Gojira is one of the best bands I’ve ever seen live.

[@vapoe]

Fact

[@mx3graphx114]

Agreed. My friend got me to go see them live. I had never heard of them before but I had heard of deftones so I went. I’ve always like heavy music seen all my favorites live, but this band was on another level the energy was unreal. No performance I’ve seen has come close!

[@chrismelvin1583]

One of the best bands period. Not my personal favorite, but they are definitely up there with Lamb of God.

[@Arawadewiseman]

Same, I’ve seen a lot of great concerts but Gojira was amazing live.

[@mot_wadd3441]

Amazonia live, the feels man the feels

[@jrqberry]

6:25 ...."ok this band is GREAT" YES!!!!!

[@Ghostweaver]

YES! Dude, my 2 favorite bands are Gojira and Opeth and you've hit both of them recently. Right on!

[@keithjones5309]

I'm a big fan of Flying Whales by them, it's very atmospheric. That whole album (From Mars to Sirius) is great. Of course, so is this one (L'Enfant Sauvage), as is Magma, and Fortitude, and....well, all of them. Try out "Stranded", "Flying Whales", "Amazonia".

[@tor2886]

Gojira is fantastic, seen them live a few times.

[@davidlang4848]

Gojira Oroborus live at Eurockéennes 2009 is a must

[@TheCrimsonOne508]

Gojira is as important to heavy music today as Metallica was in the 80s and early 90s. They’re absolutely unbelievable.

[@puppetmaster8551]

Definitely not but they are an important metal band in this day an age. Metallica is easily one of the most important metal bands ever, Gojira is not that even if they kickass and are important today.

[@NEIL-CURCIO]

Gojira are simply incredible

[@soyuz1974]

Check out “Heaviest matter in the universe”

[@Vinc.M]

You pronounce the J from Gojira as a normal J. It's the japanese pronounciation of "Godzilla", it was they're early name but it's a brand so they had to change and they chose Gojira (you can find some early EP on youtube from the period they were named Godzilla btw). Hope i teached u something ahah

[@stefen-emilpedersen9859]

[@dustinvrooman5793]

Thats awsome that you reviewed gojira, le ́efant sauvage I feel is a better example but still awsome 😀

[@Degradation11]

Listen to Oroborus. Mario IS the best drummer in the world. I saw them last year. Best concert I’ve been to

[@kennyrosenyc]

Gojira is pronounced 'Go-Jee-ra'. It's the original name of 'Godzilla'. The 'Godzilla' name came about because Americans wanted to make fun of Japanese people after WWII. If you think about it 'Gojira' is how a stereotypical Japanese person would say 'Godzilla'. Good drummer, but not the best for me. My vote stands firm with Billy Martin (of Medeski, Martin and Wood), that guy sounds like 2 drummers playing 2 different songs at once. Check out 'The Lover' or 'Chubb Sub' for some of the sickest drumming ever. Or better still, the entire album 'Friday Afternoon In The Universe', the guy is nuts. They totally stole the entire Grateful Dead audience.

[@Pupinski711]

this guys is kind of a goof ball. doesnt really add much to the video at all.

[@SamMoscinski]

Love that you’re bringing this band to a different audience than normal. Gojira have been one of my favorites for almost 6 years now, truly masters of their craft.

[@Guitargate]

Thx Sam!

[@fatsuperfly]

I agree, it is a style, you love it or hate, but cool that ppl are grabbing to it, and explain why they like some stuff. You can be a guitar player, and it may not be your style, but they explain why it can work.

[@thompson924]

heaviest matter of the universe would be nuts reaction on this channel

[@wllulu]

I agree

[@UseTheBoost3D]

Gojira has consistently been my favorite band since I saw them open for Metallica in 2009. Never found any other band that comes close to their sound. It's heavy, groovy, and spacey. A lot of their music also carries a great message, mostly environmental. I never miss em when they come to town.

[@paulatreides1354]

damn you saw them in their peak meaning 2009 , every performances is incredible but especially in 2009 , joe's voice that year was awesome

[@NATE1717BALLIN]

You should Check out Fit For A Autopsy

[@wllulu]

I saw them in 2016 and it's been my favourite band since then

[@moonman9j9]

Poor Metallica. Poor Lars lmfao

[@GuniShushev]

You have GOT to check out Meshuggah then :) Gojira and Meshuggah are like a match made in heaven.

[@Pupinski711]

Vocals being okay???? They are hella good especially in that era and super raw

[@jez_77]

Joe's vocals are actually extremely unique, since he mixes clean voice with growl. There's like a very audible clean tone underneath his very brutal, distorted growl/scream. Its not only really difficult but nobody does this the way that Joe does. Thats what makes his singing so good and original

[@henryatkinson8870]

exactly what i was thinking

[@henryatkinson8870]

@@jez_77no other band has that like of sound that gojira has

[@TheSgbarter]

First time hearing Gojira and I am hooked! Love the funky style and arrangements. Just spent the last 3 hours listening to a couple of their live performances on YT.

