Lyrics:
tell me what you see
in the after life
par-delà le ciel
par-delà le soleil
in all there is to learn
the sun is on our side
and though you’re on the run
you will survive
expanded to the state of light
the deepest corners of the world
gliding through the lowlands
and swimming all the oceans
walking through the silence
already made it through the night
there will be a new day
whenever the sun rises
you’re invisible, you’re in everything
tell me what you see
when you’re everywhere
tell me now
while you drift away
from all the plagues of this world
you’re put out of misery, giant monster
you won’t have to face it again
every step of the way gets you higher
all the voices trapped underneath the ground
let them all go in the sky
find the power lost underneath the ground
let it all blow in the sky
all the voices trapped in my head
let them all scream in the night
find the power lost underneath the ground
let it all blow in the sky

Excellent. They are rising among favorites... though it'll be hard to unseat my top 3. Glad to see I am among like-minded folks.

[@patrickschuerr4723]

Im 50 and been a metal head since I first heard Sabbath back in da 70's. I got my kids into the classics, and my kids get me into da newer stuff like Gojira, Mastodon, Messsugah, and Dillinger. I love them for it, but thats what family's do for each other. And my kids and I will rock out to Mastodon, Rush, Black Daliah, nwobhm bands, Death, Gojira, Neurosis, Electric Wizard, and what ever else.

It's awesome to see how they took their grieves about this tragic loss and made something very positive out of it. These two guys are amazing. Joe once said he had hard times thinking about singing some of the magma songs because of these personal things but when he does it's like Katharsis. You have to get it out and afterwards you kinda feel uplifted - and so it is, listening to this Music 😉

[@k10batmama]

this album changed my life. I was in and out of foster care,parents in prison, struggling with coping with such a shitty childhood. I am a MASSIVE GOJIRA FAN and this album was life changing. It taught me to embrace what's part of my past and to let it all go because that's the only way to move on. to love, to learn, and to be something for this one life we get. So many were critical.of this album, but mario and joes mother passed away and they wrote this. people need to keep that in perspective. its such a beautiful, moving tribute to their late mother

Mario is a unique drummer he has to be one of the best in the world, out of all genres. He plays with incredible timing, technicality, speed, doesn't play at one speed constantly, is creative, and above all, plays with emotion. A unique blend of everything. It's hard to imagine what Gojira would sound like with a different drummer...

[@lukmanmustafa]

I think so too. Every song has different drum unique, rich sound and distant from each song. I wonder how he even remembers and repeats the sound during live.

[@jollygrapefruit786]

I love how he does a lot of Shuffle type grooves in their songs, such a surprisingly great fit

"Tell me what you see In the afterlife " The mother of Goijira's Joe and Mario Duplantier mother passed away after a year-long battle fighting cancer, during the recording of Magma. Their loss inspired the direction that Gojira take on the album and this song finds Joe Duplantier talking to his late mom directly. "We were so inspired by how incredibly brave she was before she passed, she understood that there was no hope left and she embraced it. She gave us what she had to give, she took care of her material things, her bank accounts, her rent, all those details, in an attempt to detach herself from all worldly possessions. It was a lesson, I had an example from my Mum on how to leave this world with grace and I'll have that forever, it's a gift that she gave to me and my brother and my sister. We have that in us and it's an incredible gift; I hope my own death will be as peaceful and beautiful as hers … we shall see." The song's music video was directed by Alain Duplantier, the cousin of Joe and Mario Duplantier. It includes shots inside an empty house. Joe Duplantier explained: "One of the 'characters' featured in this film is 'Gayeres,' the family house where Mario and I grew up. We jammed to our first songs, started Gojira, and recorded most of our albums there."

[@Blackowl1977]

My mother has just passed away in a very similar way. This song haunts me since her departure. Hope I'll be as brave they had when I'll face the Death my self.

The song is amazing and the story about it is both sad and powerful. It is dedicated to Patricia Duplantier, Mario and Joe's mom. She passed away in 2015 and Joe wrote this song in her memory. The house was their and the fire has been a request from Patricia as a "funeral celebration", gathering friends and family. Mario Duplantier made an interview explaining it in a drum magazine (only in french sorry). Thank you Gojira for this song, I hope it helped you to recover.

