[@timglasser9502]

So Your feed back is good however one thing to consider here. Is Joe (lead singer guitarist), and Mario ( brother of Joe Duplantier and drummer), their mother was on her deathbed when they wrote this song. It's basically about her dying and they have no more time with her and also the anguish and pain from not having time to reconcile hardships she endured and also not being able to say good by to her.

[@VinAndSori]

Dann

[@meruemsama7770]

this song is about dealing about the death of joes (singer) and marios (drummer) mother. finding out the diagnosis and feeling like there is nothing you can do. (joe and mario are brothers for those who don't know)

[@jhoggatt51]

Your thinking of shooting star

[@mimoucremeux]

Pretty much all the Magma Album

[@SKULLEDBUICK]

@@jhoggatt51 Definitely not just Shooting Star lol. Read the lyrics to each song on Magma.

[@Roonagu]

First song (The shootin star) and "last" song (Lowlands) are definitelly about death of their mother. But other songs.. The Cell is about social media.I am certain that I heard Joe say in interview that Stranded is about..well being Stranded in the toxic relationship.

Gojira -- Oroborus. The guitar work is rapid, intricate, and phenomenal, and it's their best song.

One of my favourite shows I’ve been to was Gojira with Devin Townsend Project and The Atlas Moth. This was right after L’Enfant Sauvage was released so I got to hear some ridiculous songs (Gift Of Guilt, Backbone). Unbelievable set of bands on that tour

[@notchjohnson2540]

"Leave the moment alone"_ could perhaps be related to the line _"The cure is somewhere in the silence"_ , which you noticed in the beginning of your analysis. *Opeth - Blackwater Park!*

[@vegasviking86]

That live performance was amazing. There's was almost no difference between that version and the studio one!

[@cole110]

yeah i agree VIN..sounds like a Dimebag riff....or influence...thats my fav too"Leave the moment alone" part..

[@BLeeFAFO]

The arpeggiated figures in the main riff, Both guitarists are using Whammy pedals or some other harmonizer effect. You can set it to a separate interval or octave from the note you're playing. Dime did use a Whammy on a ton of Pantera and DamagePlan songs. He usually would set his two octaves up to hit extremely high notes a guitar can't orherwise reach. But these dudes are definitely using a harmonizer of some sort.

[@Ana198]

This is my fav song from this record, i love that riff, so simple but still kickass. Fucking amazing song

Saw this band live front row and they were phenomenal.

[@EvilMush81]

Man, I had tickets to see Gojira & Mastodon earlier this year here in NZ, but after an immense stuff up with both the bands' gear being shipped back to the States from Australia instead of across to lil old Auckland (thus causing a mad scramble around the city on the day for lending a bit of everything just so the show could go ahead) they ended up starting the show an hour early. Of course me and my mate had no idea until we turned up at the arena just as Gojira were finishing (and by all accounts they were off the chain!!!!!)..... 'tear Mastodon were immense themselves, but damn missing Gojira gutted me :( and no doubt will be at least a few years before theyake their way back down this way again...

[@rvfiasco]

This song hits the spot.

Took me a while to get in to Gojira. When I first heard about them, I was listening Stranded every day and trying their other songs every now and then but couldn't get in to them first.

[@alexandraionescu4121]

OMG! I think I've never agreed with Vin more then here: I have been in a relation where my boyfriend put me in the center of his whole life. Maybe for someone on the outside it may sound "romantic" but for me it was hell. No matter how much I loved him in the beginning by the end I just got so tired of always being the one "responsabile for his happiness". So the more he tried to keep me closer the more I pushed away. Now I see that it was a toxic relation and I feel so much more happy and free. Sorry for the long comment :P P.S.: Can't forget my daily request to revisit Avatar :D!

[@VinAndSori]

Such good points!!

[@EDsavant]

Alexandra Ionescu this song is about his dying mother vin is almost never near the meaning of the song and his wife is clueless about everything and most times he tries to talk about how much of a bad ass he thinks he is.

[@alexandraionescu4121]

@@EDsavant When you first listen to a song (without any background check beforehand) you're bound to give your own interpretation: music, like any other form of art is prone to that. Personally, I agree with Vin regarding the type of relationship he was describing and why it shouldn't be viewed as "romantic" but rather "toxic", because I've been in that situation. Regarding the real meaning of the song: yes, most (if not all) songs from Magma are about their mother dying, but you have to understand why someone (not knowing that fact) would assume a different meaning. If you look at the lyrics you can see why Vin assumed that's their meaning and I'm sure if you were to tell him the true meaning he will agree with you. I respect his opinion, I respect yours and the ultimate goal should just be to enjoy the music. Sorry for the long reply and thank you for yours.

Maha Kali by Dissection. This song (and album) is the goodbye letter of Jon Nödtveidt, the vocalist, before he commited suicide. The first and last live version is technically awesome.

[@gregorrus6495]

I think you hit the nail on the head with the him trying to fix himself. I can relate to that currently. Did some things I completely regret and I'm hoping that the other side will have the patience to not lock the door on me and give me a second chance. I feel the stranded in the night/cold could be the guilt and alienation that comes with it. It falls into context with the noise inside(overthinking due to guilt). And it's hard to silence those voices/thoughts. Great analysis though, thanks for things to think about! When you do the next Gojira, I would ask for L'enfant sauvage.

[@bobsciascia]

Gojira is FIRE! Esoteric Surgery is another great one. ((I'm pretty sure you guys already did Heaviest Matter and Flying Whales.))

[@VaultDestroyer]

The scariest thing in this world is loneliness. Dying alone. Having no one is a terrifying concept. Even if you're someone like me who spends alot of time by myself. I think thats why people sometimes put everything into relationships because they're scared of the other end.

Gojira - Global Warming [Live at the Silver Cord Studio May 2018] Allthough its 'Official' but then just listen private, its so good

[@SKULLEDBUICK]

Also, as someone pointed out, this song is about the Duplantiers' mother passing away. "A growing sickness in the heart Defective, lack of control The cure is somewhere in the silence But I'm crushed by the noise inside" -There's a literal sickness. His mother's condition is worsening & the only cure for her suffering is the silence. In other words: death. This is the noise that crushes him. "Don't lock the door on me You'd kill me, face down, dead Another part of me falls for you" -He's struggling hard to come to terms with this. Basically a "please, you can't leave us. I don't know what I'll do without you" type of thing. "Another day in the dark No, no Stranded in the night Stranded in the cold" -Kinda self-explanatory. How helpless he feels about the situation & how he'll feel once she's gone. "Leave the moment alone" -He finally comes to terms with everyrhing. With "the moment" probably being them at her side as she passes. This is my personal interpretation, at least. The entire Magma album, I'm pretty sure, is about them dealing with this.

[@SKULLEDBUICK]

Also, I'd recommend A Sight To Behold if you wanna hear them do some more of their unique, experimental-ish stuff.

[@chadgayken1934]

The vocals remind me of fear factor. Which are awesome.

[@ludvigtheholyblade259]

This riff also reminded me of Dimebag when I first heard it last year. You're right Vin. Gojira are fans of PanterA so it's a tribute. Which is interesting that they did that on the one song about their (singer and drummer) mother's passing. Cancer I believe ("A growing sickness in the heart, defective lack of control. The cure is somewhere in the silence, but I'm crushed by the noise inside". This song has very profound lyrics when you know what the song's about. Cheers guys. More Gojira (Ororborus, Where Dragons Dwell & Silvera - all live).