[@paulatreides1354]

great isn't it ? :)

[@derekk8523]

Live gojira is the best

[@rockyowitz]

Would recommend Toxic Garbage Island at Hellfest 2016. The ending line of "plastic, bag in the sea" while people mosh is phenomenal

[@tacticalteager7920]

Watch Red Rocks.

[@ericcosta92]

Gojira is the one band i believe EVERYONE should experience live at least once in their life. Seeing them live is just a visceral, spiritual experience. Theres just something about them.

[@Arithekiller]

Seen them for the first time 2 weeks ago and they were indeed incredible live, and they played this song towards the end of the set so I can now die in peace

[@boonerichardson1639]

I look forward to finding out for myself in a few weeks!

[@SparksofHell]

Several tries before have fallen through. Have tickets for Gojira, Mastodon and Lorna Shore in August. Hopefully it works out this time.

[@hunnergaskins8513]

Metal Michael on this fine Friday. Never heard of Gojira until I saw them open for Lamb of God and Trivium. The opening riff was engraved in my brain and they’ve been one of my favorites ever since.

[@franciscosantos9753]

[@SrgntSprnkls77]

​@@tevwool Oroborus maybe? I'm also curios

[@sevopie]

@@SrgntSprnkls77 the LoG + Trivium tour was From Mars to Sirius days before Oroborus was released, my guess would be The Heaviest Matter of the Universe. Sadly, I was still in line to get in when I went to this tour, so I don't know what they played first on that night.

[@brotherlyhippo]

@@tevwool research done. Ocean planet im pretty positive

[@sreneethomas]

Gojira has so many bangers!! With a hugely diverse sound album to album, even song to song. You MUST dig into Gojira!! This is a great song, but not their best…keep going with Gojira. They are amazing

[@RalphBellairs]

These guys are all phenomenal, but Jean-Michel is the most under-rated bass player in metal imho.

[@drsmainemusic]

Gojira is such an incredible band. The riffs, the melodies, the brutality, the messages. Brilliance.

[@Tritoness]

Just like we shouldn’t sleep on EVH amps, don’t sleep on Gojira! U know, i love everything about them, their evolution, their sound, their story… And Mario does not use triggers. He’s been named best metal drummer couple of times for a reason. He’s just so musical..

[@SrgntSprnkls77]

mario uses triggers on his bass drums, he said so in an interview years ago. doesnt take away from his skill, triggers are the norm in modern metal

[@TheKerrby]

For bigger venues he definitely uses triggers.

[@pettisUSA]

I normally don’t listen to metal but I got a lot out of this lesson. Videos like this don’t have to be perfect. Just instructive.

[@Lovell93]

Metal is where you will find some of the best guitar playing you've ever seen! Not that there aren't fantastic guitarists in other genres, it's just metal guitarists tend to do some of the craziest stuff!

[@ben99687]

I’ve never heard more emotion put into a scream than when he sings “the gift… of GUIIIIIIILT” at 9:15. Goosebumps every time.

one of the best metal band of the last decades , too bad they got very famous just now , they're not shredders or anything like that ,but they have a style that's their own ,if you want more tapping check out gojira , oroborus live eurockeenne 2009..no triggers by the way

[@sunriseshell]

This is the word "Godzilla" in anglicized Japanese.

[@zeppleymusic6793]

Finally got to see Gojira live with Deftones last year. My favorite metal band! Amazing live band! Great video.

[@thomase4464]

I discovered Gojira about two years ago and I’m so happy I did! Learning all their songs now. Next from Gojira you should check out Pray (Live at red rocks). Amazing performance, this is the song im struggling with now, I´m up to 75% speed on this one, its a tough one :)

[@fahrdaris778]

Absolutely wicked you're checking them out. It's pronounce Go-jee-rah btw. :) As for the boys, Mario is clean, timed, and seemingly effortless perfection on drums. Joe brought some different sounds to guitar, and the band as a whole brought; in my view; a new genre, or at least unique in their genre. The Duplantier brothers are truly just musical geniuses. Phenomenal bassist as well. I'll be seeing them in Montreal in August. Meet & Greet. Can not freakin' wait! \m/

[@mitchweiner]

I’ve never been a fan of metal vocals like this but the music is incredibly tight!