[@GoatMee]

It's amazing how many bands there are with vocals, 2 guitars, a bass, and a drum set, yet this band comes and creates something so unique, so fresh, so open, not just this song, the whole repertoire ... Gojira will go down in history as one of the Greats, as a band which established their own style and released albums with unmistakable identity. They totally own the scene and following their progress is pure enjoyment, just awesome. Hats off.

These guys are so classy compared to pretty much every other metal band; they aren't covered in terrible tattoos, they don't wear embarrassing death metal shirts to try and earn scene cred, and they don't incorporate the latest trends into their music...they just keep evolving a sound that they pioneered themselves. It makes me happy to think the Duplantier brothers still have each other when going through one of the worst losses a family can suffer, and that they can turn that into incredible music to share with the world. Amazing cinematography and overall just a beautiful video.

[@psycold]

That's why I said they aren't covered in 'terrible' tattoos. I think some tattoos can have meaning and look pretty good, but overall they have become a fad and it's just my opinion but most of the time they just end up making people look worse.

[@ArtOfRuin981]

+danzigking youre only cool if you have a tattoo nowadays...therefore it is even cooler not to have them

[@tjmess00]

They're very much a rarity in metal. They're very proud of the unique sound they've created and have never been concerned with being "heavy enough" for the elitists. Their music is real, emotional and they seem to keep finding ways to outdo themselves. Not to mention the fact that they're simply brilliant musicians and immensely talented

[@ShanQueefus]

+danzigking tatoos are cliche

[@INDOMINION]

I lost my mother on June 17th 2024. She suffered two hemorrhagic strokes. The first one paralyzed her right side but she was still herself. The second one happened two days short of a year later at 363 days after the first one. That one wiped away everything. It seemed as if her brain was reformatted. She couldn't remember anything but could say one or two words. She lived on a peg feeding tube for 10 years. Unable to taste food or drink. She kept smiling throughout Covid and could say I love you and where are you? through video chats. She cheated death twice more. I spent Christmas with her in ICU at the end of 2023. When she recovered, they talked me into restarting her peg feeding and as soon as I consented, the oxygen machine and lamp flickered off for about a second. No other lights in the room changed. Just that AC receptacle. The nurse and I looked at each other and both said what was that? at the exact same time. My mom stopped tolerating the feeds mid May of 2024. I had to make the terrible decision to discontinue the life support. She made it nearly a month and her battle ended on June 17th at around 9am. She made fools of at least 4 different doctors that told me she wouldn't survive 24 hours after her strokes. She was the strongest person I've ever known. Rest in Peace Angie. I will cherish your memory and love you forever 🕯🪽🤍 Fly Free into Eternity

The DuPlantier's lost their mom over the past year----while working on Magma. As may or may not have been commented previously this video is about this loss. I saw this for the first time this morning on my way to work. I have been a Gojira freak since 2011 and one of the many things they live is integrity to one's emotional as well as physical lives. Emotional honesty is where I'm at now in my mid-40s. Its a necessity especially if you see your loved ones dying around you way too early. So, I am watching this on my device and listening on my car stereo. My car is warmed up, I just cant take my eyes off the cinematography. It is stellar. I realized at 2:50 I am caving internally. I have not cried since long before my MY mom died 3 years ago. I haven't dealt with it yet. I had to bury her and be the man so no emotions. Dad too is dead. So, at 4:00 I see the look on Joe's face and I recognize it as I have seen it on me many times. The water works started and I had no control. Snot bubbles, weird high pitched moans from god knows where in my gut. It started to come out and I was unable to worry about how I looked to the neighbor getting in her car, the kids walking by. My own sense of what is acceptable. I let go. Gojira has this affect. To all of you who fear losing your Metal flavor of the week, grow up and let their music has its way with you. These guys are for real.

[@MrTBONESTEAK]

So true! That's why I watch the video so often. The entire song is already fairly intense, but just seeing his face when he is screaming into the camera adds so much to it. That's him expressing the overwhelming sadness and that deeply rooted feeling in your gut when you are confronted with things that beat you down. Thanks for sharing! It's great to read others sharing my love for this music. It's something I can't seem to share with anyone in my circle of friends or family. The prejudice against this type of music is still miles high where I live and hardly anyone is prepared to meet it with open eyes and an open mind. Take care!

