped.

[@IlijaStajic]

metal people are just the nicest people on earth...

[@aztecmayanamerican]

hey, do you know about The CNK, Antaeus, or Anorexia Nervosa. Those are a couple of good bands from France. Just trying to help ;)

[@CareyPortnoyBeauford]

exactly! Devin is quite the character in all seriousness, lol