[@nuthinspeshal2603]

Yes I've been hoping you'd do some Gojira these guys are awesome I saw them in Sacramento at the aftershock festival and I didn't really know who they were but I've been a fan since that day they are amazing live. Love this song 🤘

[@W4Rx1Sx0V3R]

No matter the instrument you play, whether its drums, guitar or bass, gojira songs are so hard to play stamina wise, literally the perfect band to play along to improve your stamina lol

[@Axter6]

I’d say it’s more of a workout plan for drummers 😂

yeah backbone is a wrist killer for guitarist xd but once you've done it it's a great exercices

[@justinmillikan2258]

ART. OF. DYING. Actually, this would primarily be for the drumming, though the outro is great. If you want to hear the whole band in their best light, go for Amazonia, or Born For One Thing

[@asmodeo111]

Man, this guys make a guitar sound like a whale… and every one of their albums drops unique sounds & rhytms Fantastic band!!

[@green3452345]

Viking music from french dudes name a better combo

[@mastod0n1]

This was their closing song when I saw them last month. I had been on my feet all day at work and then drove an hour and a half to the venue and stood on my feet for another 4 hours from when doors opened to when Gojira took the stage. My legs and feet were hurting, I had been awake for almost 18 hours by the time they started but I forgot about all of that. Such a great live band.

[@jonnenne]

Born in winter is my favorite. I personally adore Gojiras intros but I am not super fond of their non-melodic parts

[@mikesaker9378]

Born in winter also my favorite! Beautiful riff

[@athmaid]

One of the most beautiful metal songs ever written imho

[@lkjh467]

Backbone!! Genius song from a few years ago. I'm pretty new to Gojira too, and am still exploring, but haven't been this excited by a heavy band for years. They are absolutely the real thing.

[@paulatreides1354]

few years ..17 years man ..we're getting old xd

[@TheVadrigar]

And that, my friend, is the Gojira slide. Gojira actually has a song where they only use Telecasters. It's from their youth, but they recently recorded a live version from their studio, it's on YT- "Inferno Live"

[@revertingtonothing985]

joe is still using basically exclusively tele types at least, although I believe charvel brand?

[@adriancole9681]

Joe is a great singer. His harsh vocals are so emotive and melodic. Dude that requested this is the silliest goose in the pond. Also Mario is a fantastic drummer but definitely not the best in the world.

[@hemmygrant]

GREATTTTTTT band, thanks for this Michael! I strongly disagree, some of the best vocals in metal, awesome inflection and emotion. singer and drummer are brothers like the pantera boys.

[@jesse6779]

I fucking love Joe's vocals, they're just so fucking good to my ears

[@felipecampos3045]

gojia is the best metal band right now, chek out their live at red rocks

[@vinq8621]

Hey Mr Palmisano! Gojira has a song called ‘Art of Dying’. George Harrison also has a song called ‘Art of Dying’. Could you take a listen to the George track and maybe if you like it could you do a break down? It’s got some nice arrangement and I just can’t figure out some of the stuff George/Clapton are doing in the background but I can always focus on your lessons!

[@perpetualbystander4516]

The intro reminds me of Iron Maiden's "Flash Of The Blade".

[@planetgame779]

just put the guitar down and watch the video, hearing you play the guitar is quite annoying

Gojira is easily one of my favorite bands. Michael if you're ever bored, check out Blind Guardian. They're a power metal band from Germany that does a lot of Lord of the Ring lyric/themed songs/albums. Both guitarists grew up being classically trained and it shows through their guitar playing. Mordred's Song is probably a good start. Some acoustic mixed in.

Gojira... the original pronunciation of the Americanized version, Godzilla. "In English, Godzilla is said as, well, "Godzilla." But in Japanese, it's said (and written) different: "Gojira" (ゴジラ). According to actor Ken Watanable. :) Kind of like a soft 'zh' sound for the J. [if no one has said it yet. LOL]

Gojira is pronounced GOH-ZEE-YAH. It's the Japanese name for Godzilla. It's basically pronounced the same in the U.S., but the double L's are replaced by a "Y".

[@barbados1267]

MARIO DUPLANTIER uses hybrid triggering on his bass drums so their half triggered and half acoustic so he can tighten up the overtones and stuff and Mario loves acoustic sounds so nothing else is triggered his snare his toms and his symbols no triggers without triggers the bassdrums would sound a little mushy it’s like putting a Guitar distortion pedal on your guitar it helps out the distortion but that’s the only reason why he has hybrid triggering their first 2001 album terra incognita they were completely acoustic but in their next album the Link btw the best the link songs are Rememberance, Embrace the world, and Death of me that album Mario stepped his double bass game up and blast beats so ge started using triggers

[@Justin_Dykes]

Definitely not my cup of tea, but still respect it....I am not a huge fan of the "non understandable tongue in a blender" bands......with that being said the guitar approach in this song was very unique and peaked my interest......the drummer is insanely good

[@johnny141093]

I was gonna say it's much easier in Drop C lol they either use that, standard D (most of their songs) or a weird C minor open I think?

[@orangeunderscore]

Kicks are triggered, at least on current tours, confirmed by the drummer himself. He is playing every note though, he’s got some insane endurance during other double kick songs.

[@jameshubbardr]

The vocals only being ok is an insane take from the original guy