Man, this is exactly my feeling at that time. I see my parents on Sunday for my 46 birthday and I feel lucky for this. ❤️

[@alemutasa6189]

This song is so personal, yet so relatable. I personally lost my granfather to cancer, my first and only true mentor, but I suppose most of us experienced cancer and the loss of a close one due to it. The lyrics of this song apply perfectly to all of us. It's a shame they probably never play it live

[@stevesack284]

I'm late to the Gojira party, been a fan for months verses year but man, I'm catching up fast. One of the best bands around right now. My new mission is to see them live, somewhere, sometime.

[@guillaumeravereau8851]

Same for me bro. I'm from France 🇨🇵, pretty near of where they're from and I didn't know them, it sounds crazy as I listen metal ... 🤦🏻‍♂️. But I'm catched now. Fortitude is a great album, but Magma is a masterpiece💎. I never felt that much emotional with a metal album before Magma. And I'm lucky enough to see them live in February 2022 in Bordeaux. Hope you will too. Greetings from France 😀

[@stevesack284]

@@guillaumeravereau8851 Magma is now on my top 10 favorite albums of all time. The feelings I get from that album begin the second the first song begins. It's an amazing listen.

I really love the spiritual side of Gojira when they write their songs. It makes you feel alive

[@anthonyvenedicto518]

R.I.P. Patricia Rosa. We all love you. You and your husband did an amazing job raising these 2 brothers: a very melodic and caring vocalist, and a kickass yet beautifully amazing drummer who are both now at the top of the European metal scene making you proud in heaven.

[@MetalxMasters]

Wonder how they manage to write such simple, but powerful song structures? These guys are geniuses....I wish I had a quarter of their skills.

[@buckfuttler2877]

simply one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever made. thanks you, fellas.

[@Fuzzysnuggleduck]

As an agnostic, and someone who lost my mother, much before our time; I appreciate this. As much Gojira music. I hold artefacts made by humans hands hundreds or even thousands of years before I was born and I wonder about all this. Not spiritual or purely intellectual, but the human experience of everyone that traverses life. Human relationships are important even though they are fleeting.

[@zoeyrat]

There isn't one song that gives me chills like this does. Not one. Gojira is the most incredible band I've heard and will remain that way. Every album is a masterpiece.

[@19ThreeLions97]

i didn't expect this a bit 'softish' Gojira album to be my favourite release of this very productive year for metal. Very good album, masterpiece song.

[@rexahdar4199]

This song is a masterpiece. Greatness.

[@vigilante351]

I was asked many months ago what my fav Gojira album was, I have loved them all, they are literally all 10/10... But Magma was an 11... It has the feeling of loss, the feeling of building, the feeling of a new journey... It still has that now...

[@mpk33]

When I dissociate, this song takes me deep into darkened forests during blue hour where I connect with all the sentient beings past & present. They welcome me and comfort me, just like this song does. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Gojira. This album is something incredibly special.

[@jackorion482]

Tell me what you see, In the after-life Par-delà le ciel Par-delà le soleil In all there is to learn The sun is on our side And though you're on the run You will survive… Expanded to the state of light The deepest corners of the world Gliding through the lowlands And swimming all the oceans Walking through the silence Already made it through the night There will be a new day Whenever the sun rises You're invisible, you're in everything Tell me what you see Tell me you're everywhere Tell me now… While you drift away, From all the plagues of this world You're put out of misery, giant monster… You won't have to face it again Every step of the way gets you higher… All the voices trapped underneath the ground Let them all go in the sky! Find the power lost underneath the ground Let it all blow in the sky! All the voices trapped in my head Let them all scream in the night! Find the power lost underneath the ground Let it all blow in the sky!

The song being about the death of their mother, the video being directed by their cousin and shot on location of their childhood home. I dont think you'll ever find a more personal and heartfelt music video..ever. Beautiful.

[@whydontyouremember]

I like to think the song is their way of sending a heartfelt goodbye across the universe to their mother's spirit.

[@biocountry4519]

Lyndon Hamer I think thats a very eloquent way of looking at it.

[@pachamama1158]

One of the best metal bands EVER! No limit to these guys' creativity!

[@vincentbedard4267]

This song never ceases to amaze me with how beautiful and mystic it is. One of Gojira's best work imo.

[@claudiamarianidamato9499]

I agree

[@rapture1990]

Considering the meaning and reason the song was written, I can really appreciate the visual effects of the two brothers together toward the end of the song.

