Hi Guys, It's huge to see that today because I grew up with the guys in the band (Mario, Joe, Christian and Jean-Michel) when we were only 15 or 16, we all lived in the south-west of France in the early 90s. At that time we had our respective metal bands, they were already focused on Death-Metal while my band was more in the Groove-Metal style. A little anecdote, at the time, they were not called Gojira but Godzilla. this album was recorded and produced in France in the Basque country in a small studio. We often met on the different small festivals, rock springboard and concerts that they had in our countryside where nothing ever happened. They came from the town of Ondres on the border of the Basque Country and the Landes, and we came from Mimizan, a seaside village on the Atlantic Ocean but situated further north in the middle of nowhere in the department of the Landes. Today they became enormous stars but at the time, we were just pimply teenagers with a passion for metal music going to school during the week and playing in small concerts on the weekends. Since then, we've lost sight of each other, I live abroad and I've chosen another professional career path (even if I'm still a metal drummer .. just for the fun of jamming), and to see you today analyzing their music is a sweet mix between stupefaction (positive) and proud to have grown and evolved with them when we were younger. In our native Southwest it is an immense pride to see his guys as nice in life as talented on stage being seen and heard around the world. I can assure you that they left from nothing, because I was there, at the beginning it was only a small metal band that played on weekends in concerts where there were not more than ten people sometimes in the room. they climbed the notoriety ladder one by one only by the sweat of their perseverance and their work. It's really great to see them being analyzed from the U.S.A. Good job dudes and thank you for them.

If you haven't seen Gojira live, I highly recommend it. As someone who grew up on Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica, Gojira is a breath of fresh air. I saw them at a a festival so they only played 45 minutes. It began with Mario casually strolling out to his drum kit and playing solo for a bit. Then the rest of the band joined in. It was amazing to witness. Joe is an incredible vocalist. I cannot say enough about Gojira. I eagerly await their next tour.

[@Tniedrich]

I've been a metal head my whole life so I have the ear and taste for the growling and yelling, but I also understand that the screaming factor in metal is the biggest contributing reason for people being turned off of metal, especially the good and heavy stuff. But I feel that Gojiras vocals, although still a scream/growl, is done is such a way that speaks to most listeners immediately as something unique, authentic and powerful. He's not screaming to sound nasty or heavy, there is so ego or image; he's screaming as a man, as a human, and when we hear that voice, along with songs like these, I think that it speaks to you on a primal level which is why so many Gojira fans feel a 'spiritual' appeal to the music and become life long fans. Awesome vid guys!

[@fabarbuck]

To me Gojira is the first band to do 'positive' metal. There's primal energy in their music, but instead of rage or anger, it is more evocative of the ocean or something.

[@cheesecracker9884]

@@fabarbuck Death had some great philosophical lyrics in their later albums and they inspired Gojira too

[@leerobbo92]

Well said. There are a few bands that do it well IMO: Dark Tranquility, Insomnium, Amorphis, and to a lesser extent Carcass immediately come to mind. I think the trick is, even though they're growling, you can hear everything they say: it's well enunciated, and it's powerful rather than breathy.

Congrats on having the best reaction channel out there! Since Opeth pretty much invented progressive / melodic death metal, you should react to them also. I highly Recommend The Drappery Falls from Blackwater Park released in 2001. Nothing sounded like it. That album changed metal forever.

[@Gigan-tp5wi]

I was ready to clean up Godzilla, too. Still salty about the whole situation.

[@halesentertainment2334]

Well I hope you have a most triumphant return in the future.

[@Gigan-tp5wi]

I hope so too.

[@marlonrodriguez9107]

That whole album is fucking sick

[@hdanish]

Also suggesting to try OPETH!

[@ontrackbyallancunhafuligem6921]

Sehs88 Yeah ..... Deliverance \m/

[@steverobertson3980]

AMEN BROTHER!!! Opeth Baying Of the Hounds or Demon of the Fall

[@Crusader982]

For real would love to see something Blackwater Park era. The Leper Affinity or Bleak

[@joepope5793]

This and the Holy Wars video are like my ultimate comfort videos. I come back to this every so often when i need a pick me up. You guys are and have always been so genuine.

[@Isabellll__]

Please do Gojira- The gift of guilt

[@tylawton3643]

Benedicte Isabel YES PLEASE!!!

[@boggizzle]

Yes! And do this live version, it is simply amazing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKPJo2yqa6uoirc

[@HectorReyes-lm7xp]

My fav Gojira song!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jesswise8680]

Agreed! Great song !

[@jameswhitbread574]

Best Gojira song ever!!