[@MaskedRiderChris]

This is arguably my favorite Gojira song, right here. What I love the most is the amount of tension building throughout the first half of the song that is taken to just the right level, then the gears shift at the halfway point, set it up...and then the BOMB DROPS and that tension is released and how. I *love* that! The depth and emotional resonance in this one is profound and the more you listen, the more you notice the layers in the vocals, with the well placed screams here and there underlining key parts of the lyrics. This makes me think of my late grandmother, who was the mother I never had in a variety of ways, and how I felt when she passed in 1992, and how I miss her to this day. Great work, Messrs., great work!

[@SuperAzza14]

Great analysis. It's definitely top 3 Gojira songs for me.

[@rakadungdung]

A really special song. It's the only Gojira song I can think of where Joe alternates his tones when doing his rough vocals, and it's really quite beautiful.

[@GrimJackal]

Gojira is as good as they've ever been. This album is a triumph.

[@brianbatey9281]

My Brother died, and this is the song that connects us. I love this song.

[@smokejc]

"Tell me what you see / when you're everywhere" is amazing.

[@QueenLiAnn]

This video is one of the best music videos I have ever seen. It fits the song so good and gives it more meaning than it already has.

[@hocuspocus3256]

I wish i could meet these guys and just say thank you for the music they've written, that pulled me up out of mud in life, and are still there to remind that "I am here to continue after all I have been through." One important thing I've learned from their music is that, at the end of the day, living and dying are one in the same.

[@janperna1979]

Great! Hopefully they can record more songs like these in the future. I love the melancholic style and the accoustic outro.

[@gator4life311]

My husband and I got the opportunity to meet the guys last Sunday at Welcome To Rockville. We weren't even going to attend because I've had extremely bad anxiety since my oldest brother took his life on March 17th. But I just knew I had to go. I needed this experience despite what my silly brain was telling me. I told them how much this song has helped me cope with his passing. Joe took my hand with both of his and expressed his condolences. It meant the world to me. These guys and their music make me feel connected to the universe somehow. I'm forever grateful. Thank you so much.

[@heatherhansen8854]

Katie Meadows I am sorry for your loss. It's good that you were able to get out and how cool that you met the band! Beautiful song......

[@camillajefferson386]

Maybe my favourite song on Magma, but I only just saw there was a video. Love that the actress from Vacuity came back, love it even more that I just happened to watch that video right before this one! Cathartic. That beat in the intro, the power in the outro; phenomenal track.

I just heard magma and fortitude these past few days and I am literally addicted!!!... 😭 The spiritual and life/death themes Are things i obsess a lot over on the daily in my mind..

this whole album really grew on me. i remember first seeing this video when initially released and i was like 'ok' but it took me 5 years to realize how a masterpiece this really is

I love the few lines in French, a kind of reminder of where they come from. I am French and I ma soooo proud of these guys!

I just discovered these guys about a month ago. I'm slowly going through their catalogue, and all I have to say is that if they keep this up, no one else may matter.

Few months ago while I was listening to this song and watching the video I started to cry so hard cause It really touched my nerves, I would never imagine at that time that I would lose a beloved one.

@@Gravityys As someone whose part of the family are sailors I have been in that part of France quite a few times. And I can say that even if the photography/lighting here make it look more beautiful than it is, it's still close to how it really looks. The sunsets are really that beautiful and there are very dense forests with the Pyrénées mountains not too far. The air is really pure and it's the best place to bring your friends or children. These guys must have had a very happy childhood.

[@OHWA-AH-AH-AH]

Such an underrated song...One of my favorites from Magma.

[@JamesBurwellActual]

This song, listening closely to the lyrics literally brought tears to my eyes, thinking about the Brothers Duplantier and what they've been through, talking about where they grew up, and necessarily bringing up memories of loss.

[@the48thvain]

I love how Christian and Jean Michel are still in the music video. For a song being an emotional tribute to Joe and Mario's mom and the place they grew up, for their two other bandmates to be there playing and standing around the bonfire shows us they despite them not being blood-related, they are just as much brothers to the Duplantiers as Joe and Mario are to each other.

[@HelloHumanIAlsoAmHuman]

Gojira and Parkway Drive are the most down-to-earth metal bands IMO, it always feels like they are gonna walk off the front of the stage and have a beer with you after the show.