[@mikebrowning88]

Gojira exists on a different wave length. They are beyond unique. You nailed the quality of the growling. What sets gojira aside in terms of screaming is that it sounds effortless in their music. And every word is coherent and understandable. I adore them. SO GLAD YOU GUYS DO TOO! AWESOME VID LIV!

[@nickocosmic666]

This channel is underrated. An outsiders perspective on metal in general is refreshing and fascinating. You guys got me excited to re-experience bands that I haven’t listened to in years. Progressive metal is such a dynamic branch, with so many talented artists throwing their unique styles into the mix, you never get bored. My recommendation for your next incursion into this sub genre would have to be Periphery - Insomnia.

[@Dejiek]

Or "Have a Blast" that'd be fun watching them react to.

[@hectorbalderas4141]

I second that

[@Curtin-mf3xy]

Gojira’s singer is brutal, but he still sings. Even his heaviest growls are in key, with rhythm and melody. Gift of Guilt live in London showcases his vocal greatness.

[@bryan_turner]

Gojira is a PHENOMENAL band! I can't wait for the opportunity to see them perform live.

[@MGDC37]

That chugging riff is so sick haha. PANTERA- DOMINATION LIVE IN MOSCOW!!

[@jameswhitbread574]

Why does everyone think that is so amazing? It’s iconic but it isn’t anything special.

[@timb5239]

Amazing reaction to an amazing song, huge respect guys!!! "Gojira: Flying Whales" is a must listen!!!

[@sophisticated_metalhead9806]

Your reaction to Stranded is what brought me to your channel but I have watched this reaction right here a dozen times now...so glad I found your channel and got on your Patreon as soon as you started it. Love you guys ♥♥♥

[@darthmorbous]

Pretty much my reaction when I first listened to this song... And it was LIVE... Wtf this band live is THE. BEST.

[@kurzleg]

Appreciate you two being candidly enthusiastic about Gojira because sometimes I take them for granted. You guys helped me re-remember that/why Gojira is unique.

[@ecosuite2014]

kurzleg dude. spot on. I liked them for a while, not a a hardcore fan but these guys review and the stranded review made me re visit and now a true fanatic. Strange how affirmation can work.

[@campar1043]

I usually hate reaction videos but you two guys definitely know your music. You dissect it and understand it very well and as someone who loves and makes hiphop and also delves into metal once in a while, THIS FREE THINKER I SALUTES YOU

[@Lambag-Daniel]

Cam Par fucking love it!

[@metosoreru]

I revisit this video frequently, it feels good to headbang with you guys!! You’re very genuine and rewatching this video makes me feel like I’m listening to the song for the first time again, or like I’m watching it with some good friends. Thank you!!

[@charliesusterich8744]

Whenever I need a smile I watch this reaction video. Y'all are awesome! I had the same reaction and I've listened to metal for about 22 years. Hails, guys!

[@serumoneonefour]

Mastodon - Oblivion You need it!

[@chuckmmci]

Jacob Eitniear yes

[@jesot]

Yeah, that one's pretty much a must-listen for people checking out metal.

[@baguetteboi1065]

ITS TIME TO BRING THE WHALES!!!!!

[@DowntunedDevil]

IVE GOT TO FIND THE WHHHAAAAAALLLLLEEEEEESSSSS

[@grahamjones2983]

Loving watching you guys become metal fans and keeping an open mind. People get turned off by the growls and screaming and fail to recognize these guys for their raw skill. Losing a gallon of water weight in sweat every night onstage killin it

[@loochan-o7174]

I keep coming back to this reaction because it makes me enjoy this masterpiece even more. Those amazed faces are priceless... They are going crazy even before the "Go" 😆❤️

[@A7XfoREVer531]

You don’t need to ask “‘metal elitists” if Gojira is good. Everyone respects them even if it’s not their style of music. They’re fucking phenomenal

[@tom0176devo]

Pantera - Domination!!

[@frankvillatoro2331]

the LIVE version! Some of the best live and raw metal ever captured on video!!!

[@GeomorgusNihili]

I second this.

[@ImmortalMadwolf]

Fuck yeah

[@YannickTMessiah]

I can't believe they got this as their second song. I can't believe that they wanted something heavy and went straight into THIS. Way too good to be possible hahah

[@viceisms16]

Nothing but smiles from mouth to ear. So awesome to see peeps jam so hard. The "gol-lee!" @ 6:50 gets me every time.

[@mariodlc21]

Mastodon - Blood and Thunder!!!!

[@Docthecowboyoperator]

Mario De La Cruz holy crap yes. Do it!

[@LegiTTxBoss]

This

[@jbasti227]

Mario De La Cruz Yeeees!

[@drexy1300]

Mastodon would be a good choice for them. Blood and Thunder would scratch the itch for interesting lyrics. I'm guessing Oblivion or newer stuff George and Ryan would enjoy overall more.

[@mariodlc21]

Deus Rex in previous videos I requested Oblivion and Toe to Toes for the reasons you mention, but i dont know man, this reaction changed my perception, apparently they are really into the groove and fast paced drumming. I also thought that they would only like clean vocals, but they dont seem to mind as long as it fits the feel of the instrumentation. Mastodon has so many and diverse good songs that is hard to predict what would they like, i just hope they dig this one so they can react to them again, maybe to a more melodic song.

[@Grymtydeify]

>Listens to intro >immense grin >"Yeah" 😂 subscribed

[@jctheii]

Dude yes 😂

[@markjones-rc1nm]

ive watched these Gojira vids so many times!! i love your reactions...

[@the0okami2008]

New at the channel but i love how you Love bands like Gojira and Tool as much as i DO, i listen them since my 16 years old, i'm now 36 and still feel like you do every time

[@theguy6941]

I’m broken by pantera

[@NickAcker]

Haha what an awesome video. Glad you guys are on the Gojira grind. Been a metal fan most of my life and honestly Gojira and other progressive metal bands are doing something incredible with their music. The beauty of prog metal is that every band is so different while still in the same genre. Some artists are more jazz influenced or others come from basic rock with strange time signatures thrown in there. I'm no expert on it but its really good for getting perspective on genres you may not actively listen to as well as giving a more open mind to said genres. If I were to recommend a song it would be the song "687 Days" by the artist "David Maxim Micic". It's instrumental but the video is brilliant and shows how creative the writing process is and also how other elements such as electronic music can fit in to metal and rock.

[@madmonkeycycling9098]

It's also one of the best live bands you can witness. They are as heavy, if not even heavier than on the albums and Gojira is tight as F

[@denverdon58]

Nick, if they do a David Maxim Micic song the next thing you know, they'll do a react to Plini. :)

[@NickAcker]

Don Kinney God I hope so! Plini and David are two artists that have changed my life.

[@Mr.CreamCheese69]

I've listened to gojira for 10 years. I'm 22 rn so that's when I was in middle school that I found these guys. They are absolutely incredible and they are absolutely astounding live

[@robmagrath9162]

Let me just say your reviews are great! So cool that this is one of the most epic reactions & reviews... This is the point when George became a true Metal head. You guys have a true understanding of music! Respect 🤘🏻

[@samlangerman9801]

Another awesome video! Next up...Lamb of God

[@collinmcbride26]

My personal pick is ghost walking I think they'd flip out on the intro to the song

[@TheGlashare]

This is the best video on youtube

[@damiendelvallee7256]

Yep, I watch it from time to time, just for the feels... ;)

[@Physics_Dude]

this, and their Holy Wars and Master of Puppets videos

[@TheGlashare]

Same here :)

[@misterjingles666]

Takes me back to the early days of discovering heavy shit. Nothing beats that feeling. "Fuck thats heavy"

[@zakdawson3494]

I'd love to see you guys do Gojira-Backbone. As much as y'all are digging on HMOTU, I think Backbone would blow your minds!

[@thatguybehindtheglass]

Backbone really is a great song. So inspirational for me.

[@jesswise8680]

That is a very good song !

[@mattjones6450]

You guys are killing the reaction game! Your genuine and pure reactions are so refreshing compared to all these fake reactions where the people just pretend to like the songs to keep people watching! The way you go in depth into what you really think about the songs is really enjoyable, and I think thats why the metal community, which is generally pretty judgemental, are supporting you guys so much! Keep it up! (btw, most metal elitists will give Gojira the thumbs up lol)

[@jesswise8680]

So true !

[@rfreeman057]

'Clearly excellent' haha, so glad that you guys get it. This shit goes so hard. You guys should listen to the whole album. It's really beautiful and so heavy.

[@josephpretorius8607]

Gojira has the most INSANE grooves. Saw them live with Mastodon in Rhode Island and I knew their big songs but not their whole discography. EVERYTHING SLAPPED! IT WAS INCREDIBLE. They absolutely blew me away

[@gnarkilleptic4871]

Out of all your amazing reactions, this is still the best one by far imo. I can't wait for Art of Dying and so many others

[@_leo.andre96]

Devin Townsend - Deadhead

[@chrishaze4891]

def need to check out some devin townsend

[@White2098]

Best live vocal holy shit

[@chrishaze4891]

the one that's live at royal albert hall especially

[@kylek7748]

Leonardo Flores Devin Townsend for life! There are too many to name

[@thebeave0630]

You guys are my favorite new channel. Its rare for me to comment on a video. Thank you!

[@jaycoss9417]

I'm really love that you two enjoy Gojira as much as I do. I just started listening to them within the last year and they have quickly became a top favorite metal band for me.
